Senator Nick Begich e-mail reply first Amendment lost.


All the Senators and President are sworn to uphold the Constitution but will violate their Oath of Office in favor of corporate money--or at least that is their excuse for taking away your Right to free Speech and your 4th and 5th Amendment rights.

DearMr. Kroll:

Thank you for contacting me about the ProtectingReal Online Threats to Economic Creativity and Theft of Intellectual Property Act(PROTECT IP). I supporta free and open Internet.

With online commerce continuingto grow and evolve as a significant portion of our country's economy—as well as day-to-day life for many Alaskans—it isimportant we maintain the free flow of information while at the same time protecting users against the threatof cyber theft or attack.  The debate about how to protect intellectual property rights andfight online piracy and counterfeit operations has been goingon for over a decade.

Both the PROTECT IP Actand the version in the House of Representatives, the StopOnline Piracy Act (SOPA), have received a large amount of attention from consumers and companies who are concerned about the impacton innovation and the flow of information online.  I believe intellectual property rights should be respectedand we should address how they areenforced.  However, I do not feel the protectionsshould restrict the flow of information through search engines or technical alterations. I will continue to review the legislation and details as we move closer to a vote.

I am continuing to monitor the development of online commerce which I believe will help grow businesses in Alaska.  Online privacy and the protection of freespeech are importantto Alaskans, and I appreciatehearing your comments on pending legislation.

Please feel free to stay in touch as we continue to debate these issues.

Sincerely,
Mark Begich
U.S. Senator

What is a Publican? A Re-publican?



What is a Re-publican?
In antiquity, publicans (Latin publicanus (singular); publicani (plural)) were public contractors, in which role they often supplied the Roman legions and military, managed the collection of port duties, and oversaw public building projects. In addition, they served as tax collectors for the Republic (and later the Roman Empire), bidding on contracts (from the Senate in Rome) for the collection of various types of taxes. Importantly, this role as tax collectors was not emphasized until late into the history of the Republic (c. 1st century BC). The publicans were usually of the class of equites.
At the height of the Republic's era of provincial expansion (roughly the 1st and 2nd centuries BC until the end of the Republic) the Roman tax farming system was very profitable for the publicani. The right to collect taxes for a particular region would be auctioned every few years for a value that (in theory) approximated the tax available for collection in that region. The payment to Rome was treated as a loan and the publicani would receive interest on their payment at the end of the collection period. In addition, any excess (over their bid) tax collected would be pure profit for the publicani. The principal risk to the publicani was that the tax collected would be less than the sum bid.

By New Testament times, publicans were seen chiefly as tax collectors by provincial peoples. It is in this sense that the term is used in Jesus' parable of the Pharisee and the Publican. However, their role as public contractors, especially as regards building projects, was still significant.

With the rise of a much larger Imperial bureaucracy, this task of the publicans, as well as their overall importance, declined precipitously. Evidence for the existence of publicans extends as far back as the 3rd century BC, although it is generally assumed that they existed at still earlier times in Roman history. Knowledge of a tentative terminus post quem is taken from the histories of the 1st century AD Imperial historian Livy.

By the time of the Renaissance, the word "publican" meant a tavernkeeper (the licensed landlord of a public house), and by extension a slang term for a pimp.

In England in the late 12th century there existed a religious sect called the publicani. Among their beliefs was the view that procreation was a sin. This sect was thought heretical and was commonly persecuted in the 1180-1190s by Archbishop William of 
Rheims (reigned 1176–1202).[1] This is mentioned in Banks and Binns' introduction to the Otia Imperialia, a 13th century work by Gervase of Tilbury.

DEMOCRATS
Democrats are proponents of democracy. They are considered to be socially liberal and for progressive change. In a liberal society lazy people find it easier to live on welfare than work for a living and why should they when the government pays them more money not to work than they would receive if they did work? In a democracy the loudest and richest always influence the rest of the herd. That is why a democracy can never work.

We have a representative form of government where states divide up areas according to numbers of people and service area need. Senators and Representatives are chosen to represent areas in proportion to their populations.

