OK. We got it. We need to have a blog and here it is. We'll try to post pictures, what's going on in our lives and maybe some political rantings as well. We hope you'll stop by often to see if there are any updates.....

Well, here they are! And I'm proud of both "insults." Left wing, nature lover, always been cRaZy!

And for the record, I can't believe people are still saying this. Or were still saying this, even in 2007.

From Wikipedia, "List of common misconceptions":
Contemporary global warming is driven by human activities, despite claims that it is not occurring, lacks strong scientific consensus, or that warming is mostly caused by non-human factors. No scientific body of national or international standing disagrees with the decades-old, near-complete scientific consensus on climate change. Global warming is primarily a result of the increase in atmospheric greenhouse-gas concentrations (like CO2 and methane) via the burning of fossil fuels as well as other human activities such as deforestation, with secondary climate change feedback mechanisms (such as the melting of the polar ice increasing the Earth's absorption of sunlight) assisting to perpetuate the change.

Is this the future you want for your children? I sure hope not.

So many sources too!
