Now wait a minute, why is there nothing to fear from global warming? That’s a silly question, of course serious global warming would have some terrible consequences. The question is can we as humans to anything to control the earth’s climate? And I say not much, and what little we might be able to do isn’t worth the expense. Better spent adapting to a changing world.

I'm not sure who or what you're responding to here. The poll question was whether Global-Warming fears are overblown, not whether they were unfounded or non-existent.

But as long as we're getting subjective, I'd have to say that I fear the consequences of global-cooling more than those of global-warming.
