Had to crack a smile after reading this & similar articles.

Some people cling to the Big Bang as if it was a holy scroll granted by Heaven. To me, it's too patched up to describe creation correctly. If our universe has suddenly become twice as old as previously believed, why continue with the closed mind concept that "only" dark matter & dark energy can explain expansion. The Webb telescope has moved the goalposts yet again, and it sounds like the money grant people are scrambling to patch up their arguments. My personal theory is we have no idea what lies beyond the light horizon, so Physics is still an open ended game.
Keeping an open mind, open ears, and open eyes are truly what separates the people enjoying life, and those being led by their noses.

Been talking about this for many years. You can't print wealth, or make it up digitally. That takes agriculture, manufacturing, and mining. All of these things have been uprooted, regulated out, and diminished in the US of A. The last thing remaining was the good faith & trust in the government, but the world has voted on that for real, not by mail or dominion. The US produces nothing the world needs, and the world has responded by dumping the dollar. Hang on to your britches, because it's going to get real rough, real fast.
Enjoy your banana bread & circus show in New York, because they won't tell you what's really going on, you might not like it. $30 trillion in debt on paper, over $100 trillion in unfunded liabilities, and a pile of dumb-asses that still believe they can coin money & sell treasury bonds to cover their game of monopoly. 

Be careful exposing your nuts Mark (assuming you have some stored of course)

My pet goldfish, won him 20 years ago at a fair, whack a mole champion is Rob, not house trained when I first got him (bit everything). He's fine now, although a lot bigger, I've had to dredge a new lake in the garden (well the neighbours call it a moat?), a great deterrent for junk mail is 'Goldie,' and everything else. Loves children, but will also eat any pet stupid enough to swim with him, he's a character. Apparently he's the very rare silver goldfish, found around seal colonies, according to the friendly one armed man at the fair. I bought him a mate 10 years ago, looking forward to those little goldies, but she disappeared one night, must have left him for a fish with more gold - bitch!
