Gore still hot on his doomsday rhetoric

The screenshot with the big red arrow didn't do anything for you?

Actually it did.  I was just thinking of an old Farside cartoon.

[Balog]

Ah, now you mention it that is a classic. I should really pull out my Far Side books, I could use a laugh...

See the arrow in the graphic dogmush posted?  Click on the box it's pointing at (next to the address bar), and your problems should stop.

An interesting way to separate sensible people from the true believes is to ask people whether they're willing to allow people pursue ALL avenues of fueling the modern world, both conventional AND alternative.  The sensible person will be happy to have any viable alternative be explored.  The true believer will try to tell you that only his preferred methods should be allowed, other methods should be prohibited by legislative fiat.

Take it a step further and ask 'em if they're willing to let the oil-supporters fund oil development and let the wind/sun/whatever supporters fund wind/sun/whatever energy development.  Allow Exxon and T Boone to both offer their wares for sale, and let consumers and investors decide for themselves which they'd prefer to buy into.  Enviro nuts always howl at that one.

At a point in time some of the alternatives are not economically feasible. Butanol and ethanol are two examle. So is Hydrogen gas. Maybe someday.
