Love it when it snows


Nothing quiets things down like a nice blanket of snow. The roof is muffled, and the forest too. But I think there may be even more going on. Doesn't snow often here, but every time it sure does seem like the power is cleaner. For sure the listening is better.

What scientific methods applied by mere humans would, in effect, change the solar cycles and the angle-relationship of the earth to the sun?

The answer, of course, is to raise taxes to the limit just short of revolution, introduce stifling regulations on the individual to reduce people movement, house the world population in high-rise buildings to avoid "Urban Sprawl," destroy evil capitalism and convert all of earth's societies into one enormous company store, from which, there would be no escape.

And when finally climate ceases to change, we can move to the next level and stop that pesky wind from blowing. 

I wish it would snow here. I think the dampening effect would lower my system's noise floor. Not likely though. The last time I remember snow of any consequence was in 1949 when I was a pup living in Santa Barbara, California. The Channel Islands were stunning, covered in snow.

The problem with the term "climate change" is that it should have been called "pollution and overpopulation." Because even those politically in denial of the former cannot deny the latter. 
And yes, snow in the woods is wonderful once the plows and snow machines are done.
I guess I shouldn't be surprised that some of the most ardent proponents of tweaks on this site have trouble with mainstream scientific thought.
