By Binoy Kampmark, published 7/8/2018

Humans are a funny species. They create settlements along fault lines that, on moving, can create catastrophe, killing thousands.

Diver, one day you'll have something positive or useful or actually helpful to say or show normal human empathy for the less fortunate or those born different. I just won't hold my breath waiting.

You'll have a nice day now y'hear.

Al, I don't think this site is a venue for sympathetic outlooks. That's what's good about it...

Most observations about weather are hysteric Eurocentrism. They have an annual weather pattern, we don't. Australia has a strong near decadal pattern, where annual cycle is dominated by years of dry and then years of wet. Field courses for 20 years demonstrated this, year after year of tinea from soaked boots only to be remedied by year after year of stinking heat.
