Castro's Favorite Color

Notes from Howard's Sabbatical from Working. The name comes from a 1998 lunch conversation. Someone asked if everything man knew was on the web. I answered "no" and off the top of my head said "Fidel Castro's favorite color". About every 6-12 months I've searched for this. It doesn't show up in the first 50 Google results (this blog is finally first for that search), AskJeeves says it's: red.

Why So Many Climate Scientists Have Stopped Downplaying the Climate Threat

Climate Progress wrote 'Hug The Monster': Why So Many Climate Scientists Have Stopped Downplaying the Climate Threat. It's seriously depressing but should be required reading.

It points to two articles. An Illustrated Guide to the Science of Global Warming Impacts: How We Know Inaction Is the Gravest Threat Humanity Faces will scare you and ‘Hug the Monster’ for Realistic Hope in Global Warming (or How to Transform Your Fearful Inner Climate) will help you face the fear.
