As such, the government should be planning to bring us towards energy independence by incenting conservation of the imported energy we currently consume while concurrently driving us towards a new source that is indigenous to the US. (2.) Global Warming. While far from proven it's a risk that Big Insurance feels is large enough to impact rates for. That means it's a risk to US security, at least based on actuarial calculations. Therefore the government, in it's role of protecting its population, should take action to mitigate the risk. If you feel no such risk is possible, then you should pursue that agenda. However I would offer that saying it doesn't exist is as accurate as saying it does. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Download the latest ColdFusion 8 utilities including Report Builder, plug-ins for Eclipse and Dreamweaver updates. http;//www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=labs%5adobecf8%5Fbeta Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:240237 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
