Thanks for your well thought out reply. I agree with you with regards to the banter back and forth on SI with regards to GW. Isn't it ironic that GW is now the acronym that we are all using for global warming?!?

My personal feeling is that we need to be very careful with our treatment of the planet so for me its an important issue. Lets face it, no matter what side of the debate you're on we haven't been and still aren't diligent in our handling of our planet's air and water supply. Its a duty to our future generations in my opinion to keep it as clean as possible even if you don't believe that pollution is accelerating GW.

What I find fascinating is that I'm learning that the folks who are against curtailing emissions for the sake of economics are the very same ones who have no problem pouring 100s of billions of dollars into endless wars. Only fractions of that expenditure would go a long way to reducing our polluting ways.
