WW3 appears imminent; before/after 2030 is the big question!
(That greatly impacts the tech and resources involved.)

Good LC "calcportunity" - I may have a go later this year.
Needs the right data inputs, weighed objectively to estimate.

Best wishes,

Recent history suggestions that the first half of a century is a messy period: 
we had 2 world wars, and a great depression at the beginning of the last one. 
People are predicting that great conflict and economic uncertainty lie ahead. 
It cannot hurt to be prepared for something unusual in the first half of this 
century.

Not OT if they used LC for the prediction! :)

You're supposed to put a piece of cardboard over the right side of the screen when viewing 
YouTube. Solves everything.


It was funny, when I watched the video the first time my reaction was "huh??" And then I 
remembered the title and everything clicked into place and I thought it was hysterically funny. 
As you age you lose a synapse or two...


Oh, and thanks just heaps for the other references, now I'll have to go look. :P

So while yours may have been short, the round trip down the rabbit hole 
probably was at least an hour — but I am more now edumacated, and wiser 😄

Now, what was that original link about again? 😂
