"Now, if and WHEN I get around to bothering with “Judgment Day,” believe Me, planet earth will be the very first to know. You humans will know about it, with certainty. You won’t have to speculate, not even a teeny tiny bit."

"After all this effort, I am left with two simple sentences for policymakers," Sam Gardiner said of his ( Read more... )

Dr. Lovelock on the end of the world as we know it.

Not too many today; have actually been working.

This is an excellent article detailing all the crimes George Bush should be impeached for.
