1. One of the most frightening things I've seen...

folks we have only a few years to correct the sins we've perpetrated on this planet...and even that may be too late. Probably Al Gore was our last good chance to turn things around, and the Republicans stole the election from him.

5. Yep, frightening is the word
It's a battle of gases vs particles. You either get fried or choke to death - or both, the way things are going.
