Quote of the Week - Arrogance of Global warning
is found here:

"First of all, I don't think it's within the power of human beings to assure that the climate does not change, as millions of years of history have shown," he continued. "And second of all, I guess I would ask which human beings — where and when — are to be accorded the privilege of deciding that this particular climate that we have right here today, right now is the best climate for all other human beings. I think that's a rather arrogant position for people to take."
While I won't be quoted, I maintain 1) there is no man-caused global warming and 2) we ought not to do anything about the appearance of global warming.
But maybe one good thing can come of all of the religious movement that calls itself environmentalism, ecology, green, etc.. An alternative to oil -- not for the sake of the environment, which is not really much at risk from a global perspective, but to end our dependance on foreign oil.
As long as I'm rambling -- here is another prediction: Gas prices will continue to rise, making the oil in the U.S., which is currently too expensive to extract, a profitable venture. Americans will keep paying more and alternative fuel supplies will also become more cost effective.
