Preaching To The Choir -- But Even This Graph Got My Attention -- October 12, 2017

This is a NASA graph. Keep that in mind when looking at this graph. The graph is not from some crackpot -- unless of course ....

Anyway, it's a NASA graph.

Not only are sea levels falling, but sea levels have been "level" for the past year or so.

Source: iceagenow.

This has happened before. And, yes, the overall trend is UP ... at a rate of 3.4 millimeters / year.

• One year = 3.4 mm
• Ten years = 34 mm
• 100 years = 340 mm
• 100 years = 34 cm = 13 inches

From 1993 to 2016: a rise of 80 mm

• 80 mm = 8 cms over 23 years
• 3 inches over 23 years
• it seems technology should be able to handle 3 inches over 23 years (or simply not building on the beach)

I assume Algore has already added this graph to his Nobel-Prize-winning Power Point presentation. LOL.

North Dakotans Stand For The National Anthem

Great story at KFGO. Be sure to listen to the interview.

 

The message even garnered the attention of President Donald Trump, who has been critical of NFL players who take a knee in protest during the national anthem. Trump took to social media to recognize Hanson:

"Thank you Gene Hanson — a GREAT American (and farmer) who is standing up for our flag, our anthem, and our country!"
