I worked in a produce department for over three years and yeah, they really pushed cosmetic.

The first permanent English settlement in the New World was Jamestown in 1607. That's a little over 400 years ago. The CSA lasted 4 years. That's 1% of the South's existence, yet without it they can't find heroes?

What about the great leaders of Civil Rights? MLK among others prominently came from the South. Don't be ashamed they were needed, be proud their movement succeeded, as racism isn't bound by geography. It lsadlt lives in all areas of the US to this day.

What about the South's great contributions to culture and art? Mark Twain is considered one of the more notable American authors. Harper Lee wrote an excellent book still significant to this day. Jazz music was born in the South and made famous by Louis Armstrong. Rock music was influential to the youth of the 20th century with Elvis as the king. Looking for pop music, try Brittany Spears (avoid the crazy meltdown phase though). What about Oprah being a multi-billionaire entertainer?

Look to Florida to see Cape Canaveral, a gate to the stars and beyond. It's led from Houston, a mighty metropolis...the fourth largest in the entire country.

The South has great food and music yes, but it has so much more. Don't let people like Lee and Stone wall be your heroes when the South has so much more

Hello Mr. Solheim! Hope your day is going well. Couple questions for you.

  1. Would you say that global population size or the lifestyles people are living contributes more towards climate change?

  2. What are your thoughts on Thorium based Nuclear Power?

There seems to be a lot of money involved in producing clickbait news or biased news compared to more objective news. Do you think that's because people prefer a more convenient half truth than one that could be inconvenient? If so, how do you combat that? News providers generally get their funding through advertisements and they'll go where the most eyeballs are.

Sorry if that was phrased weird!
