Moron.

We live in interesting times.

True. But then, so has everyone else.

It's starting to look like the sky
might indeed be falling. Sure, the jury is still out.
But at the very least, there is enough evidence out there now
to make you think about it. And wonder what comes next.

To SOME it's starting to look like the sky might indeed be falling. The
rest of us heard it crash a long time ago.

Also, from what I've seen, those who knee-jerk reject the various
global warming scenerios tend to do so for political reasons,
rather than analytical reasons.

Maybe so. Still, there's no way humans will ever be able to put a sizeable
dent in the limitless flocks of the passenger pigeons that blot out the sun
for days at a time as they pass overhead; the bison roam the prairies in
countless numbers as they have always done and will always do; the great
Eastern forest will stand forever, immune to humankind's puny depredations;
and the cod will eternally form a carpet that a man can walk across with dry
feet, half-way across the Atlantic.

MUST be some bad news lurking out there somewhere.
