The link seems to be working now. FWIW the IPCC took the same NASA satellite data that NASA analysed and concluded provided no evidence of lower atmospheric warming over the observation period, and IPCC reached a different conclusion. Your offensiveness does not enhance your credibility. Sorry, I want good scientific evidence prior to making drastic self immolating changes. If you wish to stick your head in the sand because your messiah has spoken, then don't try to dictate what the sane can do. You GW religious zealots are no different than the communists or islamic imperialists. You want to force those with intellectual curiosity to view the world through your rose colored glasses.

You are an idiot if you don't think human activity is effecting the environment. Dangerous idiots plant their head in the sand and say nothing is happening. I think you have put your finger on the core of the current GW phenom: guilt. We have been taught for too long that we are this big, huge, influence on the environment, which would be pure and balanced and unchanging without our polluting influence. But nature changes all the time, sometimes radically. Man's self-importance makes him feel that his influence must always be predominant. Because if it is, then he has ultimate control, right? If the science of the last century has taught us anything, it should be this: Reality is counter-intuitive.
