Inconvenient Snowing
It snowed again around Tokyo last night. It is not only I that think the global warming has already stopped, since it has snowed more often around Tokyo this year than in previous years.
As too many people are shouting, "CO2, CO2, Global Warming, Emission Right Trade!!", I like to balance the situation with the following theory:

Earth on the Brink of an Ice Age
The earth is now on the brink of entering another Ice Age, according to a large and compelling body of evidence from within the field of climate science....
Ice cores, ocean sediment cores, the geologic record, and studies of ancient plant and animal populations all demonstrate a regular cyclic pattern of Ice Age glacial maximums which each last about 100,000 years, separated by intervening warm interglacials, each lasting about 12,000 years.
Most of the long-term climate data collected from various sources also shows a strong correlation with the three astronomical cycles which are together known as the Milankovich cycles.
The three Milankovich cycles include the tilt of the earth, which varies over a 41,000 year period; the shape of the earth’s orbit, which changes over a period of 100,000 years; and the Precession of the Equinoxes, also known as the earth’s ‘wobble’, which gradually rotates the direction of the earth’s axis over a period of 26,000 years.
According to the Milankovich theory of Ice Age causation, these three astronomical cycles, each of which effects the amount of solar radiation which reaches the earth, act together to produce the cycle of cold Ice Age maximums and warm interglacials.

There is one big conspiracy theory: the 9/11 Terror conspiracy theory.
As you know I do not support this theory, though there is a possibility that U.S. intelligence agencies have not yet honestly disclosed every knowledge concerned they had before September 11, 2001.
But, if this CO2 fuss should be a conspiracy, it is a little more complicated.
It looks like including a conspiracy part and a non-conspiracy part. Yet, it is an obligation of each member of mankind to study it by himself or herself.
So, this is my part of meeting this obligation.

A thousnd-year old big maidenhair tree ("Ichou" in Japanese) fell down on the ground today.
It was a major symbol of Kamakura, the capital of the first samurai regime established 818 years ago in Japan, facing the Sagami Bay under Mt. Fuji.

2Ti 3:8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
2Ti 3:9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as their's also was.
2Ti 3:10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience,
2Ti 3:11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me.
