A Rebranding for Global Warming? - NYTimes.com

Another Inconvenient Astronaut: General Stafford
What many may not know about General Stafford is that he stands as a global warming skeptic. General Stafford tells me he agrees wholeheartedly with NASA Astronaut/Geologist Jack Schmitt who flew on the Apollo 17 mission, who has said, "The ‘global warming scare’ is being used as a political tool to increase government control over American lives, incomes and decision making. It has no place in the Society's activities.”

The rich irony of course, is that Al Gore has frequently compared global warming skeptics to those that deny the moon landing. As it turns out, those who have been to the moon and back are some of the staunchest critics of such alarmism.
