WRONG. Try this one out.

Drought's Growing Reach: NCAR Study Points to Global Warming as
Key Factor. "The percentage of Earth's land area stricken by serious
drought more than doubled from the 1970s to the early 2000s, according
to a new analysis by scientists at the National Center for Atmospheric
Research (NCAR)."

NCAR and UCAR, two more organizations you no doubt would like to see
axed, and eliminated, because you prefer to kill the messenger rather
than listen to the message.

There was an interesting programme on UK channel 4 television last night,
called "What would Jesus drive?" about Americans' love of their gas-guzzling
automobiles. A typical SUV does 16-19 mpg; Americans drive a lot because
it's a big country; and it only costs the equivalent of GBP 8.50 to fill-up
in the US, whilst it costs GBP 40 in the UK.

It has always been my understanding, that from an energy and pollution

standpoint, more of both is consumed/released in the fabrication of
these articles than they will ever contribute in their operating
lifetimes.

I have a lot I bought to retire on, it is 263 feet below sea
level. Has been dry for over two thousand years. Don't expect
it to change anytime soon! Of course there are mountains over
2,000 feet high between the valley and the Pacific ocean.

Maybe you bought my Uncle's place. Once you get there, I'd be
interested in examining the mechanisms behind the last flood.

But why do you conservatives not insist that our government follow
a similar responsible policy? Our cities and towns must keep a
balanced budget, by law. So must our states. Why not the federal
government and our country as a whole (i.e., all of us = balance
of trade)?

Trade deficit reaches record $60B
http://money.cnn.com/2005/01/12/news/economy/trade_balance/

"The trade deficit has been driving the dollar downward for months
as foreign investors are concerned about the country's ability to
finance the debt. The greenback fell sharply shortly after the
release of Wednesday's news."

I don't know how much bearing this has on our discussion, but I saw on a TV
show about modern American railroads that a significant portion of rail
traffic today is containers transferring between a ship on one coast to a
ship on the other. It seems that the cheapest method of shipping from China
to Europe (and back, presumably) includes a link across America's rail
lines.

Oh, Yeah!

I'm reassured now. I didn't think we did anything in the US anymore.
Huzzah! We have a future.

Interesting.

The first I have heard about this. Imagine real info creaping into this

Would be nice. It removes my guilt about driving a big truck and feeding

we can enjoy it while the sun lets us.

Try this for a example of the definition.

I agree that there is little chance of agreement, but I do know
what I am talking about, which leaves? You did try to look it up?
Didn't you?

I do not expect to change your mind. I do not care what you
believe about the insurance. But I would like to say I lit a
