6                      the increase in average age of marriage since 1968
23                    % of Millenials , married and living independently

Anecdotal insertion here : When I was 25 , I announced that I was getting an apartment. My Dad came to me and said " you don't need to move out to prove your a man ". Baloney , I was thinking ' I'd better leave before one us kills the other " Not very charitable but true.

The Climate accountability  Institute of Colorado ( no , I didn't invent the name ) says that 90 companies produce 2 / 3 of man made global warming emissions.
Leading the pack is Chevron Texaco , believed to responsible for 3.5 % of emissions. 31 companies are state owned in Saudia Arabia , Russia and Norway.

Weather : Sunny , 28 F and prime hibernating weather , for me.
