K, watching it now... I'll be right back. I'm back... My thoughts? I like this guys style... He presents his information in an interesting way. "This scenerio makes Al Gore look like a sissy pollyana with no guts", LOL! I choose lottery ticket A! His closing statment reminds me of Clint Eastwood's "Do you Feel L-ucky?"
Hey, trillian -thank you for sharing this (while I'm not sure it holds much substance, I'll play with it) IP: Logged |

Very powerful and well presented video, trillian. Thank you for posting this!!!I choose plan A and in fact I chose that along time ago. What do we have to lose if we don't do anything? A LOT!!!! Actually the only thing we stand to lose at all if we believe in global climate change is that we will be wrong. And I would be the first in that case to add my . We are wasting billions upon billons of dollars a year on war in the middle east and fighting terrorism and ignoring the real terror we face. We are in a deep recession now and headed for a depression anyway and our government is trillions of dollars in debt. So what would it hurt to waste billions of more dollars if it turned out we are wrong about global climate change? As for the depression it might cause, well, we are going to have that anyway. All things are pointing to that right now. There is too much at stake for our future and the future of our children and grandchildren not to go for plan A. We must avoid the end consequences of plan B. I am going to do my part, which as he stated, is easy, and pass this video onto everyone I know. Thanks again, trillian. This may be the most important You Tube video anyone has ever posted here at LL. I like that guy too!!! He is good. He held my interest all the way through that video by the way he presented it.

We only buy non gas hog vehicles. If it does not get at least 39mpg. We are not interested. If we need a truck or van we rent it for those times rather than waste gas for every day. We wish we could afford hydro or geo thermal or solar for our home though. But we keep it at 65 in cold weather and 55 at night or when not home. Yeah we look funny wearing hats and coats inside but it works. One can wear hats and socks and gloves to bed. My grandparents did and I did the same growing up. And turn off lights not needed. And use fluorescent bulbs.------------------ "Heaven doesn't want me and Hell is afraid I'll take over and start a rehab for the damned!" ~Judgement Must Be Balanced With Compassion~ ~Do Not Seek Wealth From The Suffering, Or The Dire Needs Of Others~ ~Assumption Is The Bane Of Understanding~ ~ if you keep doing what you did, you'll keep getting what you got.~ Everything changes.

Nice! Somebody get Jwhop. Of course this argument has always been about whether we want to be safe, or risk being sorry. None the less, it was a good presentation.(I almost always get bored of videos people post here within 30-45 seconds, so it's amazing that I watched until his closing remarks.) IP: Logged |

Well I still like Al Gore. Gore, U.N. climate panel win Nobel Peace Prize Warming is ‘greatest challenge’ ever, he says, earning praise and criticism http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21262661/ OSLO, Norway - Al Gore and the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change won the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize Friday, and the former vice president used the attention to warn that global warming is "the greatest challenge we've ever faced." World leaders, President Bush among them, congratulated the winners, while skeptics of man's contribution to warming criticized the choice of Gore. Gore in a statement said he was " deeply honored ... We face a true planetary emergency. The climate crisis is not a political issue, it is a moral and spiritual challenge to all of humanity." "It is the most dangerous challenge we've ever faced, but it is also the greatest opportunity we have had to make changes," he later said at a brief news conference in Palo Alto, Calif. Gore did not take any questions. As he walked away a reporter asked if he would run for president, but Gore did not respond. Gore’s film "An Inconvenient Truth," a documentary on global warming, won an Academy Award this year. He had been widely expected to win the peace prize. "His strong commitment, reflected in political activity, lectures, films and books, has strengthened the struggle against climate change," the Nobel citation said. "He is probably the single individual who has done most to create greater worldwide understanding of the measures that need to be adopted." It cited Gore's awareness at an early stage "of the climatic challenges the world is facing." For more see link. And concerning Linda Goodman's Earth Heart Gold mystery....
