    Congratulations and welcome to one of my favorite northwests. See the rainforests and the glaciers because their time is short.

      Distant future generations … at some point in the mid 2030s:

      “Papa, is it true you are so old that you’ve seen snow? And glaciers? And non-rat mammals?”
      “Yes, Papa, tell us again about the rivers of pure water and huuuge stock yields!! Please!”

      [The 140 year old millennial … what? Only 40? That can’t be right, look at yourself in a mirror, grandpa!] “Alright kids, put down my old petrol industry stock portfolio trade-book, settle down and finish your aged soylent first, the green one is the best one.”
