  1. Not so mysterious! Professor Kelly Redmond, a climatologist with the Desert Research Institute in Reno, has looked at wind formations in those mountains seeking answers. He told KNPR's State of Nevada that much of the problem in the Sierra Nevada is because of the wind. The mountain range runs almost perpendicular to the Jet Stream, that along with their shape, which is wedge-like, creates wild wind conditions. The winds are liftet smoothly on the west side and then have a very rapid decent with a tremendous amount of turbulence. A small plane, which must fly lower than commercial jets and doesn't have much power, can easily get caught in the airflow. It's believed that is what happened to adventurer and billionaire Steve Fossett, an experienced aviator, whose small plane went missing after takeoff from Nevada in 2007.

  2. The short answer would be "oil" I suppose...

  3. Mikael Gaiason Ha ha ha! Well, I also don't know much about flying, but what you say makes perfect sense. The unknown professor, who admittedly sounded as such do, a little in over his head, however reached the same conclusion: Stay out...

  4. Mikael Gaiason Well, I'm thankful for your insights and do share your dislike of the ocean of nonsense flooding the social media. I have a slightly different approach, which I'm sticking with: I reference abbreviations of articles I can find on subjects of interest to get feedback such as yours. That works for me. Asking questions gets more answers than I'm willing to sift through. I also think you should read his article before dismissing it wholesale. Reality is rarely mono-causal. Cheers!

  7. Mikael Gaiason Agreed, but notice I didn't say I got my information by making statements and getting feedback, I merely said I prefer that to asking questions. But I can break my habits easily: What's your take on the uss nimitz tic tac incident of 2004 – if you've noticed it?

  8. What worth a faith which can't withstand truth?

  10. While the globalists oligarchs wreck the world, these people shall prevail! The meek will inherit the Earth...

  11. No eruption of Krakatoa is recognised before 1883.  The 536-7 global famine is still assumed to stem from an eruption on Iceland on Wikipedia. This video is from 2017. Did the Krakatoa hypothesis not gain recognition?

  13. Dennis Weidner Suppose Churchill was smart and looking ahead a bit...

  14. Dennis Weidner I'm not denying a myriad of other reasons, just saying that without oil, no survival. Germany had already taken the southern Russian oil wells. The transatlantic supply lines were unsecure.

  15. Dennis Weidner Well, I happen to think Churchill had a very wide reaching and firm grasp on realities and possibilities even before silly Chamberlain returned from Berlin, waving his paper and declaring "Peace in our time". That's it from me.

  16. Too many yellow dots on the timeline for me...
