Re: [Goanet] GLOBAL WARMING: A STARK REALITY

I am all about saving the planet for future generations. But I think some of us 
have gotten our arguments on climate change way out of line. Please have your 
friend read this. I'd like to see his response:

If your pal responds, please publish it on GoaNet.

Thanks,
