Wayne... I took no position on the relative merits of the case arguing for global warming.

I merely pointed out one GLARINGLY IDIOTIC comment made by 'John Stewart, chairman of Transport 2000, a pressure group'.

(And if you were to ask me for my personal position on the 'global warming debate' I'd answer that it doesn't even rank very near the top of my list of 'our most serious environmental problems'... but then I'm not living on a low-lying Pacific island.)

PS --- Your mention of CO2 ignores something: CO2 is not at all the only atmospheric gas that can promote warmer temperatures... and it is not even the one that can increase them the most, pound for pound in the air. For example, methane (CH4, commonly flared from oil wells and coal deposits around the world, leaking from trash dumps, a by-product of 'corporate farming' technologies such as massive feed lots, etc.) holds heat in the atmosphere four or five times more on a pound-for-pound basis then carbon dioxide does. Other gases as well....
