Does an ex-politician like Al Gore, as he flies around the world doing his PowerPoint show, collecting his Oscar for An Inconvenient Truth, lapping up praise from an uncritical media and kidding about whether he'll run for president, strike you as someone who truly believes we're facing Armageddon?

"People like Al Gore jet about the earth, living from mansion to mansion and say that they want to drastically lower the living standards for most people on the earth. Then, the so called peoples's people, who talk about "eqality" the most, think this is just fine."

This country is so ignorant, as to be beyond belief. If it were true that CO2 was the culprit, then temperatures should have increased faster in the last few years instead of incrementally over 30 or 40 years.

China and India are and will be putting enough CO2 into the atmosphere to make anything we do totally insignificant. Last I heard, China's chief source of energy and heat was dirty coal burning.