BLOGS BANNED, COSIAL NETWORKING BANNED, INTERNET CENSOR BILL

Internet Takeover Bill
United States Justice Foundation
932 "D" Street, Suite 2
Ramona, California 92065
760-788-6624   USJF.NET

01/10/2012

Dear Kenneth,

The final U. S. Senate vote on the internet takeover bill is set for January 24th.  As of right now, that bill, which gives U. S. Attorney General Eric Holder the power of an "Internet Czar,” WILL PASS.
Please send faxes to every Member of the U.S. Senate, and demand that they filibuster S. 968, the Senate version of the internet takeover bill.
Unfortunately, the American people are not paying attention to this catastrophe that is unfolding in the U. S. Senate.  We only have a few days to stop this unconstitutional power grab.  We must bombard the Senate with faxes, RIGHT NOW!
This bill will give corrupt U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder the power to blacklist or shut down any website or forum that is merely accused of being linked to "online piracy”.
He will even have the authority to "sanitize” the results of internet searches on Google or Yahoo, so that only government-approved websites and information can be found online.
If this bill passes, Barack Hussein Obama will have to the ability to ban the campaign websites of his opponents, shut down the online activities of anti-Obama groups like USJF, and harass tea party forums and any other website that don't support him.
Please fax the U. S. Senate now.  This bill WILL PASS unless the American people overwhelm the Senate with faxes!

And, while you are at it, please forward this email to everyone in your lists.
The FINAL U. S. Senate vote is scheduled for January 24th.  We don't have much time!
If this bill passes, the Obama Administration won't need a court order.  There will be no hearings or trials.
Barack Hussein Obama, Jr., will seize incredible control over the internet, and we will be nearly powerless to stop him.
Although supporters of the bill say that it is designed to prevent online piracy, this is an internet takeover bill, pure and simple.
Just one "complaint” from a liberal activist, or a government agent, that you are indirectly violating an obscure copyright rule, and your website could be fined huge sums, and it could be blacklisted from the internet.
Just imagine if Google was prohibited from displaying websites that were critical of Barack Obama, that discussed the controversy over where he was born, or that mentioned the damage that his policies are doing to the economy.
Well, that is exactly what will ultimately happen if S.968 passes, and it is signed into law.
Many of this bill's provisions are modeled on Communist China's censorship law, called the "Great Firewall of China.”
Even the socialists in the European Parliament oppose this new American law.
That is how extreme S.968 is!
S.968 already has 40 co-sponsors in the U.S. Senate.   Eleven more votes and it passes!
Please fax every U. S. Senator NOW.
Extreme liberals like Chuck Schumer and Al Franken have teamed up with Republicans like John McCain and Lindsey Graham to ram this bill into law.
They are being helped by millions of dollars in campaign contributions from  left-wing mainstream media companies.
They want the government to shut down all the blogs and political forums, and all of the independent news sites, so that they, once again, will have a monopoly on the news that you and I are allowed to see.
This threat against free speech is so grave and so imminent that websites like Google and Yahoo are seriously considering staging a last-ditch online protest to try to stop Mr. Obama and his Congressional allies!
Please, fax every Member of the U. S. Senate NOW, and please forward this email to all of your friends, urging them to do the same.

This bill WILL PASS unless you take action TODAY.
And, while you are at it, please add to the effectiveness of your faxes by personally calling your U.S. Senators' offices at 202-224-3121.  Tell him, or her, to STOP S. 968, the internet takeover bill.
The final vote is January 24th.  We only have days remaining to save free speech on the internet!

Oil spill cleanup deaths...


EXXON Valdez cleenup deaths.

Warning To Gulf Volunteers: Almost Every Cleanup Worker From The 1989 Exxon Valdez Disaster Is Now Dead

