    EU climate law could cause 'catastrophic' deforestation | Environment | The Guardian
    One positive I've never seen mentioned on climate change is that the warmer it gets the less we will need to heat our houses. When the air temperature reaches 1600'C we'll even be able to make steel without burning coal and all the plastic will melt. Climate catastrophes sorted.

    Back on topic, the pattern is nowt to do with leaves, the sun was clear of the trees. Think maybe on pane is slightly concave and the light is bouncing between the sheets somehow.

    Anyone else would probably count sheep to fall asleep, but I pontificate about the duality of light in the double-slit experiment.

    Wow. 2 pages of comments re cr*p. Probably first xoggoth post ever to get >2 comments. Perhaps I will dig up the path. Maybe an angel is guiding me to sacred scriptures, as with Joseph Smith. I could make a fortune inventing a new religion.

    ...light absorption is expressed as the probability per unit time of a particle at point p travelling in the direction being absorbed
    Brain exploded there, but yeh could be summit to do with leaves before it hits the window! Hadn't thought of that, need to take a photo of treetops.

    The frame is too tight for the glass, quite likely it expanded after fitting. This is stressing and deforming the glass, it could also shatter under any additional stress.

    I wouldn't sit too close to it.

    I can't be 100% sure but I think it's pretty obviously a sign that Excalibur is buried there. Dig it up and claim your rightful kingdom.

    If you need a round table knocked up quickly I know a good furniture maker.

    Anything (or anyone) buried under there...?

    Are you sure it's a cross not an "X"?
