Helene A Weather Weapon

New Blog Post.

The good news is that my new computer is now installed and doing a fine job.

Therefore, my never-ending gratitude for those who have donated to the cause.

It could not have happened without you.

....

The first thing I did was create a video report about Hurricane Helene and what it has done - especially in North Carolina.

It is now uploaded to the link below.

But first....

If you have not yet subscribed to the blog, please do so this time. I have sent many reminders over several months now, but for some reason, the difference in numbers subscribed to this newsletter, and those subscribed to the blog, is quite mystifying.

It makes me wonder if there are many subscribers to this newsletter who do not even open it...the stats currently suggest it's only about 35% - which is ridiculous.

All you have to do is open a blog link, like the one below, then subscribe either for free, or at the monthly donation tier, which is only $10 - for which you are getting (free or at the $10 level) hundreds of hours of time spent on research and professional video production.

It makes me think that those who have taken the opportunity to subscribe to the blog are indeed interested in the subject matter on which I report - whereas those who have not subscribed to the blog may be no loss at all if I shut down this newsletter (to save money every month) and use that to help cover overheads.

Anyway, that said (and I hope you'll take the hint if you haven't yet subscribed to the blog) the new blog post is at this link.
