How did you know? : )

I closed one eye and I saw....

You're stupid! Do you know what the surface temperature on
Venus is? It's hot enough to melt lead - almost 500 degrees C.
It would take a million years to cool the planet down enough
to make it liveable even if something could be done with the
atmosphere.

Terraforming is out of the question unless we had the technology
to move the planet out of orbit to the area of the asteroid belt
to let it cool down for several thousand years.

Not sure about that or else.

Venus is covered with clouds.

Venus could be terraformed and an atmosphere could be created from the one she already has. Albeit, we don't have the
technology to pull it off yet. But we will. Much better than living in plasto-enviro units on Mars where even if there is
water under the surface, it would not be sufficient to create a breathable atmosphere.

I got drunk with the Irish Rovers at Dick Turpins Pub in Halifax
years ago.

Now if you had said the Clancy Brothers I would have been impressed.

Terraforming is out of the question=20

No, it is not....it would take the careful launching of the right amount =
of chemicals to clear off the atmosphere to let out the greenhouse =
gasses. Venus, like all the planets in this solar system, is getting =
older by the minute. The only reason she is that hot is volcanism. =
Earth did the same thing. One day in the future, she will slow down her =
spewing and the greenhouse effect that now exists will slowly dissipate. =
And as for youe negative adjective, I got an "A" on the paper I did on =
this subject in Climatology. I used several doctoral theses as =
reference to my paper. But then, what can we expect from an anachronism =
like you? You probably still believe the moon is made of green cheese.
