You win one free Methane Offset, good for a year's worth of farting. Proudly display in places like elevators, crowded buses, etc., and people will know your farts are OK, because you are "Methane Neutral".

Yippie! What do I get? :)
Pen name for a French philosopher. He got into a lot of trouble by writing about freedom and the abuses of nobility and organized religion of the time. His home straddled the French and Swiss borders, so he joked that he stayed on the Swiss side when his writings angered the Catholics (France), and on the French side when his writings angered the Protestants (Switzerland).
Thus a reason that this whole global warming thing pisses me off so much. This is about science. Faith should have no role in it just as politics shouldn't.
re: The Goreacle
I can't claim credit for originating the expression -- it was actually some Gore-bots in Canada who came up with it, so far as I know....... they love him and thought pretending to be a Gore cult was tongue-in-cheek fun, but they revealed more than they intended about the fanaticism of the enviro-whackos.
Hey, I already gave you a real cool link!
It was not Voltaire. It was Robespierre, during the French Revolution. He was a French lawyer, no less.
I prefer cash. What, this wasn't a game show?
Oh well, that's what I found in my quotation source, which is the link in #17. You may be right. It may be wrong. It happens I guess.
