I finally saw "An Inconvenient Truth" last night. I have four conclusions:
(1) it's a pretty good film -- given that it's based on a PowerPoint Presentation. (2) not many people who don't already think that global warming is a big problem that _needs to be fought immediately_ will see this film. (3) Al Gore is running for President. (4) we're screwed. BTW, there's a bit of opportunism at the end, where they list what _we_ can do. One was "stop using _foreign_ oil" (or some such, my emphasis). What does it matter where the oil comes from, as far as global warming is concerned? They also like ethanol, which is somewhat controversial. -- Jim Devine / "In the Soviet Union, capitalism triumphed over communism.
