Steve -- I don't care about any "fence". I'm all for any sane environmental regulation -- whatever the cost.

Hate to brush up against the conspiratorial crowd but there are elite interests (political and economic) that see U.S. hegemony or any sort of nationalism as bothersome. Environmental regulation is part of their arsenal.

Too many environmental issues are political issues. I just moved from a county in California that had worked faithfully for a dozen years on a "general plan".

At the last instant, before the plan went into effect, a few who were unable to impose their narrow interests on the many went to court and took the planning effort back to square one. How? They found about five acres that were a "potential" habitat for an endangered species.
Mind you -- none of these creatures had ever been seen in this area -- but it was acknowledged that if any ever showed up, the existing environment might be hospitable.

Climate control? We don't even have the "cloud seeding" thing down.

"Inexhaustible" anything? Rubbish. I part totally from Rush, John Paul II and whoever else on this one. I am and will remain opposed to abortion but the effect of too many people on any environment is bad.

Wow, I'm rambling all over the place. Really is way past bedtime.
