    This is one of the advantages of global Warming- the snow line will never get as far south as Colorado! Good news for the inhabitants, who don't want all those polar bears. And who don't want to be invaded by people from the same state as the Prez.
    And it will also be good news for the snow, which must have been pained by all those people who wanted to assert their superiority by walking all over it!
    Oh, sure, profiteering businesses will lose out, or move, but who needs a viable economy anyway? We can all live on welfare, can't we?

    Speaking of Global Warming and Faith-based Greens, I heard a noon newscast by CNN which featured a 10 second sound bite of Al Gore addressing Congress about the alleged need for action regarding the "looming crises" in earth's climate, all brought about, of course, by Homo Saps and his "hideous footprint".

    Then, to my gaping astonishment, the CNN reporter featured a soundbite of Steven Molloy of Junkscience.com stating to the effect that:"There is no hard sicence to back up the claim of anothropological warming, nor the belief that reducing co2 would yield cooler temperatures. What we do know with certainty is that imposing co2 reductions will force energy costs much higher. The CNN reporter then wrapped up this 2 minute segment with the observations that "Many scientists question the credibility of global warming science, and contend that some elements of this science have been forged." Or words to that effect.

    We should e-mail thanks to CNN for honest objective reporting about a highly controversial subject. There is no doubt that the news program's producer is about to suffer intense criticism and pressure for airing views, such as Molloy's, that challenge the orthordox "correct" position on this important isssue.
