That is pretty scary but I'm not surprised. What scares me more is that I wonder how that article might tie into Bush's education plan. If he wants to test every child every year then someone will set up the criteria upon which each test is based ( a new bureaucracy ). What will keep the education dept. from including false info about global warming just to instill that agenda in the young kids!!!!! Since each school's funding will be tied to the students test scores, teacher's will have to push that agenda. What a convenient avenue for agenda indoctrination!!!!!

All global warming issues are difficult to assess in the lifetime of any one person. We tend to think of things in terms of years or decades but the real proof is in centuries and millenniums of study. The earth is old and some natural phenomena occur only every 500 to 1000 years so it's hard to analyze data over a short period. However, if there is marked changes that can not be found elsewhere in our history then we should opt on the side of caution.....that's my opinion anyway.