Michael Snyder | Jun. 30, 2010, 12:20 PM | 52,619
Are you sure that you want to help clean up the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico?  In a previous article we documented a number of the health dangers from this oil spill that many scientists are warning us of, and now it has been reported on CNN that the vast majority of those who worked to clean up the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill in Alaska are now dead.  Yes, you read that correctly.  Almost all of them are dead.
In fact, the expert that CNN had on said that the life expectancy for those who worked to clean up the Exxon Valdez oil spill is only about 51 years.  Considering the fact that the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico is now many times worse than the Exxon Valdez disaster, are you sure you want to volunteer to be on a cleanup crew down there?  After all, the American Dream is not to make big bucks for a few months helping BP clean up their mess and then drop dead 20 or 30 years early.
By KEITH ROGERS
LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL
Posted: May 10, 2010 | 12:00 a.m.
Updated: May 10, 2010 | 7:27 a.m.
They called it the "Valdez crud," but it was more than a cough and diarrhea.
"We thought it was a flu that was going around and every­body kept getting it," said Merle Savage, who was general foreman of the cleanup crews of the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill in Alaska's Prince William Sound.
Instead, the stuff that was making cleanup workers sick was a toxic cocktail of oil droplets in mist they inhaled from spraying the shoreline with hot water and chemicals that were used to disperse the spill's massive black wave.
Now Savage wants today's workers to be aware of similar risks they might face in cleaning up the even bigger BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
Savage, who wrote a book, "Silence in the Sound," about the Exxon Valdez cleanup, recounts those risks as she sits in the upstairs "Alaska Room" of the North Las Vegas home where she now lives with her son and daughter-in-law.
Many of the thousands of Exxon Valdez cleanup workers have died or have become seriously ill from inhaling the toxic mist and handling dispersants that contained benzene and other chemicals.
Of dozens of lawsuits that were filed by sick workers, seven were settled out of court and the records have been sealed.
One cleanup chemical, 2-Butoxyethanol, can be absorbed through the skin and cause blood and kidney damage resulting in headaches, respiratory problems and even death, according to the material safety data sheet for the dispersant, INIPOL, which was used in the cleanup of the Exxon Valdez spill.
After she wrote her book in 2003, Savage teamed up with marine toxicologist Riki Ott to warn about the dangers involved with cleaning up oil spills. In a video with Ott, Savage described the shoreline cleanup as being "like a war zone."
"What we know now is the oil is 1,000 times more toxic than we thought," Savage said. "The BP spill is going to be worse. I'm warning workers to understand how toxic the crude oil can be."
Savage's personal experience is that the ill effects have lingered for years.
"When I came to Las Vegas in 1995, I was sick. I had bronchial problems," she said. "I lived with extreme diarrhea day in and day out for years."
During that time she has had severe pain in her joints and underwent a biopsy for a spot on her liver.
"They said I was an alcoholic, but I don't drink and I don't smoke," she said.
While pain pills and other medications didn't work for her problems, Savage researched some natural remedies.
"I found out about toxic chemicals and detoxed myself with a lemon juice concoction," she said. "And I sleep on a blanket with magnets in it. It gets your system back in shape.
After the Exxon Valdez ran aground on March 24, 1989, Savage signed on to be a cleanup worker.
"I worked two weeks on the spill, holding a hose with hot water gushing out and steam coming up," she said. "At first we didn't have masks. But later on we had paper masks that wouldn't last a day.
"There was crude oil and dead seaweed all around. The smell from that was horrible."
The rain gear workers wore would be cleaned using a solution that contained benzene and other chemicals, Savage said.
She eventually was promoted to the post of general foreman.
Even though workers would become sick, most didn't want to be sent from the boats and barges back to Valdez because they didn't want to lose their jobs.
"Everybody on my barge was complaining and throwing up," she said. "Even I was sick."
Before she left her boat at the end of the cleanup, she kept computer printouts of the workers' roster.
Little did she know then that the names would become a valuable resource in her effort to make them and their families aware of the toxic exposures they endured.
"I've had children who had parents who were cleanup workers and brothers, too. I know of 30 people who have contacted me since," Savage said.
"Thousands of people are suffering from the Valdez cleanup with no compensation. And there were Exxon officials on each barge. I knocked heads with a couple of them."

Just a Few Things BP Does NOT Want You to Know…
But there are even more downright criminal activities taking place right now. According to a government panel, new calculations suggest that "an amount equivalent to the Exxon Valdez disaster could be flowing into the Gulf of Mexico every 8 to 10 days," the New York Times reported on June 10.
In addition, the CNN video above discusses the health problems suffered by the clean-up workers, and the fact that BP is strongly discouraging any type of protective gear, such as respirators and even rubber gloves! In the video, Kerry Kennedy mentions that the average age at the time of death of workers who cleaned up after the 1989 Exxon Valdez spill was 51!
Today, all those clean-up workers are DEAD!
Seems BP is far more worried about their PR, buying up search terms on Google and other search engines, than protecting the health and welfare of their clean-up crews...

IS YOUR JOB SAFE? THINK AGAIN!


