It is raining here again and being in the rain shadow, we don't get as much! Still can't see up the mountain and that is a good thing!

Ken, I think I am going to buy that other lens also. Have to quit talking to you. :biggrin: See you the next time through.

DianaT ... only wish you could attach the "smell" ... boy do I miss that ... :):)

Started falling around 10:30 pm ... last night here

Moderate for a while ... then off and on most of the night ... just overcast with a little "spitting" now and then .. and cool

Last week was above 90º most of the week ...

God got mad at us and made it quit raining? Maybe just to show us we can not control it and there is really no drought?

It started here (north SD county) at midnight, came down so hard it woke me about 2-3 am... and is still raining with some heavy stuff, as of 8:30am.

(Oh, and it 'never' rains in May in Southern California)!

Nature bats last!

Get the Government involved? In rain?I was going to comment that was one of the more stupid things DK has said...But in thinking about it, everything he says is pretty much in that category...I think the Government makes him do it...He badly needs help....Maybe Motoged could suggest someone...????


Not sure how you can possibly mis-read what I typed? My comment was that the people I was responding to are the ones who are lovers of BIG government, and that THEY must be in favor of controls, taxes, less freedom. They sure don't seem to trust God or Nature or know how to live withing the limits that are visible and naturally made? They claim man is greater than God/Nature, that man can change the climate's direction by becoming poorer (taxed)???!!! They also claim the sea levels are dangerously rising, yet in the past 50 years, we all can still go to the same places at high tide and have dry feet! This is the 'Chicken Little' drama, except instead of the sky falling, it is the oceans are rising.

Can anyone accept that change in Nature is normal and natural... man is not greater than the natural forces. To give government or politicians that much power over a made-up fear is just surrendering your freedom (and intelligence).


DK, I think this thread was just to make small talk about the weather. Why are you spewing nonsense?

No Chuckie, it not at all about feelings.

I only wish to open the closed minds of those who blindly believe anything told to them by big government politicians.

Question the nonsense. Saying the sea levels is rising dangerously when we can see it isn't, and saying man's activities change the climate (when the climate has changed without man many times) is nonsense.

Now, that all is my opinion (based on scientific fact and history)... and if you read my posts as much as it seems you do, then please read what I am replying to. I don't bring up the truth about this climate change hoax unless someone mentions it first. So my opinion is a reply... for 'equal time'. Unless you 'feel' Baja Nomad should only have liberal philosophy and no balance with facts?

All my threads on Nomad are about Baja travel, Baja history, Baja people. If nobody posts mis-information, then I am not compelled to provide correct information. Baja Nomad is a single most useful source of Baja information, in the world! It is only useful if the information is correct.


I believe this started with the 3rd post. unless of course saying it rains is a spark. While you believe you are the one carrying the truth burden, lets try this.

Although the climate naturally changes, man made influences are accelerating those changes. What data and history do you have that says that is not true?

Your last paragraph makes no sense. There are lots of sources of information out there. Certainly your threads are not the most important sources of information.

Time to climb down off our soapbox.

Yes, the third post was humor... I guess only us on the right have a sense of humor? The post said it's raining... and I said how can that be, then went on to report the rain I got so far.
Lighten up... and allow me to have a little fun here without you turning it into a political debate.

I am sorry to interrupt this thread but is it still raining in San Diego, that is what this thread is about or am I wrong and out of line here? :biggrin:

Sprinkling at 7:33.

Funny- I was always told talking about the weather was safer than, say....sex, politics or religion.

Oh well... times change.

Rain is a good thing, right? I think so, at least until it is posted about on this site, but God forbid DK should comment because then the four amigos come out blazing away. I have seen this kind of dumping on people on other boards and nothing good ever comes of it. This board ain't like it usta was. A few years ago there were many, many, people here who went out of their way to help anyone who needed help or guidance on all things Baja. While there are still people willing to help, you four added very little on this thread.

O Boy, here is a new target for you, so flame away and give DK a break. He might be actually trying to help someone with a Baja question.

I don't think DK needs any help posting his 10 posts per day. But you on the other hand...the rain effect you some how? Maybe you can help him with his hypothesis that the only change is natural change?
