It Might Come Back!


An acquaintance of W. C. Fields saw some of his liquor stash and remarked that Prohibition was over.  Fields replied something like, "Yes, but it might come back!  I am not a climate change naysayer; climate has been changing since Earth was a cooling ball of gas.  These Canadian granite boulders came south to Illinois during the Illinoisan glacier, some 300,000 to 125,000 years ago.  That ice made the edges nice and round so you can tell them easily from exposed bedrock that they might be sitting on.  Someday that ice will come back, no matter whether you drive  a Chevy  or a Prius.  Maybe it will make little pebbles out of whatever is left of Chicago.  That will solve the crime problem up there!  Back To The Old Grind!