Its a sad state of affairs when you can't trust your own government. NAFTA (North American Free Trade) sent most business into foreign countries. To add insult to injury our government gave money to big corporations to move into foreign countries.
  
I have been sued the last ten years by people who have no reason to sue me other than they are mean and have no soul. They want to take everything we worked for all our lives and if that isn't enough they want to destroy our way to earn a living. I have had to spend more than $100,000 for lawyers.

I am 67 and thank God every day that he let me live this long. I have no job and no money. I get food from the food bank and my cloths from the Salvation Army. I am loosing my eyesight with age related AMD. For the last twenty years I have to take two kinds of blood pressure medication. My blood pressure still is in the heart attack zone. I had an appointment for a hip transplant last December 2010 with Dr. Cavanaugh in Anchorage but didn’t have the money to travel to Anchorage. I have an ongoing ear infection since 1990 that drives me crazy. If I don’t swab my ears out with hydrocortisone cream every day they start to hurt and itch and my head swells up. Then the pain really starts in. I also have a lot of back pain from lifting 650-pound crab pots and a lifetime of hard labor.

I fell off the dock onto the frozen beach severely injuring my back in 2001. It took me six months to walk again. I had to get a hernia operation in November 2009. Dr. King did the surgery implanting a four-inch piece of plastic over my right hip joint. They didn’t tell me I should do stretching exercises afterwards so now it is almost impossible for me to put the sock on my right foot.

Last September 2010 I developed a blood clot under my right knee and my leg swelled to twice its normal size. I went to the Soldotna Emergency and they injected blood thinners into my stomach. I had to administer two shots a day myself into my stomach for the next eight days. Now I take Warfarin every day in the hopes the swelling in my leg will go down. The stress of the lawsuits and not being able to earn a living caused eczema over several parts of my body. As I write this my foot is still swollen.

I have had my name in at the state job center for six years to work as equipment operator, mechanic or electrician without any result. Because of my age employers are not willing to hire me. If I had a job I would be able to pay my bills and you would not be reading this right now. The stress of lawsuits has shortened my lifespan by at least ten years. I have stomach pain which I think is the start of an ulcer.
 
In the 1970’s I used to earn well over $100,000 a year commercial fishing king crab and salmon in lower Cook Inlet. Some years I earned a lot more. What with the government stealing the value of our money through inflation that amount of money is equivalent to $200,000 today.

Empty oil tankers returning to Alaska must take on ballast water in order to run in the open ocean otherwise they could roll over. For twenty years the State of Alaska allowed over a hundred oil tankers a year to each dump about 20-million gallons of algae and sewage contaminated ballast water taken from the Los Angeles, Honolulu and Anacortes Washington harbors into lower Cook Inlet. The tankers start discharging ballast water when they reach the Barren Islands at the entrance of Cook Inlet. By the time they get to the oil storage facilities at Kenai and Drift River Terminal the ballast water has been discharged and they are ready to take on oil. The ballast water from 100 oil tankers a year totals about 2,000,000,000 –that’s two billion gallons a year.

It took twenty years to destroy the crab and shrimp fisheries. Twenty years of dumping this toxic waste, algae and crude oil plus the city of Anchorage dumping millions of gallons of sewage into upper Cook Inlet and twenty years of offshore oil wells dumping radioactive drill tailing and drilling mud, the shrimp, crab and clams were exterminated. It’s a sad state of affairs when you can’t trust your own government!

Shrimp, crab and clams are bivalves. After their eggs hatch the spat must swim to the surface in the spring to feed on the first plankton bloom. When the ecosystem had been altered by contaminates such as bacteria and algae that suck up all the oxygen the plankton dies. The entire ecosystem is poisoned by chemicals, plastics and heavy metals in solution. Add to this a layer of oil on the surface that suffocates zooplankton and you have a recipe for disaster. I believe our food supply was purposely poisoned for the purpose of getting rid of us commercial fishermen.  

Practically all the shrimp and crab were exterminated. To add insult to injury the state blamed the depletion of the resource on the fishermen. Many fishermen like myself, lost their boats, wives, houses and everything. My loss totals several million.  

The state wanted to get rid of commercial fisherman so they could sell billions of dollars in oil leases in lower Cook Inlet south of Kaligan Island and in Kachemak Bay. They had visions of making it look like the Gulf of Mexico will oil rigs in every direction from horizon to horizon. The oil companies weren’t interested in dealing with Alaska’s bureaucracy so very few oil leases were sold.


