In response to Garth Turner’s Blog

March 2008   Re: Garth Turner’s blog supporting Stephane Dion’s ouster of Joe Comuzzi: Although I can certainly respect people like Joe, Garth and John Nunziata who stand up for what they believe in, regardless of the consequences, I can’t help but take Garth’s support with a grain of salt.

Is the global warming hysteria becoming too much?

March 2007 Am I the only one who is getting sick of hearing all the contradictory information about the cause of global warming? I don’t deny that global warming is a reality, but whether it is a result of man-made influences or a natural phenomenon is the real question.
