Good news. Word has it, that Usama Bin Laden's son is dead. $1 million dollar bounty was placed on him. I wonder who gets to collect it?

No honor among thieves, probably one of his relatives.
 
I want veteran's benefits that my great grandfather didn't get after he fought for the north in the Civil War.
 
Are the so called "Native Americans" really native?

We haven't heard about this in the mainstream media for some reason but I have been aware of this for a while. I originally stumbled across this when I became fascinated with the effects of the collapse of the Laurentide Ice sheet about 15,000 years ago, the formation of the Great Lakes, the effects on sea levels on human populations in Europe and the finding of and dating of human artifacts in America around that time. The other fascinating thing is the discovery of the Great Lakes "Stonehenge" believed to be 10, 000 years old. Quite a coincidence huh?

Apparently, the current population of what we call here in America as the "Native Americans" weren't really the first to live here at all as Europeans predated them. I have wondered if the current people we now call native Americans annihilated the European "Original Americans". One article below suggests that could have happened. I guess we will never know.

One thing is certain and it is that we should be looking off the coasts, pretty much everywhere, for human artifacts as the sea levels were lower then.

Can't remember where I read it, but remains of human settlements have been discovered off the eastern US coast...in about 300' of water.

Interesting when you look at a world elevation map, including ocean depths. You realize a lot of today's coastlines were a very long distance from the coasts which existed back then.

Until some time between 18000 and 9000 years ago, present day Tampa/St Pete was maybe 200-250 miles from the GoM, and Miami was probably 100 or so miles from the Atlantic. Prior to the Holocene, there were no "British Isles" because what are today the British Isles were part of mainland Europe. Every single coastal shelf that sits in less than ~320 ft of water was dry land during the Pleistocene. When you look at any elevation map, you realize that's a lot of land which was inundated when the last ice age ended.

Miami sits on a geologic formation called oolite. Oolite can only form under water. So some time prior to the Pleistocene, present day Miami was still 100 or so miles from being on the coast, except it was under the Atlantic.

The seas rose somewhere around 120-150 meters since the end of the Pleistocene, and most of that melt occurred over a 9000 year period, as indicated above. If all the world's surface ice were to melt tomorrow, it's estimated that the seas would rise about another 70 meters. Put another way, about 2/3 of the ice which existed during peak extent in the Pleistocene had already melted before industrialization began. A VERY long time before industrialization.
 
One of the hot topics for the Democrats running for POTUS is forgiving college loans for the masses. I just read this morning where Chase Bank forgave all credit card debt for cardholders in Canada. My guess is that it was a cheaper option and also will generate some goodwill. Chase had closed down their credit card business in Canada.

What sums up this entire topic is a quote from one of the youngsters whose debt was forgiven:

https://www.usatoday.com/story/mone...es-all-credit-card-debt-customers/1964419001/

Christine Langlois, of Montreal, told CBC she stopped making payments on her card five years ago. A 24-year-old university student, she said: "It's kind of like I'm being rewarded for my irresponsibility."

No kidding, sweetheart!

Normally, adults are against rewarding irresponsible behavior.

If all the ice melts then we're going to have to build REALLY tall water towers and fill them with the excess seawater. :D

Is this the human settlement you're recalling?

We've paid off our credit card balance each month for the last, ummm let me see, 40+ years. I feel like an idiot.

Adults maybe, but not governments! They thrive on it!
