Frankly I think people make too big of a deal out of the fact that some groups question what the healthy majority of all scientists agree on. That's like saying evolution is a myth because a few wackos think Intelligent Design is the real deal. Or that simply because Einstein's theory of relativity cannot fully explain all gravitational phenomena we have observed that it is wrong.

Even if scientists have not worked out all the kinks in explaining something as massively complex as extrapolating the relationship between every phenomenon that contributes to climate change and aggregate global temperatures does not mean they are wrong. It justs means that their conclusion is like ANY OTHER scientific conclusion, imperfect. We're human. No scientific theory we have ever come up with has been perfect.

The theory of evolution is still far from perfect, and many scientists disagree about a lot of the finer details of the theory of evolution. That doesn't make it wrong.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S.
