Solar Stocks Continue to Roll

User 134327, you say that temps after 1998 have decreased for 10 years straight (except in the NYT), but I haven't seen or heard that from the likes of Scientific American, or Discovery Magazine, the Science Channel, or anyone else.

I'm not saying you're wrong -- I'm not a scientist -- but whether it is
mainstream scientific magazines like the two I mentioned above, or the mainstream media, the "end" of the global warming theory seems to me to be highly exaggerated.

One fellow at the grocery store I go to even told me that the polar ice caps had recovered most of their ice this year! While I keep an open mind, I've yet to see anyone say this besides this person, whether they're neighbors or scientific folks or the media (of any stripe or persuasion).

Still -- it would be nice if we could honestly say goodbye to a scenario in which our weather becomes less pleasant.

Personally, I have to agree that the two Democratic candidates have not dealt with the issue enough at all -- and the reason is that
the two major political parties have never really cared that much about any problem -- because the voting public don't insist on it. But I would still prefer a Democrat over a Republican. A Nader, a Green, or perhaps a Libertarian would be far preferable. But I don't sense any real movement in my fellow humans that would justify believing that such third party candidates have much of a chance at winning.
