As Al Gore Always Says, Who Needs Trees and Spotted Owls?

A warmer planet is what we need most.  Then we won’t need heat in winter.

Al Gore didn’t say that?  Maybe it was somebody else.

I am not a fan of the Conservative Alternative (Al Gore’s own description of himself).  So far I have managed to avoid lynching by idolaters of a great movie maker but lousy scientist.  Just not taken with wingers but to each his own.

The Most Terrifying Halloween Story Ever Told

Imagine there was a beautiful planet.

Imagine it was inhabited by billions of sentient beings.

Imagine that all life was at risk.

Imagine that those most technologically advanced beings were, as T.S. Eliot once put it, too

distracted from distraction by distraction

to do anything about it.

Imagine those most technologically advanced beings were even putting the survival of their own species at risk.

Imagine time was running out.

Imagine those most technologically advanced beings were actually making things worse, not better.

Imagine.

The horror.
