105. Neocons are destroyers ..... Rarely do I hear birds singing in NJ/Central --
I'm always aware when I go to Boston of birds singing --

About 15 years ago, I suddenly realized as I was driving on highways that there was only a thin band of trees left on the side of the highway -- that's all. That's all folks!!

At first when I faced the full impact of what we had done to the planet, I thought we'd be gone and the planet would go on. However, what we have done looks like we're going to be taking the planet with us!!! The planet may not keep turning and there may not be a new opportunity for animal life and nature to recover from our species' onslaught.

When Al Gore testified this year before the House and Senate . . . . as he began his Senate testimony he opened with new information about the increasing "shaking of the planet." He never got back to the subject. However, for one . . . the dams and reservoirs which our Army Corps of Engineers has built over the last half century and more are impacting the rotation of the earth.
I don't know what specifically Gore was going to say or what he'd attribute it to, but that's one cause. He did say that these reports of increasing shaking were from seismic records.

We may also have already polluted the outer atmosphere with nuclear weapons/poisons.
