An eventual rise in average global temperature by three degrees Celcius
isn't going to boil anybody's blood, and rising CO2 levels aren't going
to give anybody anoxia. The atmospheric oxygen content is about 21%,
and as we convert more of it to CO2 it is going down (and has been
measured as having gone down a bit, but by less than you get by going
from meteorological high to a low).
He's more likely to have succumbed to Covid-19 (which is still killing
people, but not the numbers we lost during the pandemic), and even more
likely to have decided that that this user group is a waste of
bandwidth. Your contributions certainly are - but they are execrable
enough to be worth jeering at.
Well done, Bill. That thesaurus you've obviously invested in is serving
you well in expanding your limited insult vocabulary.
I'm sure there's an English-language thesaurus somewhere around the
house - I can see a Dutch one from here (Synoniemen Wordenboek) - but I
don't need to use one to provided descriptive terms for your inanities.
So the Covid shot felled poor old Fred, then. Lord knows there were enough warnings against taking it from the internet cognoscenti but he presumably trusted CNN more and paid the ultimate price for his misplaced faith in
the legacy media. He will be missed.
Covid-19 inoculations killed perhaps one in 500,000 of the people who
got them. Your chance that Covid-19 would kill you even after you got
the inoculation was higher, but still way lower than the chance that
Covid-19 would kill you if you caught it, if you had avoided
inoculation, which is still a pretty effective - if less than perfect -
way of avoiding infection. As you get older your immune system get progressively less effective, and so do inoculations.
Fred is highly unlikely to have died of Covid-19, but it is a feasible explanation of why he gave up posting. > :(
Didn’t he leave when google groups dropped us?
Mon cher Piglet, much as I'd like to believe that, I fear we must simply accept Bill's view as being definitive this time. Even a busted clock is right twice a day.
My comment merely offered a couple of possible explanations for his
absence. You seem to have stopped reading after the first line, as you frequently do.
