Chicken Little -The Sky is Falling

Hey, I thought the Sun was going to blow up all our computers and phones today, and we were going to see the Northern lights in the California. What happened??? I been standing around waiting for the show to start. :lol:

Bajajorge - 3-8-2012 at 10:16 AM

Just like Al Gore with his global warming :barf:

scam.(40s in northern Baja last night) It ain't gonna happen. :bounce:

Warming it isn't but changing it is. Google a temperature change map for say the last hundred thousand years. Along with temperature variations come rainfall changes. We should be digging canals to pass water from the far north, and preparing for sudden drought.

Don't know what your latitude (not 'attitude', I can sense that) is, but here at 43ºN the Aurora Borealis was slightly visible this a.m. about an hour after midnight but weak—owing mostly to the bright moonlight.

It's all about the latitudes....and the thickness of the atmosphere.......and current angle of deflection (if I remember that term correctly).....Wonder if the Southern Hemisphere gets an Aurora like the Northern Hemisphere gets?

If I remember correctly, the polar ozone holes allow more of that plasma stream to enter our atmosphere....

My Pila pump burned out last night. I wondered what caused it.....

The future? Water pipelines from the northwest to the southwest. Too many people living in areas that don't have enough water to support them. They're only a couple of years of drought away from disaster.

Wouldn't it be cheaper & smarter to just move like they did in the good ol days when this happened??? Man will adjust---he always does (or he dies). The World can only hold so many people-----and it always takes care of itself in spite of "man".

If one were to develop believable scenarios around the future of water in California, I would be sure to include the fact that at this moment armed terrorists paramilitary thugs are planning to to take, by force of arms, that part of California which includes: Shasta Lake, Lake Oroville, Whiskeytown Lake, Trinity Lake, Eagle Lake, Lake Almanor, Upper and lower Klamath Lakes and all the associated rivers. Naturally, their only strength is to try to hold California hostage for its water. Taking our water back is likely to be muy feo.

Exit 595 south of Williams is their established southern border, and that is the likely location or one exit south, for Interstate 5 to become a border crossing. The rail lines would be controlled here too.

The northern border is an hour north of Medford Oregon.

I can't make this crap up!

www.jeffersonstatemilitia.com

Scroll down and find the picture of a guy, Jim Mark, who has warned the honest police that he won't be taken alive, with his good buddy the present Sheriff of Shasta County.

Yes, southern California, your water is not just in jeopardy from drought.

Barry A. - 3-9-2012 at 06:45 PM

Vag---------Owens Valley (Eastern Sierra) has been in that camp for over 70 years-----has NOT done them any good---------the water still just flows south---------it is just a channel for a lot of frustration, it would appear.

Barry...YOUR Sheriff is posing with a crazed rebel gun man who is openly encouraging people to shoot GOON game wardens. You don't seem to be concerned.

The water comes later.....

Vag-------I am obviously "out of the loop" on this one. I had not heard a thing, but we don't listen to local news, only National and International news. I don't even know who our "Sheriff" is. But what you are relating is crazy, of course, if true, and I don't think you would post it if it wern't true, or at least pointing out the smoke of a possible fire?!?!?!?!?.

I will look into it. Thanks.

Barry

Barry A. - 3-9-2012 at 09:21 PM

Vag--------I made a few phone calls. Our Sheriff (Shasta County, CA), Tom Bosenko, has no known connections with the Militia guy you are talking about, and nobody that I know of connects Tom with this guy or the "State of Jefferson" movement (which has been going on for decades), and I just talked with one of Tom's best friends to confirm this.

What ARE you talking about???

wessongroup - 3-9-2012 at 09:28 PM

Barry, YOU should know how "locals" feel about the FED's .... :lol:

Sat Zap ?

No loss of any Dish Net service for us.

Barry A. - 3-9-2012 at 11:25 PM

Charter internet and telephone services were defunct for about 3 hours on last Wed. here in Redding, CA---------who knows why, and nobody is saying that I have heard. Charter TV worked fine, tho.

Barry

vgabndo - 3-10-2012 at 01:22 PM

Barry, you are correct, the "Sheriff" that the terrorist is associated with is not local. I jumped to that conclusion because the "militia" were such big supporters of the politicizing of law enforcement that Mack was local.

If the Sheriff of Shasta County is unaware of www.jeffersonstatemilitia.com then shame the bloody hell on him!

Did you open the website Barry?

If your Sheriff can't read that secret rebel code, why not? Don't they have mutual aid agreements with government entities that are in the business of breaking terrorist codes?

Yes, the State of Jefferson was a sleeper cell for a long time. It now has its own army, and they are totally unafraid.

How the hell can anyone believe that Criminal Code Section 11460 (at least) does not apply on a regular basis.

I'm sorry to have falsely accused your Sheriff. Perhaps I just used the wrong charges?

Amigos, I know this isn't a chat room. I'm sorry I thought the thread was a non-story, and didn't respect it. I'm out.

Dude - we'll still be able to fish Eagle Lake, right????

vgabndo - 3-10-2012 at 02:12 PM

Oh man I sure hope so. I've been a loyal Californian since 1943, and grew up in California State Parks. I really really really don't want Civil War II.

Oh, I heard that there might have been lapses in cell service out that way!!! :lol:

Man has only been around for some 250,000 years, not much of a record to make "change" predictions on.

But we do agree on the planet's ability to survive, with or without man. As George Carlin use to say, Man is but a flee on the planet and won't matter much in the long haul.

Ahhhh, but the geologic record goes back almost forever, and there is LOTS in that record to "make predictions" on. :spingrin:

Sure, you can fish it. Can't float a boat in it right now, but you can fish it.
