I think it was Thomas Sowell who observed that Leftists have to exist in a state of continual dyspepsia. You create a crisis, and then you let no crisis go to waste.
It is sometimes amusing that anyone would think that humans have any control over nature. You would think after Sandy hit NY and NJ that idea would be deadin the water. Does anyone think that if we had limited our CO2 (the very air we breathe out, any difference would have been made in force of this hurricaine or the damage it did? This whole global warming…global cooling…climate change…climate is not weather crap is a scam to exhort money from the gullible populace through taxes. But we will always have the gullible to buy into con games. Common sense would tell you this is ridiculous but a heck of a lot of people have no common sense.

What They Are Saying About Me
"Someone with credibility is saying these things and trying to do something. Thank you."
"'Obtuse' is just about the nicest thing I could say about Jacobson. The problem with being too steeped in any profession is that you run the risk of no longer understanding the difference between reality and your profession's most obscure minutiae."
"I just wanted to thank you for writing such a great article on your reasons why you voted for John McCain. I wish everyone would have read that article."
"Jacobson is doing only what other McCain supporters are starting to do, produce these worthless pieces from some narrow perch in order to cover up their own racist bigotry"
"Cornell and the country need more educators like yourself to keep the flag of reason flying."
“I take it Jacobson teaches at the cow college part of Cornell, and not the elite section where Coulter attended.”
"Thank you for speaking out... and I hope you avoid repercussions in 'The People's Republic of Ithaca.'"

Franklin Tennessee, a great place! I know some Americans who live there.
Michael W. Smith for one!
Or…Franklin, North Carolina, with a fly-fisherman extraordinaire named Tom. Little Tennessee River and
the sounds of…Heaven.
“I am haunted by waters.”…Norman MacLean.
And don’t forget Winding Stair Gap or Standing Indian.

Rags…Or, a dear Texas friend calls: “Stirring up the s**t just to smell it.”
Well… we could talk about a Global Whining Tax.
Well, since I consider fishing to be something akin to a total waste of time, I’ll go on whining!
Whining about how the globalists use fear, threats and the exercise of control to get their way even though the real science does not support them.
Whine on!!!
“But then what would we talk about?”
I know some liberal arts professors that would be out of jobs
