Daniel: if you think Americans are accelerating global warming by hundreds of thousands of years, show us the scientific literature. I would be glad to learn more about it. |

In my crazy little mind I think threads like this can actually draw us closer together as a "card family". It takes differing views to make the world go around. I think we are all to blame for most stuff. This thread will not make it past this evening and I will shut it down in the morning, most likely. I see no harm in a thread like this every great once in a while. I don't see anyone in the thread just passing by, that I don't know of. No one has to open this thread if they don't want to. I think it's interesting to see how my card buddies think. So this is that one thread you can speak your mind about whatever you want to, as long as it's not personal, immature, attacks....It's everyone's right to disagree with each other..just keep it clean...and as courteous as possible.......best regards |

Industry has the ability to cut down the carbon dioxide that is polluting the atmosphere and destroying the protective ozone layer, but it is a very expensive proposition. Their lobbyists will have no part of it. Likewise, Americans consume way too much gasoline, and car emissions are also destroying the atmosphere. But all we do is keep using up precious oil, oil that has to be purchased from nations that support terrorism. It's a vicious cycle and we may never get out of it. |

Daniel: I really do not want to continue this line of discussion, as it is you who are bringing nationalities into this, and frankly, arguing with yourself. But I will point out that, among other statements on this board, you have described yourself as follows: "As an ozzie boy who has lived abroad in countries other than the US of A, and travelled reasonably extensively in life, you yanks just mystify me." |

Joe B.- You learn something every day. If that story is not apochryphal about the archers, it is a great tale. |

Barry, you are correct. To substantially reduce industrial carbon dioxide emissions would have an enormous cost impact to the ecomomy. The same is true for automotive emissions. |

Every big city in the country, if not the world, is hopelessly overcrowded with traffic. And nearly every big city has this noxious cloud of C02 hanging over it; it's even visible in the hot weather. The damage it does is simply awful, but I don't believe a single one takes traffic congestion seriously. And that doesn't even take into account the wasted man hours sitting in one spot and barely moving, something that makes me nuts. All these things are contributing factors, but nothing is done about it. |

Its political, Barry. You got to get Govt employees to do their job. There is typically no good reason why traffic lights should be improperly timed. |

Has anyone been to Sin City? Being a history buff I uncovered that Vegas has the longest traffic lights waits in the U.S., you could just imagine the extreme rage. |

The only this I can say is "ICE-AGE"! An neural phenomena what happens every 50,000 years, like clock work. |

We had a mini Ice Age that lasted from 1300-1880's. The potato famine in Ireland was just 1 result. The reason we drink beer insted of wine was another cause. It was too cold to grow grapes in Northern Europe, so they made beer instead. Our Northern Europian ancestors migrated to America and continued the tradition. Thank the mini Ice Age for the 6 pack in your fridge. |

Not meaning to be morbid, but I wonder how we'd know if a regular contributor here died. I'm thinking of the occasional post that is kind of an APB for someone - people looking for that person, etc. Answers come back about vacations, illnesses, etc, that have put someone out of contact temporarily. But if someone just kind of stops contributing outright, or dead-ends on a BST deal, do we ever consider that they may have died? |

John: Time is generally not a good source on anything, but I had read the article nontheless. This National Academies summary is a better starting point: http://dels.nas.edu/basc/Climate-HIGH.pdf |

The internet was invented in 1968-ish. It was known as Arpanet back then, and used mainly by University Scientific professor types to gossip and compare notes. |

Well I know this was not a thread that suited everyone's tastes for sure, but before Leon shuts it, thanks to everyone for listening to my raves and rants. There was actually some pretty interesting stuff here. I'm sure the board will be back to normal today with lots of posts about vintage cards. |

I really don't know why they have to come to an end but they do. Maybe I will take a vote about one of these a month or something....gotta think about that. First and foremost this is vintage baseball card chatboard.....I do think it was fun seeing some off topic thoughts.....best regards |
