    Default Ozone layers sees 4% regrowth over last 13 years. So much for its immediate impending doom.

    For the first time in 35 years, scientists were able to confirm a statistically significant and sustained increase in stratospheric ozone, which shields the planet from solar radiation that causes skin cancer, crop damage and other problems.
    From 2000 to 2013, ozone levels climbed 4 percent in the key mid-northern latitudes at about 30 miles up, said NASA scientist Paul A. Newman. He co-chaired the every-four-years ozone assessment by 300 scientists, released at the United Nations.

    So...yeah.

    Well, I will give credit to the tree huggers who have correctly predicted global warming, protected the rain forests, drive Prius cars, and made sure jet airliners expel ozone protecting agents into the atmosphere.

    We barely understand why it does what it does, but we'll certainly take credit for it.

    Apparently you are watching hulu, as I just watched the same commercial. I tried to hug myself, then felt weird about it, not ghey, but kind of like that weird friend that wants to hug you, and you are kind of like...oh....hey...buddy. Yeah a handshake or something would suffice, but you're welcome.

    Nothing like black powder, pour some down the barrel, take a snort, and have a great time!

    In other news- arctic ice has increased as well... Any more false predictions from the enviro-hippies gonna be proven wrong? I think so...
