We must be about the same place now. I am at the point where the guy is talking about mosquitoes thriving.

Yet, some people scream the earth is about to end after watching that movie. The side of the world ending has been way more politicized than the other. >I don't have an answer for you.

I prefer facts and verifiable proof. One thing in this video that really stood out to me was how we now use satellites to see what is going on right now. We live in a world of "I want it yesterday" and very little patience. Sure, we can see the ice caps melting and such but that doesn't mean it hasn't happened for millennia and there is a crisis. The earth has been here for billions or years and gone through many climate changes on its own and survived. >>>Think, research, think some more, then believe. >> >> Believe what? > >Whatever you determine is right. > >Would "decide" have been a better word? I would go with "decide based on actual, real, hard facts, not feelings or belief." :-) Greg [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!
