After having seen the average elevation there and how flat everything is, I believe it. It's just that at my age it was go now or never.

I went to Florida last year to fulfill a life long dream of visiting Cape Canaveral. I got to watch a Falcon 9 launch and go on a guided tour with a former astronaut.

Windsor doesn't have that.

I work in a Costco. The computer system we use is the AS 400 system that was originally developed in 1985 and it runs on thin client machines with Win11 on them.

That it doesn't explode into a million pieces amazes me every day.

I was one of the million purchasers of the game yesterday. It's actually quite good.

I have friends in the US. I visit them, not their country.

I live on Vancouver Island. I got to eat at a Waffle House for the first time last summer. One of the ones on Cocoa Beach FL. It was glorious.

Try paying rent on that "damn job" and you'll know why no one is taking it.

So you admit that he is making a correct statement here.

The point I'm making is that ad hominem attacks regarding an accurate statement take away from you and your legitimate argument making people less likely to consider what you have to say.

But... is his statement wrong?

Are we talking 10 to the 9th power or the 12th?

I also did some reading up on this. I live in British Columbia and reforestation is a big deal. Apparently a tree planter can plant 2,000 seedlings a day. More if the terrain is good and they're experienced. So yeah, I can see it now.

Though I still wonder about the survival rate of the plantings, but How question is indeed answered.

That's still over a billion trees a year. Actually that's over 1,500,000,000 trees a year. Again...HOW?

And this begs a side question. Out of those 78 Billion trees, how many are alive now?
