Funny how the same GOP tends to believe the science when they go see their doctors...yet when it comes to big business(big $$$$$$$$$$$), let's just dispute the claims since JQ Public cannot tell the difference between science and science fiction...ah we need MORE studies, and for the gov't scientists that go go along with "our" policy, don't let the door hit you.

Kind of like lawyers now...it's not about justice, it's just about getting your snout as deep into the trough as possible.

Also, are you a Smoker or NonSmoker?

A judge ruled yesterday that a jury should decide whether tobacco companies must pay tens of millions of smokers up to $200 billion for allegedly duping them into buying light cigarettes over the past 3 decades.

Also, is there a 3rd scenario that you would like to see take place?

I read an article a few years ago about U.S. military equipment that was left behind by the warehouseful during the Vietnam pullout in 1975. Specifically Huey engines still sealed in shipping containers along with lots of other items. Anyone have any idea were to look for such information?

If you haven't seen it, it's on You Tube. See : http://youtube.com/watch?v=UaNIBFSMjb8 . Or search for "Clinton" and "Fox" in the You Tube search box. I can't say I'd be unhappy if Bin Laden would suddenly disappear But still...

Surely there has been improvement for the citizens in some areas of Iraq. We have been on holiday for two weeks where there were no newspapers and no TV News. Just occasionally it would be interesting to read a report on a good deed just to lighten the day. So depressing! I am glad that there was no TV during the last War when I was growing up. It would have been horrific.

Does Hugo Chavez's seal of approval officially mean that Noam Chomsky is perhaps the best known of all American traitors (after Michael Moore)?

How is Angola, Africa's water system like? Like do they conserve water, or go and get it by a body of water(river,lake,etc.) or do they get it out a faucet. I just need to know everything about what they do with the water, how do they purify the water, how do they get it to be steralized. And I need numbers of how many time they use their water, how much water they have, and etc.

I know that some of you don’t believe in global warming, so PLEASE READ this before you answer:

On July 14 the Wall Street Journal ran an editorial suggesting that the evidence for global warming is weak. In the October 2006 issue of Scientific American, scientists offered a challenge to the Wall Street Journal editorial staff.

Here is a quote:
“Many of the world’s leading climate scientists are prepared to meet with the editorial board of the Wall Street Journal and to include in that meeting any climate skeptics that its editorial board wants to invite.”

Of course finding climatologists who are skeptical of global warming will be a challenge since virtually 100 percent agree that the evidence is strong. Even reports commissioned by the Bush administration agree with the climatologists. The only report sited by the Wall Street Journal editors is one conducted by three statisticians who have no background in climate science!

Everytime I turn on to NBC they are talking about another murder, another rape, another missing child--then they hold Court on the subject for weeks and weeks (Jon Benet, for example). Why are Americans so obsessed with crime?

The half a million would be a high-pressure one with lots of responsibility, but one for which you were capable with great effort.
The 50 thousand one would be managing the fiction section at Border's book store.
If this was a real choice, which one would you take? The easy 50K, or the ballbusting 500K?
