Love this! Your dripping sarcasm is like maple syrup on pancakes, and as on the mark as William Tell piercing the apple atop a climate crusader

As much as I love our equine friends I am quite looking forward to the carnage of a four horse pile-up on the Zero-Carbon carriageway

I wonder if we could convince Al Gore or Greta Thunberg to recite this wonderful piece...

Great. Thanks for getting my day to start well.

All cults eventually collapse under the weight of their lies. So how much longer can the climate cult persist? I'm worried that it can last for many more years, since they have control of the media, academia, government, Hollywood, etc...

So much for the four equestrians. After you finished assaulting them with rational, logical thought, they'll never be able to find their saddles again. And we know they can't ride bareback. I have a great idea for a tshirt. "Proud Pedestrian that Survived the Boiled Roast Apocalypse!" 🤘😎🤘

Fourth horse should have been "spotted or speckled" not pale... Just my thoughts... M

I love an apocalypse story. The grannies in the EU take the cake and symbolizes all the irony of the climate activist. Btw, I’m enjoying my month long, unseasonably cool spring in Texas. We even had a spectacular celestial show this week. No doomers here, just shaking our heads at the madness.

Those four equestrians are astride some Monty Python “Holy Grail” horse. Today, if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it’s probably something built by the Klaus of the WEF.

When a society can be made to fear a carbon atom, actually 1 part of 7500 of the molecular mix in our air and the essence of life, the reason life chemistry is called organic chemistry, that society is primed for manipulation.

In real life, a man can outwalk a horse over a long distance.

Love it - "The rider (on the black horse, settled science) keeps its finger on the scientific consensus (scales) pan at all times. If it lets go, the pan with the grain of scientific fact will send the consensus flying and we can’t have that." What a fantastic analogy, despite the fact that you must have meant it was the grain of fact that would go flying. It could also apply to the mRNA vaccines, nuclear fusion dreams, 20 ton backup batteries that will only provide 250KW for 4 hours, EV pickups that can't pull a trailer uphill on a cold day, and the hypothesis of evolution and that life miraculously and unscientifically came from non-life.

Love this - of course it's horses in the conversation... what's not to love? We are all trying to rein in those horses and their most useless of horsemen.... sorry equestrians.... but unfortunately they seem to be well out ahead for now.

The "grandma" ruling was a sad blow for us old ladies and I have to say these old rich ladies must be suffering from a large dose of dementia and hypocrisy as you pointed out. For they know not what they have done! The even more sad thing is that they have been played by the puppet masters and are to stupid to even realize! But they got their pictures in the paper, more of the Greta syndrome!

Waiting for the pile-up... not soon enough.... you are more optimistic than I am today and I hope those horses can just leave their demented riders behind and run free.

Irina, great writing. I'd ask you to marry me, but I'm 72 yrs young and going into my 51st year of being married to the best woman on earth.

Great One 😄. Much wealth and capital destruction in this fiasco of boondoggles.

VW probably at or near the top of the list. First their $38 Billion loss with Dieselgate, now EVs. Arrogance punished?
