#12, I have a problem with laws being used beyond their intention, like the Patriot Act against a strip club, or hate crimes laws every time the two are of different race, just so the prosecutor can have an easier time of things.

Try Brunner’s “The Sheep Look Up” (and 1984). The handwriting has been on the wall forever!

“If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem.”

To be honest, I’m a bit passive, but the situation we face is sooooo bad I admire the in your face efforts of Greenpeace. They’re way better than I am, wedded to my comforts at the expense of the future as I am.

You go, Greenpeace! (Yes, I donate, probably not enough. They do it “so I don’t have to” even though I know things are bad enough that every live body on earth should be fighting to the point of having to pry our dead cold fingers from pointing towards reality and truth.)

And since we are off subject…

Wow, I’m still wondering about the “corrupt” profit distribution you received as a shareholder of Westmill Solar…

Why Wow? Why?

@14 – Not sure what this has to do with Hardley pretending to know the “truth” about Resolute, but coming from you, I’m not surprised….

Question though, about your link and this statement:

“Nearly nine in 10 people say they are ready to make changes to their standard of living if it would prevent future climate catastrophe”

What’s stopping them?

“In other words, you don’t know what the truth is, but you act like you do.”

It’s very easy to determine the facts. Simply look at whatever you support in this story: the facts are the opposite of your statements.

You’re an increasingly marginalised minority, betty:

Maybe you ought to admit it’s all faith based denial so you can get a religious exception.

Hardley – “But one just has to go the boreal forests themselves to see what the truth is.. And let’s say that it doesn’t remotely support the company. That should be hardly surprising,”

In other words, you don’t know what the truth is, but you act like you do.

Hardley surprising.

Mike – “Betula, RICO was intended to go after mafia. Greenpeace has nothing to do with racketeering”

Mike’s an attorney for Greenpeace now…

Keep up the good work Mike, we’re counting on you!
