I thought the whole concept of global warming was the seas would rise but the water would be undrinkable and the rest of the world would fry and be unable to grow food due to constant cover of pollution of chemicals. Not that we'd drown.
Mr Wizard dispelled the notion of rising sea levels years ago. This is seriously one of the best videos to show the climate idiots.

 


Is there anything worse than the deep-thinking black person?


Horses and cheetahs are great for understanding why we use "horsepower" for cars instead of "cheetah power." Horses are like car engines: they deliver steady, reliable pulling power (torque) that’s perfect for consistent work, like hauling a carriage with four people through city traffic. Each extra horse roughly doubles the pulling strength, so two horses can handle stop-and-go driving without much strain.

Cheetahs, on the other hand, are built for speed, not endurance. They’re the fastest animals on land, but their strength (torque) fades quickly. It might take four or five cheetahs to match the pulling power of one horse, and even then, they’d be exhausted after a few minutes of starting and stopping. Cars need that horse-like torque to accelerate from a stop or climb hills, not just cheetah-like speed for cruising. That’s why "horsepower" describes a car’s ability to do work over time, not just hit top speed.

Hope this helps

The term “horsepower” was coined by Scottish engineer James Watt in the late 18th century as a marketing tool to help sell his improved steam engines.

Here’s how it originated:
  • Watt needed a way to explain the power of his steam engine in terms that customers could understand—especially those who used horses for heavy work like pumping water or pulling loads.
  • He observed that a typical draft horse could turn a mill wheel of a certain size and resistance about 144 times in an hour, which he estimated to be equivalent to 550 foot-pounds per second, or 33,000 foot-pounds per minute.
  • Based on this, Watt defined one horsepower as the ability to do 33,000 foot-pounds of work per minute.
 
To be tried in corrupt courts and everyone gets off Scott free...?

Double indemnity: Can't be tried for the same crime twice.
Yeah, I think it’s best that nothing’s done, that way they don’t get off Scott free. Gotta wait til the courts cleansing is completed. Where we at with that.
