Zonder.. Isn't it something to wonder about if "scientists" are claiming that heavier than air CFCs can reach the upper stratosphere, yet man-made Ozone doesn't do exactly the same thing??

We create so much surface ozone on this planet already that I can hardly find it credible to discuss one effect without discussing the other (mixing between atmospheres)..

The bottom line is that the scientific process is still uncertain, and we lack sufficient data points to ascertain exactly whether global warming actually is, or isn't, occurring... And then we have to ascertain what that range of warming and cooling has been over the centuries, if not millenia..

Thus, policy should follow science... Science should not become politicized with researchers all out there making spurious claims in order to squeeze some more $$$$ out of Uncle Sugar by way of grants..
