Happy Thanksgiving buddy. I'm thankful for having you as a friend.

Political thread agreement alert! All is right with the world and my heart is warmed, especially today on this most benevolent of holidays.

I think if you read my entire body of work , you would see that I am not against a cleaner environment, looking for new fuel sources, or limiting the amount of crap we spew into the atmosphere. My point has always been that it be done in a reasonable, economically sound way and not based on American Idol type science.

BTW; I do a lot of the feel good things. Even started using Greenergle, instead of Google.

Back at you, Steve. May your holiday be free of linguistic conudrums which keep you up at night. Or...full of them?

The solution to the change in weather problem is quite difficult, because it is proven that this happens every 1500 years or so.

He cares so much that he wrote a book on the subject. Maybe you ought to read it.
Who is going to be responsible for educating us about dealing with global warming responsibly?

I think what the article is saying that no matter what we do we're going to have to just learn to live with global warming. We are humans supposedly the highest form of intelligence on th is planet. You'd think that after a few hundred years of this glabal wamring that we'll get used to it and deal with it. By that time we'll be heading into glabal cooling.

What will Al Gore do by then? Write another article" The earth is having a cool down."
