At least the cult of global warming is motivated by money but at least they think their doing the right thing.
The jab industrial complex is motivated by money and doesn't care if you "die suddenly", if they somehow really do believe they are doing "the right thing" well so did the Third Reich.
Pharma wants you to survive so you can continue receiving ineffective jabs.

Not enough die suddenly to effect the bottom line. The ones that do are far far offset by all the people who now are on blood thinner or need other heart failure meds, liver meds, have kidney damage or need diagnostic and/or technical assistance to reproduce.

What I am wondering at the moment: Would a tsunami a quarter-mile tall advance as a vertical wall, a convex face, or more like a low-flying cloud?

I assume convex face for all the reasons waves travel that way. Friction at the surface slows the water nearest to it, while the water at the top is less affected by the friction, finally getting ahead of the water below and curling over.

Then again, water that tall starts getting affected by wind, so who knows.

A perpetual breaker sounds a lot like an atmospheric ocean.



Any alien mothership lurking at the Earth-Sun L3 Lagrange point are toast.

So while we're all focused on propellors in head-on collision with a quarter-ton of liquid, there was Solar Polar Vortex that didn't make the news.

But good news now we can worry about Miyake events too.

I believe that it would all depend on the shape of the underlying sea floor/ coastline.
That was true at Fukushima and the surrounding areas in Japan.

Jeez louise, had to think about this way too much. Until the sea floor gets too shallow, it would be just a hump like most ocean swells. Dont know where or why, but eventually the swell gets compacted and grows taller. Really tall waves do the crest over thing forming the tube Haven't seen anything that works differently, but suppose if you spend all day searching you tube.......

Wasn't that much of a think, but still way more than I should have done.

If your judgmental, here's the Heartland Institute on Wikipedia

A NASA engineer at the Fifteenth International Conference on Climate Change (ICCC)

6:23 - the most important bodies in our
6:25 - universe are the Sun and the Earth


No disagreement about the rest of his presentation, but Jupiter is the elephant in this particular room.
