wrote: Remember, academics recieve grants for studying an impending doom, not for studying "Everything is fine". Its all a question of scare tactics. Thats why there are so many nut cases out there. I know what you mean, these nut cases are everywhere. They actually think the world is like billions of years old, when we all know it's only 6000 years. The actually believe the earth is round and spins, and goes around the sun, and that the Earth is not the center or the universe, can you believe that? They think someday man will fly, that rockets will work in a vacuum, that man will walk on the moon, preposterous! The think that stars are actually suns way way far away, and that there are other worlds circling those suns, and get this, that there are other beings on those worlds, that is just ridiculous. Neutrinos, I never heard of such a thing! Carbon dioxide, what the hell is that? We need to run these nuts out of America for good, they're crazy!

Martin Brown:
The US is addicted to profligate waste of energy. Sooner or later you will pay very dearly for this misguided policy. Sooner or later!? With 1,500 American dead and over 10,000 wounded, an unknown (to me) number of British dead and wounded, _The Lancet_ estimating that 100,000 Iraqis have died from Allied fire, arrest and detention without charges, "extraordinary rendition," torture as an American institution (while homosexuality remains an "abomination,") an American national debt approaching $8 trillion, global warming*, and on and on, I would say that much of the world is already paying dearly for our misguided policies. Much, but not all of the world. Halliburton has contracts with the U.S. military valued at $21 billion, and Exxon again showed a record profit in 2004. Since these results, and similar ones throughout the energy industry, reflect the true purpose of American policy, it has to be declared an unqualified success.

My problelm with Kyoto is that it was from the same country that slaughters many whales "for scientific research" but the meat winds up in Japanese restaurants.
