I came here to post about the Noah Event, but need to address this:
Quote:
They're nuts and they're out of touch with reality and the world just doesn't work the way they think it does.
The funny thing about 'the way the world works' is that it do be like that.The trick is that it can mirror your preconceptions as well as mine or anyone else's all at the same time. It's pretty slick, Bucky Fuller called it interaccommodative.

We see what we want to see and argue about perspective*.



Thanks to Irving Finkel we know now that Noah's Ark was round.


We also now know that the famous Kraktoa eruption was a fraction of the one in 536C.E. hwww.youtube.com/results?search_query=536+year

Looking back at the last few years ... it coulda been worse.

edit: *I am listening to Scott Adams and he makes the same point, from a Simulationist perspective.
