Unfortunately, if they "are" right, we be in a non-reversable world of poop!
I suppose millions of years ago, the numerous volcanos did all the polluting.
There's no end to it..Get underway today, just incase there's no tomorrow ;-)

In a suburb of Dallas called Farmers branch, the voters recently passed an ordinence that requires landlords to recieve documentation that the prospective resident is a US Citizen, DL, SSN, Birth cert.

Before the vote, a group was formed that did not want the law to pass. The name of this group is "Let the voters decide"


The law passed with 68% of the vote FOR the law, and 32% against.

You know where I'm going with this. People in Farmers Branch voted by a 2 to 1 margin to pass this law.

Monday afternoon, the group known as "let the voters decide" went to court with the ACLU to get an injunction to stop the law from going into effect.

The unelected federal judge granted the temp. injunction.
I guess "let the voters decide"... works only if it goes your way, if not, go to court.

It takes a minute to realise why Paul posted the above info in the Global Warming thread. After that minute though, you will perhaps have seen into the same crystal ball he has, and have the prescience to see how the GW debate is likely doomed to play out. kudos.
