...And its notoriety should only grow as world climate specialists gather in England in early February to hash out the latest studies on global warming Do not ignore the highly controversial non-fiction work of Danish Bjorn Lomborg "The Sceptical Environmentalist", which is now available in several languages including English. Unfortunately this guy successfully applies flawless statistical methods on the very data produced by the "believers" and thus drive them in rage. Lomborg is a professor at the University of Arhus in Denmark and also a former member of Greenpeace. Taro amazon.com

WASHINGTON (AFP) - Michael Crichton, author of "Jurassic Park," and his newest book cast doubt the danger of global warming, an issue dividing scientists and politicians around the world. Its important to note......Mr. Chrichton is an arch GOPer and a neocon and not a practicing scientist. Only in a state where democracy is becoming tenuous would a non authority like Mr. Chrichton be given so much credibility by its leaders. Do you think Bush et al paid him to write his book?

shorty, Repeating lies does not make them true. You really have run out of material, haven't you. It's pathetic to see how truly shallow you are.

"Michael Crichton" While I have enjoyed his work, "Andromeda Strain" showed he didn't have the slightest clue as to what he was writing about. His later work did not increase my confidence. "Jurassic Park", and it's follow ons, is total nonsense from a scientific point of view. With the technology that we have, there is no way we could have recovered sufficient information from the stomach contents of a mosquito to reconstruct a dinosaur. So the basic premise of JP breaks on the rocks of reality...
