The worry is that if he’s relying on the neo-Nazis to set his agenda in this case, what other advice is he taking from them? Between them and the IPA it’s all getting a bit scary.

Rubbish. 70% of the world diet by weight is from wind pollinated grasses; wheat, barley, rye, rice, corn.... Then comes soy which is cleistogamous. Mostly 1st world luxuries are threatened, and even they are not all dependent on european bees - flies, beetles, wasps etc are also major pollinators.

People give me chocolate with nuts, marzipan and cherry ripes. I don't let it bother me because when I'm in a hurry and want to make a kind gesture I make mistakes too.

Yes. It’s very odd. No one has called me a libtard or paedophile or that I should die slowly of cancer. It almost makes me miss X.

So sad. Such a fantastic facility. It gives opportunities to researchers and students that aren’t available anywhere else. And where will the sea eagles nesting on the crane go?
