"There’s thermal pollution from cities. And changes in the North Atlantic currents. Glacier retreats in Antarctica, and higher albedos in Africa, and CFCs in the ozone, and that permanent hitch in the ENSO cycle, and the solar variation ... Christ, I can’t even count them all. Jerry, the weather’s never gonna calm down and be normal. Not in our lifetime. Probably not in three hundred years. We’ll have all the spikes we ever want! You and me, we’re disaster experts with an endless supply of disaster! And if you nail the F-6 while the feds are sitting on their hands saying an F-6 isn’t even possible, then you’ll be famous forever."
