Bailey might be outright lying about the movie, . . . I don't think that. Do you? No I don't think he's lying, the other possibilities are that he was sloppy or that Gore was making a rather major and important exaggeration. Tim, if you really care about what this movie means/says, go see it. I imagine sooner or later I'll get a chance to see it for free at home. I don't really want my money going to the cause. Also I don't watch movies in the theater that much any more (since I have over a dozen movie channels) and if I do get out to the theater I think there are other things I'd enjoy more.

Luckily for me and others with Gore Derangement Syndrome, there is a book to accompany the movie, also titled "An Inconvenient Truth," and you can even check it out from the Fairfax Public Library, so I put a hold on it and will read it when it becomes available (or at least skim it and look at the pictures.) I am looking forward to the footnotes. I like footnotes. Rodale Press (which publishes Organic Gardening and Farming, and Runner's World, and Prevention Magazine, and Backpacker Magazine, etc.), which gives me a giggle. Oh, I shouldn't snicker, they also publish serious stuff like the South Beach Diet. (Snark, snark.)
