Apparently so. Global Warming is now the Official Doctrine
of the "scientific" community, and woe to anyone who is
skeptical. You'll notice that, throughout history, the less
real evidence any given theory has to support it, the more
extreme its supporters are, whether the theory is religious,
economic, political, scientific, whatever; which reminds me
- did Paul Erlich ever admit he was full of crap, that he
LOST his famous bet with Julian Simon?

People like being scared. Fear sells. And gets grants.
