To those curious, do not check out the original post

Comments are entirely "cloud seeding", "blocking solar radiation with dangerous chemicals", and sensible people arguing for encouraging biodiversity being shut out, a few by Car Man himself

I was put off until this part. Curiosity is now at high levels. Expecting massive hoop jumping and that's always funny to watch.

Telling adults what to do will drive them to do the exact opposite. You tell me what to read, I'll buy Clarkson an aircraft carrier! Don't test me!

Not intentional, wish it were! I'm glad I could give someone a moment of joy. XD
