Will 2008 really be the year that the masses buy into global warming hysteria?

I say the answer is "no".

Check out the odd argument here:

Michael Jordan changed the face of basketball fashion overnight when he showed up to the game wearing baggy shorts ... The green movement doesn't have a Michael Jordan.
...
When electronics show that sustainable is officially the new America cool, then the sprint will begin. The hesitation will end in a snap.

I feel it in my bones that 2008 is the year.

Convincing some kids to wear baggy shorts is one thing. Convincing actual adults to spend trillions of dollars on a trace atmospheric gas is quite another.
