We know the train is leaving the station but we don'tknow if it is 10 O'clock today, tomorrow, or next week.

You're changing the scenario. We have Al Gore telling us the train leaves at ten today. It's his tipping point, not mine. Were it not for his tipping point, we would not be having this discussion. So you can't argue that we don't know when the train is leaving. That's the key parameter of the discussion.

Even if we are an hour away and the train leaves in ten minutes, we are still not going to give up.

Now we are getting to the point. If you want to head for the station under those conditions, go ahead. Be sure to take your tin foil hat with you. And don't expect those of us with our feet on the ground to pay your cab fare.
