If so, where is the button or how do I access it? Thank you in advance for you help.

I absolutely agree with your four recommendations, Draginol. A fifth would be to have the government heavily subsidize research into nuclear fusion power plants. That is the long term holy grail for energy. And I too am frustrated that the majority of environmentalists do not see that we have to make hard choices. An energy crisis is looming. Dependence on oil is dangerous to our national security and economic vitality. The risk of nuclea

Thanks for educating me, Paul!

Paul, I totally agree with you. Defaulting on our national debt is indeed a potential option, but an absurd one. We have to reign in spending and this is why we need Kerry in office. G.W. Bush, unlike his father who had the courage to raise taxes when it was politically unpopular, doesn't have the gonads our country requires in this situation. His father fought in WWII and had guts. G.W. was a coward in Viet Nam and he is being a coward o

Some of the idea's users have posted on this are absurd. First and formost, the government can not default on their loans. Sandy2, I disagree your assertion that governments cannot default on their loans. Third world nations have done this before. It could happen to the US. Let me give you

Paul, I'm confused about the effects of CO2 you have listed. Can you provide links that CO2 levels are poisonous? Maybe you mean CO (carbon monoxide) which is indeed lethal. Perhaps you mean that we can't breathe 100% CO2, but really what you are saying is we need O2 to survive. I also don't understand how CO2 causes ozone damage. Can you provide a link for that point? I certainly could be ignorant, but I've never hea

(why is it that the ones least informed on these things or say the most disgusting vile things such as what Patrick say are always on the left?) That is not true. The left does not have a monopoly on ignorance. David Duke was ill-informed and said vile things. So did Hitler. Rush Limbaugh

Americans don't need to worry about their national debt. If it becomes too large and too draining, the US will simply declare it's not going to pay it back, and just take the repercussions of such a move. After all, there's nobody to stop them. OMG! That is so ignorant! Do you have any idea

Bill Joy (co-founder Sun Microsystems, Chief Scientist [until he recently quit the post]) "Our problem is no longer "going faster," getting to the future as fast as possible, but rather dealing with limits - limiting our own greed to avoid disaster in the environment and limiting what rogue individuals and state

I wouldn't think of shaking your "faith". I think in a system as complex as this Earth, with the small slice of data we have, it takes a lot of faith to believe that you can actually come to a conclusion. I think there are many conclusions one can come to when viewing the system. For example,

What people don't understand is that regardless of whether or not the amount of CO2 currently in the atmosphere is "acceptable," there is a limit at which catastrophic problems arise. No reasonable person disputes this. Regardless of whether the primary blame lies with deforestation, automobile emmissions, power plants or industry - we are exponentially increasing our production of CO2. So there is a limit, and we are accel

Fascinating stuff!
