We didn't wait for someone else to storm the beaches at Normandy
And we can't wait for someone else to solve the global climate
The Nazi conquest of Europe...Global Warming. This is what I'd call a Parallelism FAIL. And an insulting one at that.
I don't have a problem with recycling, alternate energy and conserving fuel, but I do have a problem with someone comparing that to one of the most tragic and heroic military actions in recent history, especially for a still scientifically (if not politically) contested theory. Have we so soon forgotten what the Battle of Normandy was about?
Incidentally, the sun is getting warmer, so we're facing system, not global, warming.
Should we bomb the sun into submission?

Wow, I hadn't seen that. Your criticism is spot-on. Thanks!
I completely agree with your point, K, but that last line... "Should we bomb the sun into submission?" just begs to be a writing prompt!
Go for it, Glenn!
Go for it, Glenn!
