#1 I guess I am not smart enough to understand the debate. One group claims that the earth is getting warmer because of mans activity. The only way to solve this prob is to tax everyone and invest that money in prgram that have nothing to do with the original premise or more likely will never be used on said programs. FYI we have had damn few 100 plus days this summer and nobody has ever told me what is the perfect temp.

#3 Clue: send money. Now put your hands over your eyes and think happy thoughts.

Al Gore is only trying to help you.

Well, in the Church of Gorism the unwashed masses are guilty of sin against Gaia for expecting the live like the acolytes of the church. The only way to rid themselves of that sin is to obey and to pay indulgences which of course are used by the faithful in administering the rites and rituals of the True Church. That is why the truly faithful may live in a manner that is inconsistent with what they preach.

It's the model of numerous and most religions in man's history.

#5 Look on the bright side: the conference is reducing its carbon footprint.

#6 Yes, Mike, but think of poor Al. He's not gonna get all that moolah for carbon credits if they stay home.

#7 I expect the government is afraid of an unseasonable blizzard, record cold, freezing rains, and the complete shutdown of Copenhagen and surrounding areas for at least a week if the conference goes as scheduled.
Twenty thousand fewer mouths to feed during that period is a good idea.

#8 Cancellation of 20,000 hotel reservations for a global warming conference? That is a good sign. It means that people are waking up to the fraud of global warming...or that the economy is too bad for people to be able to afford to attend.
