GST: I have just read through your posts for the last few days, and while it seems you take a lot of heat on this thread, I believe you are correct in your assertions.

You will never do a disservice pointing out the massive damage we as Americans have done to the global environment, usually while pointing a finger at someone else. Our hubris and entitlement know no bounds. Karl
