Looks like if some of you do it right, you can buy some real estate now in Mississippi which will someday be some COOL Islands! |

Sorry for this off-topic post Tiger,
I know there is some debate going on all over the U.S. about the question of whether global warming is man-made or a natural occurance...
My VP is really interested in the issue, as it relates to our industry, he knows the guy in the email I'm posting below and he's coming to Korea to speak - October 17, we're planning a ceremony to launch a new building for my lab. If anyone is interested in seeing him speak, please pm me and I will make arrangements.

I was greatly surprised and dismayed to receive from Hillsdale College the August 2007 edition of your monthly publication , Imprimis, titled "Global Warming: Man-Made or Natural?", an essay by Fred Singer.
Fred's message in his Imprimis essay is that Global Warming in not man-made, is instead natural, hence we need not do anything about it.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
Is Fred Singer's message on Global Warming the message that Hillsdale College wishes to send to the 1,250,000 readers of Imprimis?
Or does Hillsdale College wish also to present the assessment of the overwhelming majority of the world's scientists who study this issue - as I have been doing for about 35 years now - that Global Warming is man-made and that we must urgently mitigate it?
Last February I debated Fred about Global Warming on Milt Rosenberg's program, Extension 720, on WGN radio.
I am also a member of Illinois Governor Blagojevich's 40-member Climate Change Advisory Group. The ICCAG is charged by Governor Blagojevich to develop policies that will meet his two goals of reducing Illinois' emissions of greenhouse gases to their 1990 levels by 2020, and to 60% below their 1990 levels by 2050. On 6 September the ICCAG will meet for its fifth and final time this year to select those policies, which will subsequently be communicated to the Governor via an ICCAG report.
