To some species, vomit, insects, etc. are a food group. :D

lol ... or a combo of them ...

lol Kale

I dunno. It just doesn't seem like it needs saving for some reason or other. lol

uhuh whatever you say Mr. Pot. lol.

Oh, I take it seriously, but that doesn't mean I have to stick my lower lip out and stamp my feet. and hold my breath till I turn blue.

Lighten up fer f'ks sake.

Weird around here, too. Today, it is cloudy and 18 right now. Usually it is fairly cool and rainy till middle of June but not this cool. April was warmer during the day. Lucky if we get much fruit if the bees can't learn to put parkas on.

lol Thanks for the tip but I think we'll stick to harvesting fruit n raising chickens.

Step 1: Develop a pseudo-science belief in a particular point of view (e.g. that human pollution does nothing to the planet); Step 2: Convince yourself that you are morally and intellectually superior to those who hold a different view, since your view is naturally “right” and “good”, and the...

Young ones can. The fungus has ways around the trees natural polyphenolic defenses; the beetle being one of them. Really? That's no compensation to the faller who lost his $300/day job to go earn $20/hour fixing small engines or $15 / hour tossing lumber around at a building supply center.

Warmer winters is related, though. Fire alone can be enough to limit spread. Partially; they also get weak because of the fungus.

Forest fires return nutrients to the soil too. Trees die, bushes die, other plantlife dies without disease, infestation, fire, etc. too. So what?

uhuh It isn't the fungus that kills the trees, it's the beetle, the fungus just weakens the natural defenses of the trees. Read up on it yourself. Genome of blue stain fungus evolved to bypass tree defense in mountain pine beetle epidemic: UBC research « UBC Public Affairs You said a couple...

And many people who do research. Is that what you think? I do know more than some people, though. I am intelligent, I read, and I observe. Yup. As far as I saw, no-one said the massive infestation wasn't natural. That is one thing that slows their spread if the temperature drops quickly enough...

That's not just "somewhat true". It is one of the main reasons for the unprecedented expansion of the mountain pine beetle.

Yeah, and ....? 4 degrees above absolute zero is 4ºK I have and the mesosphere does not get down to 4ºK.
