    @Jolly The point I’m making really does apply only to China.

    Only non-witches get due process.

          Different scales:

          India’s population is growing. China’s population is shrinking but its industrial energy demand is still formidable.

                Yes, there are hundreds of posts with various experts debunking this famous picture.

                They are, of course, all defending their entrenched position, no matter what.

                Let's just take the simple approach and look at the water.

                And we all know it goes up and down.

                  Yes, of course, with the tides as it always has - even since before the pilgrims probably landed elsewhere in 1620.

                    Plymouth rock - a/k/a American Stonehenge.

                    I'm sure there are worse tourist attractions, but I'll be buggered if I can think of one.

                    I was only joking

                      Newfoundland is a rock. The picture posted above looks more like someone’s suburban garden feature than a site let alone a geographic place name.

                            It is indeed. There are very few dug foundations where my family is from. The houses are anchored into the rock by cables, much like antennas or utility poles.
