I like the scientific research used to determine that, but really, what use is that information today?
That's like spending time and money to discover that the Wright Brothers only got off the ground because of the "butterfly effect" the day before.
In other words, it's info destined for a Jeapardy clue! |
The scientists got together and said, "Hey, when we said the globe was warming with potentially catastrophic effects, nobody believed us."
"Next time, we should work on something about the Titanic, people eat that stuff up. Then we can pitch our findings to some production company, and make some folding green."
