PurpleTitan, that does bug me.
DrGoogle, when did I say I was in favor of a carbon tax?
And you are confused.
busdriver11, it is fracking that is causing earthquakes.
Not you, did I say you? You are confused. From what I’ve read a few years back on wsj. There was almost a debate on whether or to pass the carbon tax to combat climate change and the investment people were ready to take advantage and make money.
Yes I’m always confused. But what I won’t be confused is a guy who pretends to be a nice guy until you disagree with him, politically of course.
OK…good…
Who lives in Tiburon?
“It is fracking that is causing earthquakes”
Dang it, here I thought it was cows passing gas!
@greenwitch, the acidicification of the oceans (due to global warming) will hammer mollusks and other creatures made of calcium carbonate.
Actually, it’s already starting to. One reason why many corals are dying.
Honestly, I think the more people have the more the earth resources are taxing and then animals and people start to die off and we start all over again like the Noah’s Ark.
@PurpleTitan , absolutely!
All the tiny larval-stage sea life will be adversely affected by ocean acidification and that will have a ripple effect through the marine food chain.
@DrGoogle I won’t be starting over like Noah’s Ark. I plan to be raptured before it comes to that. 8-}
I won’t be here either but I just think how ridiculous some country is bursting at the seems and their people are still producing and growing.

No they didn’t. Both storms took a week to form, which I think is pretty normal.
This is how alarmists damage their credibility with deniers: use of hyperbole.
“No they didn’t. Both storms took a week to form, which I think is pretty normal.”
Maybe she just turned on the tv the night prior? I remember the president begging people to leave, days prior to Katrina. I remember the talk of tens of thousands being potentially killed. Katrina, at least, was a long time coming.

Can you take some friend with you, to the rapture? I’ll bring the wine.
Busdriver11, I think you are the one drinking $950 bottles of wine. 
I’m pretty sure most of the calories we consume is in the form of grains, and also we feed grain to livestock. So even if we could survive without directly consuming grain, that would also mean that we have no meat and no dairy anymore either.
That would be, $9.50 bottles of wine. You can get some great stuff in Wa for less than ten bucks.
Grass fed meat is what I eat. No grain fed cow.
Have you been to a restaurant and had something made with beef there?
And have you ever eaten chicken, eggs, milk (or anything made of milk), lamb, pork, or farm raised fish?
Do you have any clothes made of wool or leather?
Yeah… That original $950 remark might have been a typo. Maybe it was meant to be $9.50. But if you want to spend $950 a bottle, I don’t care. 
Yes, the president and the mayor urge everyone to leave New Orleans. Unfortunately the disaster plan which was headed up by a firm that received the commission based on cronyism rather than competence neglected to plan how that many poor, sick, elderly and young people would evacuate independently without access to transportation or housing resources. If everyone you know has lived in NOLA for generations you don’t have family to go to at some conveniently safe location or the means to get there.
Yes, the storm formed in weeks but it had come and gone before the disaster of the breached levees. Most people were NOT killed by the storm they were killed by the flooding that resulted from inadequately designed and constructed levees.
You can raise chicken without grain. Trust me they call them organic chicken. My dad had a pig when I was younger.
Lamb eats grass if I recall in England. I don’t eat farmed fish ever. So yes most stuff can be raised without grain.
