Hope you're healthy and find your spark again aerohead.

I've learned tons of things over the years and have had an evolution in understanding that began with disbelief that human activity could have a measurable impact on global climate, to perhaps mostly accepting IPCC reported facts and analysis.

The topic still doesn't register in my top 10 most threatening list, but I'm willing to change my level of concern with an evolving understanding. That's not something that usually happens immediately, though I suppose it could if the signal is much louder than the noise.

As an aside, disagreement, stubbornness, and individuality is precisely what makes humanity special among the creatures. Life as homogenous drones in a bee colony is pointless. It's our various takes on our perception of reality that creates meaning and gives us cause. We need never-ending impossible problems to solve, like going to the moon.
