>>>>Kevin, please do not align yourself with dubious arguments out of some sense of advocacy. Let's keep our facts straight here. There is not one shred of evidence that Saddam Hussein or anyone else in Iraq had anything to do with 9/11. Nor did they have weapons of mass destruction. The U.S. and the UN started looking for them four years ago and we haven't found a firecracker.

Yes, I did respond to the wrong post. Sorry.

Your response almost seems to boil down to "If we haven't killed the planet yet, all is well." To me the issue is whether we are having a negative impact on the earth with man-made emissions. There doesn't seem to be much doubt remaining in the scientific community that we are.
