Chris,
It was just an off the cuff response - usenet tends to be like that.
If you want a carefully reasoned
response and a call for criteria for action then say so. Possum,
Julian, etc are not shallow
ignorant people - Next time ask for ideas about we can do to make a
difference.

Jorge Booosh has never had a good intention. He is the puppet of the
New World Order which clearly favors large agribusiness over the small
farmer. The deaths of millions means nothing to these people.
The use of corn for bio fuel is insane. However agricultural waste
products such as sugar cane husks seems plausible.
Why arent we building more wind generators as they can produce
electricity at 3 to 4 cents per KWH? Seems to be the best technology
at the present time.
