Saw "Hereafter", oof.

I got exactly ZERO from this movie.  There is nothing.  Therefore nothing to refute.

She mumbles something, at one thin part of the film, about "scientific evidence" of whatever.

I was coerced to go and I could feel my life energy being sucked out of me throughout this inanity.

Produced and Directed by Clint Eastwood

Executive Producer Steven Spielberg

1. Matt Damon is a "real" psychic, somehow bio-engineered as a youth to communicate with the dead.

2. Someone undergoes a near death experience, and now is an expert.

3. A kid, whose twin died, is motivated to speak with his brother.

"See their lives intertwine"  or whatever, I mean c'mon, that's all you can give us? 

Being a monist, I have the afterlife answer:  When you breath out your last breath you die.  

See ya', Sayanara, b'bye, ciao, hasta, etc.  "That's all folks!"

Actually, no reason for it to be otherwise (literally!).

Plants Play Larger Role Than Thought in Cleaning Up Air Pollution, Research Shows

Yes, well, that didn't seem revolutionary.

However, the short article is a terse and digestible explanation of a lot of plant biology.

The complexities of the world are continuously affected by the law of unintended consequences.

Here's my takeaway:

1. We pollute and thereby put trees under stress.

2. They are now taking up the pollutants since they do that as a reaction to stress.

3. The reason geo-engineering cannot work is because we don't know squadoosh about how things are supposed to work, therefore, how can we know what to do to keep the environment safe for the biosphere?
