Mote my eye, beam yours.

OK, I'll bite. What the hell does that mean?

That for you to call others silly or stupid or crazy is like Jesus's
story,
tend to the beam in your eye before worrying about the mote in mine.
Mote or moat? Neither makes much sense - but the latter makes some.

Lloyd, one of the stupider people here (which is saying
something). is saying that you should remove the 2x4 from your own eye
before worrying about the piece of sawdust in his.
mote is a small piece of dust. beam is a structural member.

cretatious? Is that like bodacious?

It's a lost cause guys, at the current growth rates, we'll reach
CO2 thermal saturation (around 600 ppm) long before any measures we
instituted today could possibly have their effects. and that's
assuming that everyone cooperated.
Global warming is happening, and it's going to happen to
completion, and there's nothing we can do about it. We need to start
building our cities on the assumption that cretatious conditions will
be coming back.
What we need to be worrying about now is reducing CO2 emissions to
a level that will allow the air to still be breathable in a few hundred
years.

We'll need confined space permits to go outdoors.

That's silly, and it's not constructively helping this topic one damn
bit, now is it.

How much of the moon's 2e20 joules is converted into global/tidal heat?

I have few 2x4s though lots of sawdust in my eyes, I also make more than
my fair share of mistakes, but that mascon moon of ours is still worth
2e20 jouels, and some of that energy gets into tidal/friction that's
unavoidably adding thermal energy to our environment (with or w/o the
impact of humanity).

When did that big old moon arrive?

How many times did it manage to impact us?

Exactly how salty and icy was our proto-moon?

And I seem to have a few dozen other similar questions and a few related
sub-topics.

See, those joules are converted into warp plasma and is stored for the time
when the moon is jostled loose and you need something beyond a tractor beam.

Thanks so much for your having proven once again, that apparently I'm
even more right than I'd thought.
