Has summer finally arrived?

We are now entering the second week of August and, looking at the reduced numbers of views to my own recent interview with Judge Napolitano on Judging Freedom compared to several weeks ago, as well as the comparatively reduced numbers of other interviewees with one or two exceptions (John Mearsheimer, in particular) it is manifestly obvious that the concerned citizens who constitute our audience have called it a day and are now at the beach somewhere or at another vacation getaway  where they are trying to enjoy life. That means putting aside all concern about why and how the end of the world is nigh.
