Here's my point

I don't think anyone has the answer. If I'm going to dismiss respected scientists I'm certainly going to dismiss an engineer. Things ARE changing - is this natural, man made or a combination? Chances are its a little of both. I'm guessing it's both but I DON'T KNOW! Thats the whole crux of this issue for me. I don't know and neither does Al Gore or Rush Limbaugh. Instead of quietly going about research we've opted to make this a political event so know all logic is out the window.

Regardless of global warming we need to find an alternative fuel source (and that will include Nuclear even though I hate it) that burns cleaner and is plentiful. We need this because we have to reduce our need for oil AND the side benefit of environmentally friendly is great!

What we can't do is go broke by funding a hypothesis. I don't recall the fuel additive that we used in the 90's but it was going to result in a cleaner burn. We did a few tests, poured money into it and put it on the market. Well guess what? The offshoot is now laying at the bottom of our lakes in the southwest.
