There was almost no regulation or enforcement of proper safety measures in this disaster. And as Rachel addresses, the clean up effort has been feeble.

Harvard astronomer Dimitar Sasselov claims it’s possible http://www.wilderness-sportsman.com/wsblog/2010/07/26/millions-of-earths-harvard-astronomer-dimitar-sasselov-claims-its-possible/ http://www.wilderness-sportsman.com/wsblog/2010/07/26/millions-of-earths-harvard-astronomer-dimitar-sasselov-claims-its-possible/#comments Tue, 27 Jul 2010 05:58:09 +0000 Mike http://www.wilderness-sportsman.com/wsblog/?p=7440

This is shocking news. According to the astronomer, the Milky Way galaxy is rich in earth-like planets.

The video is a fascinating watch/listen.

The victim seems really nice so I will withhold my usual and expected snarky comments.

I do have to say that I love how the bison just kind of revs up in place before bounding towards them. I laughed a bit there.

Sorry about the lack of updates, folks. As I said a couple weeks ago, I will be easing back into this. There will be daily updates in a couple months.

My question would be why is the Obama administration supporting this?

Their handling of this event has been atrocious.

The health care system in this country is a pile of garbage. This plan may not do everything everyone wants, but it’s progress and forward motion in a positive direction. Let’s hope the senate can pass their version as well.

Thought some of the readers might enjoy it(excuse the sloppy handholding as I was just trying to enjoy the day rather than busting out the tripod, mic pack and light pack).Winds were around 50 MPH and a light snow was falling:
