    Wow - I always thought that, but wasn't sure it was true. Now I know it is.
    After all, I read it right here on the internet.

    YOu can't be serious??!?! You're comparing people burning some wood
    or coal for heat with millions of cars on the road and huge factories
    pumping out C02?
    I think there's a lot more C02 than they need.

    But, he raised a valid point Chris. It's about the data, the interpretation
    of the data, the validity of the data. Some of us have been around long
    enough to have heard the same arguments, the same "use" of data, the same
    alarms, just related to issues that are the complete opposite of today's pet
    issues. I don't know if you've been around long enough to remember the
    stuff Matt's talking about, but I am. His point is one you need to address
    if you really want to be held as credible in your position.

    Why don't you guys just go to one of the environment newsgroups and
    carry on this discussion. It has devolved to totally off-topic. Where
    is the Hyundai connection?

    Well, I understand that you don't believe it's a wolf as someone has
    called that before and it didn't occur but one time, it just might be
    real.

    My thoughts exactly. Run with the lemmings and enjoy the swim.
