Oh, as if, lechacal. Tell us where you got your info? Huh. Right, like you figured all that stuff out yourself. You have yet to quote your sources, jackass. And now your spouting it all off as your own ‘thoughts’. ROFL!!
true,
As I was eating my genetically engineered corn
the other night paired with hormonally modified beef,
I sang to myself over a glass of irridiated milk:
lech, stop being obtuse. Citation was requested for your theory that there would be a net carbon sequestration gain under your scenario.I now see your source…the wired article (thanks,cobble). Debunked.
All this talk of difficulties in English government formation on a RE blog put me in mind of this little song, by Leon Rosselson, although some of you may know the Billy Bragg version:
In 1649
To St. George’s Hill,
A ragged band they called the Diggers
Came to show the people’s will
They defied the landlords
They defied the laws
They were the dispossessed reclaiming what was theirs
We come in peace they said
To dig and sow
We come to work the lands in common
And to make the waste ground grow
This earth divided
We will make whole
So it will be
A common treasury for all
The sin of property
We do disdain
No man has any right to buy and sell
The earth for private gain
By theft and murder
They took the land
Now everywhere the walls
Spring up at their command
They make the laws
To chain us well
The clergy dazzle us with heaven
Or they damn us into hell
We will not worship
The God they serve
The God of greed who feed the rich
While poor folk starve
[Google it for the remaining three verses. “The World Turn’d Upside Down”]

Baloney.
Most Brits aren’t especially strong monarchists but people do like not having a politician as the head of state.
