Thanked: 143I stopped subscribing to this thread as nothing new seemed to be discussed. I vented my steam! But when I saw that article I had to post it. I lived through that time and that helps put today's AGW dogmatism in perspective.
Note that very few people actually *care* about this. Polls show that most people think it is hogwash: Americans Skeptical of Science Behind Global Warming - Rasmussen Reports™. Now don't tell me there is a huge amount of data that shows global warming is "true". I know. It's the "A" in "AGW" that's bogus, not the "GW".
The problem is few people understand the potential harm that it can do. "It" being the measures being proposed (e.g. Cap and Trade), not global warming itself. Polls also show this: Congress Pushes Cap and Trade, But Just 24% Know What It Is - Rasmussen Reports™.
Oddly enough, our lawmakers do (or did) understand all this. I think the vote to ratify the Kyoto treaty was actually 100% against. (Would need to look it up to be sure.) I suspect a vote today would be different but still fall short of ratification.Last edited by TexasBob; 12-06-2009 at 10:59 PM.
