Didn't go away, just stopped getting worse at an alarming rate.

No, also the massive SO2 that Mt Pinatubo put into the atmosphere slowly went away. And the CFCs.

Pinatubo created more sulfur emissions during its eruption than 10 years of all human coal burning.

And also on top of that we were also wrecking the Ozone.

Nature can always make our mistakes much much worse.

Didn't the hole above Australia close again?

As a kiwi, the amount of sunburn I get every summer would imply it hasn't.

Yeah but I'm pretty sure that's just cause the sun is upside down over there or something.

I thought it was Australia that's upside down, and New Zealand doesn't actually exist?

Down there??? The Earth isn't flat, you say??

The picture on your wall is also flat, still it has up here and down there

Of course it isn't flat, haven't you seen a mountain?

I think they meant down there on the map anyway.
