Interesting! I don't know enough about the uranium layer dating technique - but would it also work in Lascaux, for true comparison? Also, there are paintings in the Karawari caves of not-that-far-to-the-east, PNG. It would be good to apply the Sulawesi methods to the Karawari paintings, if possible.

Yet after the beguilement of Carney's eloquence & candor, here's the sober 2nd thought, courtesy of Antifascist Dad Matthew Remski & his critical, against-the-grain analysis (we in Canada used to get this from our CBC but now don't, after all the Harper attacks). www.instagram.com/reel/DTxtRaK...

I'm seeing him tonight, so will be listening. He does speak about classic socialist issues and unionized workers rights.

I wouldn't mind it if the NDP leadership candidates would adopt a bit of AOC's or Mamdani's radical candour, grassroots connections, & willingness to speak to being democratic socialists. Except for Ashton, no one will say 'class war'; what I hear most from my fed & prov NDP is 'please send $'

It's bizarre hearing the exact same arguments, almost word for word, in another country that I heard in ours just years ago. I'm going to keep repeating this, get American tech out of your country. Now. Do what you have to do. pluralistic.net/2026/01/01/3...

This speech will go down in history, along with Churchill's 'we shall fight on the beaches', Kennedy's 'Ask not', & Trudeau's 'no place for the state in bedrooms of the nation'.
