I am going to fall asleep in front of the tv. Get some much needed rest. Then up at midnight to do my assessment.


Is USR available to enter Australian politics as an MP.

USR's narcolepsy could be an advantage. USR can't make mistakes when he is asleep.


If I enter politics anywhere, it would be too soon.

I fell asleep for 15 minutes in front of the tv. Then I got up and went to have a decent sleep in bed. Got quite a lot done.

And in other news, The New York Times, as beloved of JM, claims vanilla beans are dying out, due to climate change, citing 2017 figures from a Madagaskan cyclone.

However, in the real world production has almost doubled since 2000, according to UNFAO.

Poor JM. Complaining of no link. He was obviously undone by his search engine.

Poor JM. Now he says it doesn't reall say that, but carefully omits what it does say.

The vanilla is not 80% grown in Madagascar. In fact it is about 47%.

There is so much vanilla being grown it has impacted prices. Whether Queensland grows or not is immaterial. Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin

More from the article  -

" This supreme finickiness makes it unusually vulnerable to the growing shocks of climate change and deforestation."

"Most people I know who brood and despair over climate change might know that extreme weather could soon threaten crops like corn and coffee. "

Corn and coffee are at risk? JM, Corn and Coffee are also grown in Australia. Grin Grin Grin Grin
