Re-Cap of Hydrophilic Closed Loop:
An Extinction Level Event
For newcomers, recent July somber climate change insights can bring you up-to-speed on the urgency of action.
  • 04 #41 Heat Domes and FIFA
  • 19 #42 Canadian Fires impact US
  • 22 #43 Spain vs Argentina: FIFA or Fire
  • 22 #44 Ukraine Priorities
  • August US Hydrophilia: West Cost CO2 from fires picks up water and dumps down wind on East Coast using the jet stream and "latitude roll."
  • August 5: Rained so hard in my neighborhood had water in basement, 3rd since 1979: 2013, 2025, and 2026.

The 2026 FIFA Fest was one of the worst global climate cancers ever. It organized billions of people to be daily CO2 sinners.

Whoa! FIFA insiders trying to sell ticket rights to the #1 global people game to investors. Wow! These insiders will rip-off and price-gouge viewers like TicketMaster. It is akin to public officials selling hospitals built with taxpayer money to private equity and taking high paying jobs with the private equity firms. Or, insiders selling and privatizing the original BlueCross/BlueShields to investors. Executive salaries went from legally limited $100,000 to seven- and eight-figures. The promised savings of privitization did not show up in the premiums that doubled and tripled in a few years to pay the insiders' inflated salaries.

With the first Chain Letter, recipients were requested to be Catalysts for democracy who would forward the Chain Letter to ten people. It was hoped to create a critical mass of more thna 5,000,000 people with whom to share two Chain Letters that would reverse climate hell and political despotism. Recipients did not do this. As TV weatherheads are guilty of being Climate Criminals so are you, dear recipients, climate criminals. The victims of your crime? You and your loved ones. The Tools of Timism could have saved you if you took a few minutes to do your part.

The Cost of Igknowance: Time is money and money is time (Ben Franklin)

As noted in a previous  (Your Costly Math of Doing Nothing), it would have taken only a few minutes to create your Catalyst list of ten people. Because you did not and because the worsening existential meltdown that Timism could have slowed and reversed, you are now stuck with the inflationary cost of doing nothing. Calculated in that previous Chain Letter was how the average family facing 3.5% inflation would suffer an annual loss of $1,500.

Since time is money and money is time, that $1,500 is 60 workhours. Either your standard of living will go down or you will have to work 60 more hours each year to maintain your standard of living. Your inaction was not the Morality of More Time but the Morbidity of Less Time.

And, that drip, drip time loss is just the inflationary cost of your not taking a few minutes to be a "each one teach ten." The elephant in the room is waiting to surprise you with a natural udisaster of fire, floods, storms and dictatorship.that will put you out of home and job

Whose fault? If we do not do what is right then we will suffer what is wrong.

Whose fault? Bad values. The road to hell is paved with good intentions from bad values.

Morality without practicality is immoral.

Besides being a Catalyst for Democracy, you could have made a donation to 'Climate Change: Sacrifice Now or Suffer Forever." Only one person did over 18 months. My 20,000 recipients are a bunch of freeloaders. Every time you are shocked by worsening climate events, by more inflation, or by political disgust, guess who could have done something about it.

What needs to be done will not be done.

Mother Nature's escalating revenge for our CO2 sins has become her combo of 1930s Great Depression, 1939 blitzkrieg and 1941 Pearl Harbor on the igknowant climate lemmings. Per the trajectory of history and the math of Mother Nature, we may not be able to stop the hydrophilic close loop of

More CO2 > More Droughts > More Fires > More CO2 > Extinction Level Event.

The practical thing to do is prepare for lessening the chaos that will destroy everyday life. Timism's tools for better democracy and economics will soon be on-line to hopefully create the needed critical mass to implement the Primary Moral Imperative.

Once again, please forward this to ten people. Do it for you, not for me. Catalyze life instead of awating death.

Since I may decide to imitate you and become an existential ostriche, let me share some personal beliefs.

  1. I don't want nor need validation of my existence by others as Timism puts me at the pinnacle of historical human understanding of existence: The Morality of More Time, aka, the Periodic Table of Existence.

  2. You are wrong if you think "Nobody is that smart." Like the slave who knows he is a better problem-solver than his master so do I know that all the politicians, economists, weatherheads and celebrities together cannot do what Timism can do.

  3. I know from a history of valid predictions that I am right in my conclusions about your future. You will wait for someone to do something while you do nothing.

  4. A part of me is like the second genie who does not want to gift your wishes but to damn you for not doing what you should do. I neither wish nor would I cause you harm: You are doing it to yourself. Karma reigns supreme.

  5. I knowingly hate humanity. That is not as bad as the suicidal self-hatred of an igknowant humanity.

  6. I am in my eighth decade on Planet Earth. As always, my curiosity motivates me to learn and understand more.
