I was in Ireland years ago. Someone told me that there were hot tubs up in Northern Ireland that were filled with seaweed. Slippery seaweed, loads of salt, water warmed up....

If you can't find someone to do the warm noodle treatment, maybe you can hie yourself to Ireland.

Report back to me?

Google tells me that our population is 10 times your continent's population. So I suspect we are much worse actors on the climate just by sheer volume.

I thought you guys were having record droughts down there? I don't follow things that closely -- I get sad and overwhelmed.

The activists who have hope and keep fighting are my heroes....

Yeah. San Francisco isn't that affected by earth tilt.

I forgot about the flip of the seasons.

Every year, I get giddy with joy on the first day of winter, because I KNOW THE DAYS ARE GETTING LONGER. I might not see the difference immediately, but I know we are "on the mend."

Conversely, I get a tad bit sad on the first day of summer. Because I know the days are beginning to get shorter. It isn't a Newtonian "equal and opposite reaction" -- after all, it is still light out at 9:45 pm the next day. There is a soupcon, an egg wash, a slight breeze of sadness knowing that we have reached our apex and are headed downhill.

But for you? First day of summer is just the first day of summer, at that latitude.

Scary temps down there. And here our short-sighted, bought-by-big-money-interests-polticians are fighting the reality of climate crisis even as you guys bake.

My apologies from my continent to yours.

Hey! You too, to you and your family.

I live pretty far north -- almost Canada -- and we have pretty dramatic swings in the length of our days.

My favorite salutation, which I made up myself, that brings genuine joy to one's entire being if you live like this....

HAPPY RETURN OF THE LIGHT!!

Don't know if you are close enough to the South Pole for that to be meaningful.

If not --

An American Merry Christmas to you and yours.

A treat for you!!!! http://videosift.com/video/An-Animated-Nutcracker-as-in-Hip-Hop-Animation

I was on vacation and away from a computer. YES!!! With your help, these cool dancers are enshrined forever on the great and mighty sift!

Thanks again.

Thanks, my friend.

I think this vid is too ... specific to our personal love of dance.

I'm just happy you got to see it.

I'm not so sure this will be popular.

You and me? Yes ma'am!!!
