nipper Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 When weather events get conflated with climate, it might be useful to remind the simple folk about grade 7 lessons. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-04-23/why-it-wont-stop-raining-la-nina-climate-driver/101008962 And, a bit of geomorphology might help. It is a floodplain, folks. With an altered ecosystem, turned to pasture not treed, and urban engineering stopping percolation, channeling with roads, structures and acres of concrete. Plus a deforested hinterland allowing run off. Do Not Build on a Floodplain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henrietta Posted Friday at 12:54 AM Share Posted Friday at 12:54 AM And just in case you thought that you'd heard everything weird ........

birnam Posted Saturday at 12:15 AM Share Posted Saturday at 12:15 AM Is this weird? APnews is reporting an Indian couple is suing their son and daughter-in-law $675 000 (US, presumably) for failing to have a grandchild after 6 years of marriage. Their justification seems to be they paid for their son's education (he's a pilot) and they organised the marriage. A court has accepted their petition and is set for a hearing. Geez, don't p*ss off mum and dad in India. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
