[quote]Russia? or the USSR?[/quote]
Let's be honest. There is very little difference. Just call it Moscow where the head of the snake lives. What the whole Ukraine debacle is about is 1991 when Ukraine voted to leave the USSR. Everywhere in Ukraine voted for this. Even the Crimea (including ...

I've never taken a bus in CR, but have driven a lot. If you are going to the Osa Peninsula there are flights to Puerto Jimenez which I have done. I'd much rather do that than take a bus. Puerto Jimenez is across the bay from Golfito and a little smaller city. Small plane and the airport is smal...

Yep, most of our fossil fuels were layed down around 360 million years ago, when CO2 in the atmosphere was 4,000 PPM. Life did awesomely. The REAL problem is that the Earth is in an ice age cycle, and another is due within a few thousand years. Why would we want to maintain the ice ages?...
