Hi wasters,
Boggers could you please let us know how many of your arrested protesters are feom the locality.All you do is intimadate the locals.The failure of Gerry Cawley to get reelected showed you all how much support you have from the locals

Donpedrosan - As for the end of your latest comment (What do I propose we do). I have no proposal, I think at this point, global warming is inevitable and it is far far far too late for alternate energy to be developed and then thrity years later put into widespred use. The damage will be permanent. I think we should give it a good college try though, see if man can cheat danger AGAIN, but at this point its clear the figuritive axe of neglect has already been raised

you say that it is "far far far too late" (even though that energy could be put into use in about 5 years - if the political will was there) ...but we should "give it a good college try" ... so you propose to engage in an act of futility in your eyes? Anyway, if you have the inclination to discuss such hopelessness, as you do - - you may propose to analyse what exactly the problem is (i say its political) - if not what to do

donpedrosan - Yep. For instance, central africa wont even notice in the slightest. none of the reprecussions affect them whatsoever, they dont even trade with most other nations, itll just be like any other day for them. im not saying it wont seriously impend on the progress on mankind or wipeout much of civilization, im saying it wont wipe us out entirely

well, then its not a serious problem then, eh? (you admit nitpicking - I'll admit hyperbole...deal?) The questions is 1) are you an apologist for GW? and, more importantly, 2) what do you propose we do about it?

donpedrosan - I'm sorry, looking back at my last comment I didn't make my message blunt enough, I believed you were capable of understanding this without second digestion: I am not ignoring global warming or its risks, nor am I defending Bush although I'm a conservative partisan, what I AM saying is that global warming will not drive man to his extinction. Thats it. Dont look any further. Not in denial or dismissing scientific fact, just correcting the statement tht it will lead us all to peril.

so its not "far far far too late"....(i'm confused. I don't know what you are try to say...the second comment seems a retraction of the first...almost an attempt to cover up some 'mistake' you've made)
