Yes, I remember what you geniuses were saying back then about global warming: http://tinyurl.com/3xfoak Didn't quite work out as you predicted, did it? It's like when a witness who has changed his testimony appears in court and is inevitably asked under cross examination: we know you're a liar because you've already been proven to be one; the question is, were you lying then or are you lying now? So back in the '70s it was an ice age that we were supposed to be in the middle of by the time the year 2008 rolled by. Gosh, that didn't happen. So the fear-mongers had to come up with a new strategy...so they changed their minds and decided that it would be the OPPOSITE that would happen: we'd all roast under increased warmth! So tell me: were you right back in the '70s? Or are you right now? > What most people who have only been > following this for the last decade or less do not realize is that Big > Oil, et al. have been doing this seeding the ground with > disinformation since long before manmade climate change became a > front page or even "newsworthy" topic.
