   If your crops stop yielding as well as they used to because they are   
   being exposed to higher temperatures than they were bred to deal with,   
   there won't be a lot of reproduction. People with a better grasp of   
   what's actually going on will have more kids, but it may not happen fast   
   enough to get the lying fossil carbon companies lynched,

   In the average temperature, rather than the day-to-day fluctuations, but   
   you grasp of statistics has never been impressive. Speech therapy is a   
   skilled occupation, but speech therapists aren't trained in statistics.   
      
   Neither are electronic engineers, but some of them do enough   
   experimental work to learn a bit about the subject - and to acquire the   
   habit of asking people who know more, like my cousin the statistician.
