Tim Hall: Actually, the Science you refer to is not entirely exact........ The reason cow grazing contributes to forest fires is quite simple.. Grasing cattle are the primary emitters of methane gas. As they chew their cuds, and their respective 7 stomachs digest same, a certain amount of biodegradation takes place causing a natural emission of methane from the posterior end of this digestive process. In this natural environment, lightening, discarded cigarettes, smoldering campfires (etc) provide a suitable source of ignition for combustible elements. And, as you may know, Methane is highly flammable and combustible. This gas, emitted from the natural (seemingly) and innocent digestive process of a here-to-for perceived contributor to the survival of the human species, vis-a-vie milk and beef production, is in the end, a danger or perhaps a direct threat to the species normally considered a beneficiary of said processies. That said, it may be advisable to re-evaluate your portfolio. An alternative: short teat, go long on FTEC(<<that's real), write puts on SHIT, go to www.grass.com for relief, and above all, call the COWS home b4 it gets dark.

Tim, <<on the radio today>> They were probably just reading an article from Northern Miner or an AZ BOM publication. <VBG>

clear cutting or forest fire. much more wood left over to make cool things like decks and baseball bats with clear cutting....thought it was the brink of another ice age, no, that was the fifties...no, it was overpopulation that was clearly the armaggedon, no wait, thats the sixties. it was the destruction of the rain forest and depleted energy sources, oops sorry seventies, should be easy to remember that exploitation of long gas lines. its the pollution of the water and oceans that will bring the doom, i know the eighties, or was it nuclear destruction. nope, im sure its the automobile and global warming we were all looking for all along....i dont know...my personal theory is it probably has something to do with nothing. poet refusing to stand with doomsdayers and figuring the only y2k problem mine will have is what the hell to do with all that gold. have a nice day everyone.

Tim, If you think Global Warming is a hoax,you should study the CFC hoax. This one is currently costing us any time we want air conditioners refilled. No one explained that 99% of all atmospheric chlorine is generated by The Good Lord's creation"Earth", not mankind,but that doesn't slow down Al! Best of Luck to you! TM

Mr Hall - since you have shown you really know knothing about this topic, it appears your motivation is to get into a frivilous OFF TOPIC argument...this is not this place. at this point it appears that you do know a little about investing and in particular GE, so i recommend sticking to that topic - because you will not win on this one. if your desire is truly to inquire and learn...feel free to e-mail me. i am always willing to share information. respectfully, toma
