Grin... why how convenient for those wishing to discount the possibility that these
folks are correct.

Er...  I think you should review your scientific method. No insult intended. Regardless
of the ability to affirm or disaffirm, it should be obvious to even the most casual
observers that you can only pump so much exhaust into the air, so many waste chemicals
into the sewers, build so many garbage dumps, cut down so many forests, fish so many
fish..... before things start to go bad....

The basic problem boils down to whether or not a thinking human being is willing to
admit or not that the species is capable of impacting our environment to a significant
degree.....be that positively or negatively. I personally dont have any problem seeing
that to be true, and personally view the positions of  "You cant prove anything" or
"this is all a bunch of political nonsense" as irrelavant balderdash..

I suppose I can understand how you arrive at this conclusion given your obvious
dedication to sound research and scientific method.... grin...
