    We can all relax and learn to stop worrying climate change...

    David Suzuki said back in '94 (remember back then?) if we woke up in the morning and turned off the pollution spigot; it's already too late to stop the damage.
    Too much in the pipeline; it's now 18 years and nothing much has changed.
    So, kick back and quit worrying. Crack a cold one and have some fun.
    So, what's next?
    Frederick Douglass: Find out just what any people will quietly submit to
    and you have found out the exact measure of injustice
    and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these
    will continue till they are resisted with either
    words or blows, or with both.

    Suzuki has always struck me as a bit of an alarmist. tbo.

    He did help Greenpeace and Sea Shepherd though.

    Grow the hot jalepenos, chop wood, carry water, chill out, have a cool one, don't worry.

    Right on THX.

    I plan on filling my ice tray today. If enough people made ice cubes at home I'm sure we could offset the effect of the melting glaciers.

    ^ My solution is about as useful as anything the politicians have come up with.

    Russ needs to be concerned since the polar bears are going to all move South if the glaciers melt.

    Spot on; I filled 3 and will do it again for a total of 6 trays. I do believe you've started a movement, no?

    Oh good. I'll buy that beachfront plot I've had my eye on then. Can always raise it on stilts if the need arises.
    We could all sit outside on banana lounges discussing the best way to rebuild a 4WD transmission and agree, through shared stories of conquests supporting our assertions, that there is no basis to the proposition that those least assured of their persuasions are the first to condemn others for theirs.

    Maybe he was being alarmist then...but they didn't turn off the spigot...and now it is too late

    Hibernating? I'm not a stupid bear.

    Now irrelevant; it's too late; so enjoy what ever turns your crank, no?

    Then no amount of spigot turning would matter if it is not caused by man. Just sit back and enjoy the show.
