Much like all your posts. So are you and the gimlet making progress on your plan to save us all from ourselves?

Does it really hurt so much to see AGW ridiculed? ;) Anyway, just because I criticise AGW does it mean that ALL my posts are ridiculous? Even those not remotely connected with AGW?

Nah. I think we only pick on the AGW ones. I've even agreed with some of your posts (god help me) but you come across like a preacher slapping us in the face with their holy book of choice... over and over and over again. It's like the old "Are we there yet?" thing from the kids in the back seat. It gets old really quick. That's why I argued with you on the one post I disagreed with. I made my point and now I move on.

Yeah, perhaps it does sound a bit preaching/ranting. DOnt mean to. Except to those that need it, like the true belilevers,

So you're accepting that if we don't share your points of view you will keep doing this until we claim you opened our eyes? nice!!
I want to die like my grandfather- asleep, not like the passengers in his car, screaming!
