Common sense and taking "response-ability" have been blown away by
this 'Siberian' blast. Should we blame the nanny state, media
exploitation, or marketing hype? I think I'll just ignore it all and

Currently +6.1 C, DP +2.3 C, NE'ly 04KT gust 17KT in balmy South
Devon.

If all mankind were to disappear, the world would regenerate back to
the rich state of equilibrium that existed ten thousand years ago. If
insects were to vanish, the environment would collapse into chaos. ~
