"Scientists have tracked the fate of the Peyto Glacier in the Rocky Mountains for decades as a global reference point. It’s disappearing faster than expected — a warning sign for communities downstream."

(I'm a believer.  Last week I went up to Mt. Hood where I expected to see the glacier at Timberline Lodge, the "Magic Mile", elevation 6000 feet, the one I first hiked when I was ten years old and it wannit there, it had retracted to 9,000 feet)

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