I addition the the tanker spills the municipality of Anchorage was steadily dumping more and more chloronated sewage into the upper inlet. While all this was going on twenty-three oil wells were dumping drilling mud, garbage, pallet boards, and plastic bags--not to mention blowouts that lasted months dumping untold millions of gallons.

Due to state greed the people living in the cities of Homer and Seldovia were cheated out of their livelihood and hundreds of millions of dollars. I was forced to fish further west out of Kodiak and King Cove in order to earn enough to support my family. Being away from home for months at a time and the stress of trying to make a living with an old 70-foot boat Mary M built in 1929 resulted in my divorce. I lost everything, my boat, three-hundred crab pots worth $500 apiece and my house in Halibut Cove. In addition we lost our family homestead in Tuxedni Bay appraised at one million dollars at the time. Judge Hansen who presided over my divorce stipulated that I put it in an irrevocable trust for my children. I paid Attorney Mike Hough $1,300 to draw up the trust and my ex-wife and I deeded it over to the trust.

A few years later I was besieged by 50 herring fishermen in Tuxedni Bay that belonged to the Church of Armstrong. They destroyed my nets, cut my nets, ran over my buoys, and rammed my skiff putting a hole in it. If the State of Alaska would have enforced its fish and Game regulations none of this would have happened. If the State Troopers would have defended our property rights at that time none of this would have happened. We called them repeatedly to do something but they didn’t respond.

I go sued by one of them. The same judge Hansen that presided over my divorce a few years earlier put judgments against my Children’s trust, me and my corporation. I had to file bankruptcy and we lost the homestead. A year after putting judgments on us Judge Hansen died of brain cancer. I appealed the case and Judge Cranston took over. I didn’t have any money and couldn’t travel to a court appointment. Judge Cranston who was a Boy Scout Leader got accused of molesting the boy Scouts and died of a heart attack.      

If the State had not destroyed the fisheries you would not be reading this right now. Thru incompetent resource management and insidious greed of this state has bankrupted me once before costing me several million dollars. What options do I have right now? You tell me! I am 67 and nobody will hire me and I have no money. Should I continue to push buttons on the antiquated computers down at the State Job Center? If I were to somehow land a minimum wage job how long would it take me to pay off my credit card debts? Will I live long enough to pay off my debts? Will you give me a job?

My brother Herb killed himself with a 357-magnum pistol after the state refused to grant him a limited entry salmon permit for his new boat, Penga. He fished salmon all his life. After the limited entry law was passed and the state refused to grant him a salmon permit he had no way to earn a living. He shot himself in the head because he didn’t want to be a burden on others. This state killed him. I now find myself in the same situation and think about killing myself--only if I were to do so, then, you, who are earning $200 an hour wouldn’t have a job. The only thing that stops me from killing myself is I want to know when and how this is going to end.

Bogus oil shortage to keep the price high.

Here's an interesting read

Also if I may add, about 6 months ago I was watching a news program on oil and one of the Forbes Bros. was the guest. This is out of context, but this is the actual question as asked. The host said to Forbes, "I am going to ask you a direct question and I would like a direct answer, how much oil does the U.S. have in the ground.." Forbes did not miss a beat, he said, "more than all the Middle East put together." Please read below.

The U. S. Geological Service issued a report in April ('08) that only scientists and oil men knew was coming, but man was it big. It was a revised report (hadn't been updated since '95) on how much oil was in this area of the western 2/3 of North Dakota ; western South Dakota ; and extreme eastern Montana ..... check THIS out:

The Bakken is the largest domestic oil discovery since Alaska 's Prudhoe Bay , and has the potential to eliminate all American dependence on foreign oil. The Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates it at 503 billion barrels. Even if just 10% of the oil is recoverable... at $107 a barrel, we're looking at a resource base worth more than $5.3 trillion.

'When I first briefed legislators on this, you could practically see their jaws hit the floor. They had no idea..' says Terry Johnson, the Montana Legislature's financial analyst..

'This sizable find is now the highest-producing onshore oil field found in the past 56 years' reports, The Pittsburgh Post Gazette. It's a formation known as the Williston Basin , but is more commonly referred to as the 'Bakken.' And it stretches from Northern Montana, through North Dakota and into Canada . For years, U. S. oil exploration has been considered a dead end. Even the 'Big Oil' companies gave up searching for major oil wells decades ago. However, a recent technological breakthrough has opened up the Bakken's massive reserves..... and we now have access of up to 500 billion barrels. And because this is light, sweet oil, those billions of barrels will cost Americans just $16 PER BARREL!

