That's all well and good--and I agree with much of what you say--but realistic alternative energy isn't part of TTK & Co's plan either. (Sorry, but windmills just won't cut it.) He summed it up nicely earlier in this thread when he proclaimed his "long, long list of other things" on the fearmonger's political agenda--many of which, I'm sure, run contrary to what he recently called "that dusty and tired old document known as the US Constitution." In any event; what good is change based on a likely falsehood?
I will say that it's pretty sad when a YouTube video of John Stewart draws more reflective responses than the research of a well-credentialed and respected glaciologist. Cc.com is truly the home of the tool.
