Global Warming
I can agree with the 2nd paragraph after the first sentence. but you're forgetting that there was alternative fuels that Ford was pushing....now gasoline is subsidized heavily, that's always a boon to make more/not look for alternatives.... farming ( raising food supply with the use of land, including livestock )..anything is practically subsidized, even not farming sometimes is subsidized, making those "products" lower priced thus increasing demand in the market place. Subsidies are a "leftist" policy, akin to socialism. global warming hysteria is about telling people what you can and can't do. If CO2 is pollution then can't fires be regulated. you better not exersize too much, you'll produce to much CO2 from all your aerobic workings. Global warming is causing to address the symptoms, not the root cause (if it's true). But, conversly, there are "right wing nut jobs" that think that being irresponsible with the land (from any other veiwpoint) is ok. it's not. T Roosevelt is a great example of a lost part of "the right", setting up nation parks. that idea is socialist too, but very inline with conservation. with out getting it into the nation system "public property" and other peoples private property should be able to have the most stringent pollution laws as the people "holding the land" see fit. what do you think about these statements?

Global Warming
+1 If there isn't legit discussion about it, it's basically hysteria, which is how much of the media talks about it. the guy that made the weather channel doesn't believe in it. the Penn and teller's BS on global warming shows the extremes that some people will do for something they evidently know very little about....Sheeple

GM to Make Major Technology Announcement
love that chopped on BAS! LOL i think people would live with a ~5500 redline for that kind of power/economy.... with a 6 speed of course. 2 more years to wait though?! hopefully in 2 years the 2.4L could be making at least 190hp by itself. 20% better.... something like 28/34 sound right for a malibu use?

China, Sweden, Alberta??
wow.. the wiki article on that party seems broad. seems that it has gone through many more ideal shifts than you 'd tihnk other parties have had. I skimmed it .. alittle deep... seems to be a quite broad party for the most part, or at least a very varied history. I doubt this will get more than a few hours of media coverage, if that. not because of it's importance or un-importance...."we" just won't care.

Latest climate data
I agree. the only 2 things about that info that could be wrong is if "fossil fuel" is a misnomer and it is endless for the length of our dependence on it, and only if every day out of the year breaks a record, somehow... not likely at all, provided no nuclear winter.
