    And Dion and the Timberlanes, before the Belmonts.

    Turns out I had the Rogues song on MP3 already, gave it a 5.

    That Dion thing is like a 2. They were a pop group like the fucking Four
    Coins or some shit I guess. I always knew of the record but don't think
    I ever listened to it before. It's fucking dire.

    Global warming has really changed the climate around here. It's been in
    the 60s most days in November so far, and we hardly had any cold days in October. Very little snow the last 2 winters at all. Just about 15-20
    years ago when I was working fall baseball games we used to freeze our
    asses off in October and November. This past October was warmer than
    April around here. Average daytime temps for October here were 65
    degrees.

    THe answer seems to me to be very simple in explaining but incredibly
    hard (maybe impossible?) in practice

    The USA needs to join the other huge country atmosphere polluters like Russia,China and India in cutting way down the amount of carbon dioxide
    in the atmosphere (and Taylor Swift & co need to ditch their private
    jets)

    That would have happened if Kamala had won, but Trump says that climate
    change is a hoax.

    released on Mohawk 105
    this 'shit' sound was for 50s suburban picket fenced whites
    Dion never met The Timberlanes, his lead vocal was added to
    existing pre-recorded tracks for his first release
    Dion said: The vocal group was so white bread, I went back to my
    neighborhood {The Bronx} and I recruited a bunch of guys, three
    guys, and we called ourselves Dion and the Belmonts

    The original Belmonts group consisted of Angelo D'Aleo (born Feb
    1940), Carlo Mastrangelo (Oct 1937 – Apr 2016), and Fred Milano
    (Aug 1939 – Jan 2012). They took their name from Belmont, the
    Bronx street in which Mastrangelo lived, known as the Little Italy of
    the Bronx.

    That would have happened if Kamala had won, but Trump says that climate >change is a hoax.

    ask Copilot:

    why might there be claims that climate change is a hoax

    response:

    1. **Economic Interests**: Industries reliant on fossil fuels, such as
    oil and coal, might oppose climate change policies that could impact
    their profits. These industries sometimes fund campaigns to spread
    doubt about climate science.

    2. **Political Ideology**: Some individuals might deny climate change
    because it aligns with the stance of their preferred political party

    3. **Misinformation**: Some people might be influenced by false
    information that downplays or denies the reality of climate change

    4. **Psychological Factors**: The concept of climate change can be
    overwhelming and frightening. Denying its existence can be a coping
    mechanism to avoid dealing with the anxiety and responsibility
    associated with it.

    Understanding these motivations can help address the root causes of
    climate change denial and promote more informed discussions.

    hard (maybe impossible?) in practice

    The USA needs to join the other huge country atmosphere polluters like
    Russia,China and India in cutting way down the amount of carbon dioxide
    in the atmosphere (and Taylor Swift & co need to ditch their private
    jets)

    That would have happened if Kamala had won, but Trump says that > >
    climate change is a hoax.

    I don't believe it's a hoax but the Earth has passed thru several severe climate change scenarios in the past (ice ages and suchlike) and
    returned to normal---but none of those past changes were man made.

    What's happening now is largely man made---but of course after such a
    change the Earth may well still return to normality but that scenario is
    hardly comforting when most--if not all--the world's population is
    already dead
