I hope to be the first to coin this new moonth name I am seeing. March, which is supposed to come in like a lion and go out like a lamb, was lion on both ends this year and April showers, as I recall, were not the entire months of March and April. We are wet and warm and that has made for some super nice days, things growing weeks earlier than "normal". We certainly had more April days in March than March days in April.
When living in an era during which no parameter may ever again be "normal", I can honestly say, it is probably way better than the alternative, which physical reality proves would be a mile thick ice sheet covering my property, in the next thousand or so years. It took almost half the fossil energy in the crust to do it, but we have staved off an ice age!
Burning through the fossil carbon on planet Earth not only has staved off the ice age that is supposed to be building, but heated the Earth instead, nothing about that is normal. Millions of years of solar energy charged, bio-batteries solar energy sequestered as carbon has been exploited as fuel. We cannot yet grasp, but perhaps those reserves were a precursor to life, guarding our species from Earth's internal radioactivity, shielding us from the solar wind at night or something. Perhaps those deposits help to create a magnetic shield or enhancement that was beneficial to human beings and other life forms.We can never know what we do not know.With the reserves half gone,"played out", in miner's terms, the debt for fossil energy exploitation will outlive reserves in many areas. This unpaid debt will dwarf the housing collapse.
I know that the business community loves stability, but change is the rule of nature. Apriarch makes good sense as a moonth, (who really cares if there's two of them, you see them together all the time, so it is already like a couple. Because if we're not going to honor it during Saturnalia, the world has to be turned upside down at least once a year! Why not now, when it can now be summer and winter all in the same day for two months straight!
