Shule shule, shule aroon Shule the agaragar, shule the coon Shule shule shule aroon I don't think that anyone should tie me oh Here I sit on Buttermilk Hill Weep I will and weep my fill Every tear would turn a mill Johnny is gone for a soldier I'll send my flax sell my meal, Sell my only spinnin' wheel Buy my love a sword of steel Johnny's gone for a soldier Loved him oh I loved him so Broke my heart to see him go Only time can heal my woe Johnny's gone for a soldier I sold my flax and my meal Sold my only spinnin' wheel Now he's dead upon the field Johnny's gone for a soldier

Is the Internet a real and useful invention, which makes many new things possible? Yes. So therefore, we should have invested in every dot.com bubble stock available in 1999? No. That's the difference between fact and mass hysteria. The mass hysteria and the overselling of every anecdote that supports catastrophic warming is right up there with the dot.com bubble, along with the suppression of every anecdote that doens't support it. And for the same basic reason - suppression of healthy scepticism. In the first case from greed, in the second from fear and lust for power.
