If you have seen a 40mph speed limit at 3am when the road was virtually empty and imagined what's gonna happen there 4h later, you would be less sarcastic. If you have seen a 40mph speed limit and a warning about an accident, and after passing the place seen no sign of any accident whatsoever, you'd be less sarcastic. If you have seen the official statistics claiming 1.5% increase of throughput within the peak period and no mention whatsoever about the off peak period, you'd be less sarcastic. If you actually had any experience whatsoever with M25, and the absolute failure which is the system causing the jams there, you'd be less sarcastic.

if the climate changes in ways that damage agricultural yields.

There's no evidence whatsoever that the climate is changing in a way that would damage our yields on a global scale. There's a lot of quite convincing evidence on the contrary, feel free to google for biomass increase over the last couple decades. Apart from evidence, I urge everyone to use basic logic, for a start. CO2 + heat = greenhouse. It's a fricking greenhouse effect, is it not? The crops grow best fricking where? What do you build to increase your yield from a square mile? :P

I didn't. My first computer was a 8-bit machine.

My first computer didn't even have 8-bits. It had 2, but you couldn't use both at the same time. You had to go up 7 floors to get the other bit and then swap them out.

You were lucky to get that, mine had only one bit and it could only hold zero in it!
