You are wrong on the Global Warming issue. Plain and simple. If you think you and the majority of the people know more about the Earth's climate then you are a fool!

I'll continue to listen to the well educated scientist that were the ones that got John Glenn and the other men to the moon and back. \

I've yet to see some HS drop-out do something as great as put men on the moon and bring them back. That will only happen when Pigs sprout wings and fly!

I'll listen to the Elite College Educated Scientists and not the uneducated masses that you speak of. Most people don't know what's going on around them and get all their news and education on the radio and TV.

Speaking or Radio and TV. The link I posted to the CNN show Crossfire was about all the negative propaganda that's been put out on Radio and TV by the Right Wing Extremist in the Fossil Fuel Industry. People like the Koch Brothers have spent millions of dollars on false TV and Radio propaganda and false stories in the news papers. They took the initiative and got their side of the story out in a massive way. They have billions of dollars to play with and will spend millions to ensure that we stay on Fossil Fuel Based Energy Economy for the next 100 years or more (for as long as possible) so that they can continue to make more money and keep their billions. Because once the people see that alternative energy can full fill a lot of our energy needs we won't need to spend billions of dollars on polluting fossil fuels and the Koch Brother's profits will shrink. They are not about to let that happen.

We could easily start to fund alternative fuels and get off coal and oil as much as possible. We can't get rid of fossil fuels entirely just yet but we can start to limit their use by switching to some alternative energy resource today and not wait until we run out of coal or oil.

I personally think that Fuel Cell Technology is the future. And Al Gore has nothing to do with Fuel Cells.
Hahahahaha ok old man...I'll just agree to disagree. We will never see eye to eye on this but I will say this again...until you and all the other "believers" set an example of living a life style with restrictions on your energy and fuel usage nothing will be accepted as truth by the majority. You will have people who say they believe but they don't practice what they preach....they drive full sized SUV's, fly in commercial Jets, own plasma TV's and enjoy all the comforts of living like computers and scores of electronic gadgets. If that happens (it won't) people will start to believe but only if we are seeing undisputed truths to the claims of Global Warming. Blaming weather cycles and any natural occurrence on Global Warming isn't going to convince people to change.

Remember how a large majority of Americans never really had thoughts of terrorism before 911? People like me who spent time in the Military overseas lived dealing with terrorists. We trained on dealing with them and had drills on how to react to attacks. We were used to seeing Military or Police with Machine Guns walking around in Airports because that's the reality of living overseas. Once 911 happened civilians understood that terrorists were real and started to support the money spent on anti-terrorist causes. We now fly with the TSA groping and searching us, airports take longer to get through and security in general has been ramped up. It took an event that we could hear, feel and see for ourselves to change the mindset and sadly many don't believe or could car less any more about anti-terrorist moves because Americans in General have short memories.

My point is until Americans can see, feel or hear something more than political figures, talk show hosts, "scientists" who we don't know very little will change.....or it will take politicians shoving legislation on us and restricting our access to fossil fuels and taxing us to the point of submission before it becomes accepted and the thought of that happening scares me.
