CO2 and evolution (Introduction)
when by your own logic--we aren't even in a new paradigm?

The Earth is not immediately doomed, if ever. I'm for development of green approaches, just not at breakneck speed. Ethanol in gas is just one example of complete stupidity, but giving a show of 'concern'. Al Gore and climate panic are just another example of current environmentalism. And what happened to the last major panic, acid rain? It is still raining, and we in Texas welcome it.-I joke all the time about how this part of the country would turn subtropical; hardly misfortune.-But the ethanol thing rankles me a bit: CORN-produced ethanol is a bad path--the prices of food were a result of this. However, that new "artificial life" just created this year is precisely the kind of thing that can allow mass-production of ethanol as soon as we transfer in the genes from termites that allow them to eat cellulose. From watching the research from IA State, maybe 10 years.

\"Why is it, Master, that ascetics fight with ascetics?\"
\"It is, brahmin, because of attachment to views, adherence to views, fixation on views, addiction to views, obsession with views, holding firmly to views that ascetics fight with ascetics.\"
