Earth Hour 2009

This year we where actually home during Earth Hour.
Unfortunately we all most forgot about it.
We had my brother and his wife over for dinner when, my wife realized that we had missed the beginning of Earth Hour.
We hurriedly ran around our apartment turning off lights and lighting candles.
With only a half hour remaining, we sat by candle light and continued to enjoy each others company.

Maybe next year we will go dark for the entire hour.

The state of evolution in Canada.

Looks like we're split almost down the middle on the acceptance of evolutionary theory, http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2009/03/oh_canada_canadawhen_will_you.php

I guess it's better than the numbers in the U.S.

It also appears as though our science minister is an anti-science "wackaloon", http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2009/03/you_have_our_sympathies_canada.php and http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20090317.wgoodyear16/BNStory/National/home

Is Canada "enjoying" a new dark age?

To put it bluntly, we are screwed.

Is this a warning of the coming chaos and possible breakdown of civilization?

Military readies reservists for threats to 'domestic front'

Is this the realization of the beginning of the police state?
Is our government so bold that they can finally reveal their hidden agenda?

Yes and no.

Yes they are bold. The story they tell us is the type of story we want to hear.
They are doing all of this for our own protection.

No they are still hiding the real reason why they believe this is necessary.

There are many signs that point to the possibility that Ottawa is getting ready for the coming economic collapse and the civil chaos that may occur as a result.

Happily enough the government is reassuring us that our deposits are safe by running commercials to inform us of the CDIC's commitment to insure our savings.
Why are they telling us this now?
Are they afraid of a run on the bank?
Most people don't even have savings, just lots of debt.

Then this recent story about reservists being retrained as domestic military police.

Maybe I'm wrong.

But, I will be keeping an eye out for other signs, just in case.

Asteroid 2009 DD45,

Asteroid 2009 DD45 just passed by the Earth. Closer than the orbit of the Moon and about twice the distance of a geostationary communications satellite, 74,800 km.

This is a new one for me.

Yesterday I heard a new excuse to support the argument that humans are in no way responsible for contributing to global warming.

Underwater volcanoes.

I guess they couldn't convince any sane person that land based volcanoes are responsible for global warming, so now deniers are looking underwater.

It's just amazing to watch the "wheels" of pseudo-science in action.
