    Give it some time, they will migrate to something else besides the weather. It’s pathetic that the insurance journal has editors uses the industry to advance their personal political agendas.

    Valerie Plame. Ask Scooter. He can’t stop talking about her.

    “We certainly wouldn’t dispute any of the concerns that they raise,” said Bob Miller, spokesman for the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, noting the NPCA’s proposed solutions “are basically the same things we would suggest.”
    In other words, now armed with study data, they will do what they would have done otherwise. Lucky they got all that great help.

    Sorry, I don’t believe any outgassing politicians. Must have read it in some scientific journal somewhere, like Methane Today, Rolling Cows, etc. PS: I don’t disagree, this stuff does not seem to belong here.

    If you don’t believe Al Gore, try visiting Alaska and look at what’s left of glaciers that have melted more in the last 30 years than in the 300,000 years.

    It doesn’t take an Insurance Broker to figure out that this is going to effect all of us.

    Yup, and as I sit here right on my Ocean front home here in Hawaii, my back yard is now part of the Pacific Ocean! The Ocean is rising, it’s rising, Mommy!

    “Is it too much to ask IJ to do the same?”

    One of the problems with the left is they are so insecure on who they are that nobody should dare to question them. A responsible publication will publish both sides. The IJ is not balanced because the editors have no interest in being balanced as their personal adenda comes first. You notice the IJ interviews some Berkeley leftist on the so called “global warming” issue, yet they do not have someone to debate him (and hold him out to be some expert).

    In this interest of fairness, I post this article link from Michelle Malkin…

    Help me out…are you folks saying you don’t think the planet is warming or are you saying it’s just not man that’s causing it?

    Those are some of the questions. But we dare not ask those questions because some of us have already decided, and darn it, we don’t want to revisit our decision.
    Maybe because we have a lot of money riding on the one decision and can’t afford a different decision. And what if the earth is warming? Is it man made and if so, what does that mean? We are told that many will die as a result of Gorebal warming, but not told how many die each year from a much bigger problem, cold weather. Also, I am a fan of man for many reasons, not the least of which is how adaptable man is to changing conditions. How many weather cycles have we weathered in say, the last 20,000 years? For my region, the northwest, Gorebal warming may represent an improvement to our weather conditions.
    I know its a sin to think that way but I look at how much my environment has changed the last 48 years in all sorts of ways and I tend to think worrying about the weather is kind of stupid. Cut down on pollution? Heck yeah! Get china and India to go along? Good luck. Our water quality, our air quality, our quality of life look better than any time in our life. There are those who really want us to believe otherwise.
