Sarcasm alongside skepticism seems a good way to plow through today's "news" -- with quotes around it because so much is Push polls, Messaging, Nudging™ [ the Sunstein-Holder gambit ], and Manufacturing Consent™ -- and such sarcasm is yours and mine so to do.
More clearly, all those old "fossils" shouldn't be burned. Rather incarcerated for their scams and hoaxes. A little like one the latest -- carbon sequestration, which sounds so 'sciency' -- except our preferred sequestration would more likely include orange jumpsuits and such.
One the other hand, Uncle Adolf opted for the B-B-Q.... The Ceaușescus played bullet catch.... And Benito hung around a lamppost...
It makes me a little sad to think the "fossils" as we think of them might go the "clear conscience" Pol Pot route, and live into old [ older ] age... Or the unfaithful Fidel route and enter room temperature while some legacy lingers....
Happy landings.
Well I believe in an afterlife and my forecast is severely warm temps for these types and it won’t be CO2 causing it
