What a graphic! It really is a little blue marble. But as long as I live in the Northeast, I'm always ready for weather change. I think these others should get real jobs and a complete wardrobe. But mostly I'm worried about the bushy tailed rat. Who knew they were in such trouble. One can only surmise the impact of their loss on the environment.

But I know all the salmon are in Ireland, so they're OK.

Thanks for another thoughtful, balanced and interesting piece.
