We have highlighted Edinburgh's own extinct volcano, Arthur's Seat, (see here) in previous posts , and read today from the Scottish capital's Evening News of how plans are afoot to illuminate the sphinx-like hill to coincide with the the 2012 London Olympics.
On Monday just past a pair of royal stories were played by the BBC, the first concerning that old- fashioned meddling buffoon, Prince Charles, and his architecture charity, The Prince's Foundation, which he is apparently using in order to prevent modern type buildings being constructed. (here). The second regarded his older son: dynamic, handsome, forward thinking, uber-celebrity, Prince William, and the opening of a new facility at the Natural History Museum in London - The Darwin Centre - which features a breathtaking catalogue of plants and insects stored within an eight level "cocoon" as well as a, now almost ubiquitous, global warming/climate change educational centre.

Global warming and the Holocaust - the mainstay of modern education. Strange they both have to do with 'overheating'
