@_david_ho_ @helenczerski I’m afraid she is right 😉. Most viewers will not recognize this as planet Earth at first glance …

@JLKavanaugh I like to put the whole pieces in a bowl with some crushed garlic and olive oil, marinate overnight, and then serve sprinkled with some coarse sea salt. A fantastic side dish with grilled meat or chicken IMHO

1861: John Tyndall performed detailed experiments that identified all the major greenhouse gases
