I'm sorry, where did you get *any* of this from what I posted? Given that
you read it so carefully you didn't even pick up how I spell my name perhaps
I shouldn't be surprised.
We had this attitude before, in the leaving gates open thread. People whose
definition of "open minded" means "agrees with me".
How dare I hold a point of view which is at odds with yours, and present all
those inconvenient *facts* to boot, when I should just roll over and adopt
yours wholesale.
I will change my mind if I ever see the green argument presented in
scientific terms which don't have great gaping holes in them you could drive
an environmentally friendly bus through, assuming such a thing existed.