That's enough crude to fully fuel the American economy for 2041 years straight.

2. And if THAT didn't throw you on the floor, then this next one should - because it's from TWO YEARS AGO!

U. S. Oil Discovery- Largest Reserve in the World!
Stansberry Report Online - 4/20/2006

Hidden 1,000 feet beneath the surface of the Rocky Mountains lies the largest untapped oil reserve in the world. It is more than 2 TRILLION barrels. On August 8, 2005 President Bush mandated its extraction. In three and a half years of high oil prices none has been extracted. With this motherload of oil why are we still fighting over off-shore drilling?

They reported this stunning news: We have more oil inside our borders, than all the other proven reserves on earth. Here are the official estimates:

- 8-times as much oil as Saudi Arabia
- 18-times as much oil as Iraq
- 21-times as much oil as Kuwait
- 22-times as much oil as Iran
- 500-times as much oil as Yemen
- and it's all right here in the Western United States ..

HOW can this BE? HOW can we NOT BE extracting this? Because the environmentalists and others have blocked all efforts to help America become independent of foreign oil! Again, we are letting a small group of people dictate our lives and our economy.....WHY?

James Bartis, lead researcher with the study says we've got more oil in this very compact area than the entire Middle East -more than 2 TRILLION barrels untapped. That's more than all the proven oil reserves of crude oil in the world today, reports The Denver Post.

Don't think 'OPEC' will drop its price - even with this find? Think again! It's all about the competitive marketplace, - it has to. Think OPEC just might be funding the environmentalists?

Got your attention/ire up yet? Hope so! Now, while you're thinking about it .... and hopefully P.O'd, do this:

3. Pass this along. If you don't take a little time to do this, then you should stifle yourself the next time you want to complain about gas prices--- because by doing NOTHING, you've forfeited your right to complain

--------
Now I just wonder what would happen in this country if every one of you sent this to every one in your address book.
By the way...this is all true. Check it out at the link below!!!
GOOGLE it or follow this link. It will blow your mind.
http://www.usgs.gov/newsroom/article.asp?ID=1911

If this is true then why are we sending our young people overseas to die defending the Saudi oil fields?

Lastly, anyone who doubts that the issue is serious and just deletes this info without sending it on is contributing to the passiveness that allows the problems to expand. So, extend yourself a bit and send this on and on and on! Let us hope that thousands, world-wide, read this and think about it, and send it on - before it's too late.

Answers to life's Greatest Questions


Where are we going? Where did we come from? How are stars like our sun made? Where was the sun born? Do we have sister stars like our sun? How did life get started on earth?


Who brought the moon in? Was earth terraformed? What made all the coal, oil and limestone? Do photons have mass? What is dark matter? How can we travel to other star systems? When did earth get a 20.8 % oxygen atmosphere?


Is earth loosing oxygen? Should humans be burning things? Should humans be using atomic power? Are humans on the right evolutionary path?



Cosmological Ice Ages
by Henry Kroll 384 pages; quality trade paperback (softcover); catalogue #08-0164; ISBN 1-4251-7062-5; US$31.35, C$31.35, EUR21.42, £16.19
About the Book
I plotted our sun’s course through space to discover that our sun was born in the constellation Orion. After the planets were formed Earth was covered with a five-mile-thick coating of ice one billion years. We eventually drifted near the Sirius multiple star system and little Sirius B (1.5 solar masses) grabbed hold of our sun putting it in orbit around Sirius A.
Our sun does not have enough power to keep us out of the ice ages otherwise we wouldn’t have them! It was the additional light and heat from Sirius star system that melted the ice caps and got life started in the oceans.
Earth is losing its atmosphere. During the rein of the dinosaurs the atmospheric pressure was around 30 pounds per square inch. Now it is down to 14.5 pounds per square inch. Before our sun was captured by the Sirius system earth had an atmosphere of 750 pounds per square inch. Over time and it was laid down as coal, oil and limestone using photosynthesis and light from these giant stars. We have a limited time to get our act together and get off the planet to seed life in other biospheres.
