If you woke up tomorrow and The Doors of Stone was totally complete on your computer, completely edited, exactly how you would have hoped (and why not? in 20 different languages... as long as we're dreaming).

What would you do? With that burden off your shoulders what would be the first thing you'd do to unwind?

If I focus I can feel my heartbeat in both of mine.

I have an interesting theory on that dull ache though. Remember when you first got it and it just hurt all the damn time? I think I just got used to the pain and now largely ignore it.

You probably don't have to deal with this part because I also have the fusion in my neck, but turning my head to look at something? Forget it. Just think how uncomfortable it is when you try to twist your back, and then realize that you turn your head to look at things all the damn time. And being a tall guy I regularly smack my head on low door frames and other obstacles, but these days whenever it happens it's like lightning all the way down my spine.. and it's pretty scary.

Plus side though: perfect posture.

Just getting used to it. Being very careful.

I have 2 spinal fusions from a car accident. L3-L5 and C5-C6.

Hi, has your organization made any specific climate predictions in the past based on greenhouse gas levels? If not, what predictions have been made by the researchers/organizations that you use as a reference point?

The types of predictions I am referring to are:

  • Global temperature or other weather patterns
  • Tied to a specific emission level or measured CO2 (or other greenhouse gas) levels

More specifically I am curious to find out if the work you are doing is based on a climate model that has made specific and provable predictions that have been reflected in real world measurements.
