Hello Joe,

On Sunday January 11 2009 06:53, you wrote to me:

I am sorry if I missed that.

Sure. all we have to do is catch all the CO2 we have burned, turn it into coal
and oil again and put it back into the gorund. Or we just wait another 5
billion years and nature will undo wnat we did in a hundred years.

 JB> If you don't want to read what I spent a lot of time typing to you,

I should have written:

So to avoid paying taxes you stick your head in the sand and say global warming
becuase of CO2 emission is a haox....

 JB> then don't reply with a nonsensical offensive statement.

Sorry if you find that offensive, but it is as I see it. You put your head in
the sand to protect your selfish interest.

 JB> Are you proving Al Gore to be right?

Al Gore was not the first to come up with the relation bewteen CO2 emission and
global warming. Already 30 years ago I was a member of a group of scientists
who concerned themselves with these matters.


And sorry if I did not read all of your story. Whan I was a student, some 40+
years ago, I enjoyed arguing with people who believed the earth is flat, people
who believed they could make a perpetuum mobile or people who thought Einstein
was wrong and it is possible to go faster than light.

Now that I am older and my body keeps reminding me that life is finite, I have
lost interest. I do not want to spent any more time on what I consider lost
cases.

Add to that people claiming the sun is the cause and the sole cause of global
warming. Sorry Joe, it is a hoax, I have better things to do than prove the
earth is not flat.


Cheers, Michiel
