This author missed a couple of topics. When I was in college in the early 1970's there was much wringing of hands over excess population and the impending Ice Age!

Heh. I got out of diapers by the mid '70s. ;-)

...there was much wringing of hands over excess population and the impending Ice Age!

I've heard that before. Of course, the point obviously isn't the environment, it's about promoting socialism. So the scare tactics are applied whether it's an Ice Age, Global Warming or the Golden Cheeked Warbler.

And we'd be out of oil before 2000.

I wish someone like John Stoessl would just do a one hour special and "name names"
of all the tenured poobahs who made these doomsday pronouncements and still
got to keep their jobs.

I guess what really p-sses me off is that they were allowed to keep their teaching
jobs and indoctrinate later generations with the same clap-trap.
