Joe and I will just sit quietly and watch, if you don't mind.

#9  My rhought when I saw this on news crawl on GMA was "What manmade thing could sterlize the area?" Who says climate is the only thing that could make things "hot". As the joke after 9/11, get worried when the marines are issued Windex!

#8  Middle East is already too hot for human. A large majority of the ones living there seem to go bonkers fairly readily.

#7  Just like there are no more ice cubes floating in the Arctic. What? That prediction didn't pan out either?

#5  Good for the Arabs that they have lots of oil so they can keep their air conditioners running. If they wanna move somewhere else, let them have Antarctica.

#4  Predicting the future is so simple. After a few searches:
In May 1987 the New York Times (NYT) closed 47.67 $US(1987) with inflation (another search) that is 103.15 $US(2015). If they opened today at $12.75 $US(2015)... Extending this linear progression by 2020 (or thereabouts) they will be worthless. So if you hold (NYT) sell, sell, SELL!

#3  A second order abstraction based on a worst case scenario projected eighty years into the future... of a model that does not predict the present pause. Useful as an exercise, perhaps, and as yet another demonstration that the New York Times completely fails to understand how science works.

#2  OTOH NASA, C2cAM, WORLD MILITARY FORUM > EARTH'S GRAVITY IS PULLING APART THE MOON: LUNAR SURFACE HAS 3,200 CRACKS + COUNTING.

Whaddya know, so in the Year 2030 when Guam + World Residets look up + see explosions on the Moon, IT WASN'T THE SUN OR A TEXAS-SIZED ASTEROID THAT DONE IT BUT GOOD OLE' MAMA EARTH???

Personally, I'm still betting on the Sun + Sun-led changes to planetary system gravitational fields.

#1  Wehell, looks like the people at CIA, NASA, + SPace Perts finally got around to see "THE AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON", espec the end scene.

As Solar activity/changes steady intensifies the heating of Terra Firma/Gaeia, THE SCENARIO IS THERE THAT IT MAY NOT BE JUST THE PERSIAN GULF THAT GETS TOO HOT FOR HUMANITY.
