Now we know!

Those brilliant people who figured out that humans (and now animals) are causing climate change which will warm up the planet, melt polar ice, cause oceans to overflow, etc., etc., have further enlightened us.

After setting in motion foolishness that will condemn us all to driving golf cart-sized autos on our Interstate hiways, the latest claim is that the real problem is animal flatulence. So, they are threatening what some in the U.S. Congress are calling the "Cow Fart Tax"!

There are a lot of cows in America (not to mention hogs, sheep, etc.). One dairy not far from my home, has some 30,000 cows! But that is nothing to the number of bison who once roamed the Great Plains. We are told that the herds numbered in the millions. Millions!

Imagine the quantities of methane gas they expelled. Since we now know that that gas causes global warming, the warming must have been intense in ancient America. All of the present day U.S. and Canada must have been tropical.

That, then, explains why there were so many palm trees - even alligators - in Minnesota and North Dakota!
