Jeremiah wanted to talk about astronomy before he went to sleep tonight. As Pär described the Earth's rotation, they got into some discussion of the North Pole, and Pär mentioned that the polar ice cap was melting. There was a startled pause. Then:
Jeremiah: The polar cap is melting?
Pär: Yep.
Jeremiah: Did we make that happen?
Pär: Yep.
Jeremiah: You mean... we're idiots? Humans are idiots?
Pär: ... Yes.
Jeremiah: The polar cap is melting?
