Billy, our boy, has a degree in "Journalism" which tells you EVERYTHING you need to know regarding his scientific credentials. Like many tree hugging feel good simpletons he spouts claptrap with NO understanding of the science, he gets his "Straight Dope" Info from the likes of Al Gore who knows even less than Bill does himself. SAD SAD SAD to say the least but Billy, like many lefties, loves to feel SAD and then rage at the world for his personal lack and small mindedness. His rage makes him feel good that he is standing up for the little guy against his self created monsters (like big oil). Bill, get a life and do something productive, create a product, produce anything of real value and then we will begin to listen. I am sad for you, but even more so for your small little band of followers who are so lost that they look up to such a loser for a leader.
