Al Gore is a politician not a scientist…and an extremist at that and we’ve all known this for years…his movie has no real credibility. Read this than see what you think. It drives me absolutely insane that these libs come out and get together with the drive by media to pray on the stupidity of everyday people who will believe anything they read in a newspaper and take it as facts. I believe in thinking for myself and making my own decisions. [http://www.canadafreepress.com/2007/global-warming020507.htm](http://www.canadafreepress.com/2007/global-warming020507.htm) ---

> [@wikipedia](#): > > Both as a Senator and Vice-President, Al Gore has been involved in the mainstreaming of the Internet since the 1970s (see Campbell-Kelly and Aspray, Computer: A History of the Information Machine, 1996:298). This involvement led to legislation during the late 1980s known informally as the ‘Gore Bill’.[3] It was passed, however, as the High Performance Computing and Communication Act of 1991 [4] on December 9 1991 and led to the NII or National Information Infrastructure [5] which Gore referred to as the Information superhighway. > > On 9 March 1999, during an interview on CNN’s Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer, Gore made the statement, “During my service in the United States Congress I took the initiative in creating the Internet.”[6] As a result of the publication of three articles in Wired News[7] (which focused upon the above interview), Gore’s statement, “I took the initiative in creating the Internet” became the subject of heavy satire.[8] Media reports surrounding this statement sometimes misrepresented Gore’s words to claim that he “invented the Internet”.[9] so while he didn’t write the code, he was incredibly important to the process. ---

I was under the impression that we were coming out of a recent (12,000 years ago) ice age. Somehow, I believed that naturally coming _out_ of it, temperatures would rise. Anyway, we’ve only got maybe 200 years of actual data to look at. Hardly even a footnote as climate change goes. And I see it this way…I didn’t even need a jacket here in the burgh on New Year’s Eve. yay for global warming! And, if I happen to end up with beachfront property, so be it. ---
