RT @jk a lot of bad things that happen in the world have been prevented, or at least mitigated, by the fact that they have to actually be implemented by people, and achieving anything meaningful, good or bad, is hard work, at least organizationally, because it requires some degree of cooperation and agreement, coerced or incentivized or otherwise. but what if those costs just went down, to basically nothing?

I knew Kent Hovind was a bad, stupid man 30+ years ago, but I was not prepared to learn how horrible he was as a human being. The stories just get worse and worse.

That wonderful time of year when I hit the air quality website first thing in the morning.
