Back on topic, it's interesting to me how many countries are losing population, birth rate is not keeping up in several more.  I see projections the population of the planet would get to about 10 billion and not increase further.

I'll be damned....who would've guessed that SOUTH Carolina would be similar to NORTH Carolina? 
The Eastern seaboard up to about Maryland is pretty similar.  You have mountains, the piedmont, and the coastal plain in all of them.  South Carolina doesn't have a large city and is a smaller state of course.  But anyone driving through these states isn't going to notice a difference.

I spent most of my time in the lowcountry

Yeah, part of the contributing factors to the current global political tinderbox, are that both Russia and China have some serious population/birthrate/demographic issues that are driving internal conflict, which is resulting in the kind of instability that leads to dangerous external outcomes.

Each state has those three parts which are very different from each other, in appearance and to an extent in culture and even accent.

The regions are a lot more different than the states.

Doesn't the artificial turf burn your feet when it's 110?


Of course, but that is what you wear slide or something on your feet.  I don't have much turf. and generally don't walk on it. This was my landscapers rendering of my backyard before it was put in.




BTW while I prefer 112 over 50, it doesn't mean I want it to be 112.  I prefer about 95 degrees with low humidity.

Mines like 85% rock, but there's a small patch of grass off of each porch that you can step out onto without having to slip into sandals.

I also do not get the scoffing of the dry heat. Anything over 80 out East, I'm sweating like a pig. 110 out west, yeah it's hot, but I don't secrete a drop.

My pancreas secretes alkaline digestive juices into the intestines just to neutralize the stomach acid that could be remaining on the food.
