"Water will follow the Probe" : criminally stupid in 19th, globecidally stupid in 21st century

   You'd think the denier classes would learn something from the mess they made of the 19th century.
   Remember all their boosterish talk about "the rainfall following the plow" ?
   In fact, what little moisture that was held by the Great Plains & Prairies'  original grass and bush cover was released and lost into the atmosphere once industrial scale deep plowing was undertaken : cue the shots of the resulting Dust Bowl.

  But no, the spacer division of the denier classes are busy touting that there is water - lots of water - everywhere on our planet and moon neighbours, if only we probe deeper and deeper and deeper.
   Sort of like denying the Peak of conventional oil by pointing out that we are still bringing up quasi-oil-like-substances from 20,000 expensive feet below 5,000 feet of ocean-tossed water.
   Now NASA is licking at the fount of all money ( us the gullible public ) by claiming that there is lots of water is there to be had - under  a crater on the Moon.*
     Deep,deep, deep under the Moon - somewhere - we just know it - trust us: send only cash, no cheques please.
   Believe it, without first engaging your citizen forensic audit skills set - even for just a moment - and you will unconsciously slacken your efforts on the real crisis at hand : saving the only and the best lifeboat we have : Planet Earth.....

* The BUNSEN BURNER claims:
"Scientists estimate there could be as much as 100 gallons of ice inside the two-mile deep crater."
    That much eh ???!!!
    Hey satire is supposed to be my gig -  just back off will ya, you Bunsenites !!!!

Why My Urgency ?

Histories of WWII all start with the presumption that it was a war raged between humans and human ideologies, with Nature’s climate and geography as side issues easily surmounted.My blog, on the contrary will only accept that it was conflict between humans and their ideology that STARTED the war but that it was the barriers thrown up by Mother Nature (geography & climate) that turned it into a war that lasted between 6 to 15 years and expanded to thoroughly involve all the world’s oceans and continents. High Modernity may have started the war convinced that Nature had been conquered and was about to be soon replaced by human Synthetic Autarky and that only human Tiger tanks and human Typhoon planes were to be feared. But by the end, more and more people had lost their naive faith in Scientism and were beginning to accept that humanity was thoroughly entangled with both the Nature of plants, animals & microbes as well as the Nature of so called “lesser” humanity. By 1965, the world was definitely entering the Age of Entanglement. Billions still believed - at least in part -with the promises of High Modernity but intellectually & emotionally, it was no longer dominant...
