If an honest man is wrong, after demonstrating that
he is wrong, he either stops being wrong or he stops being honest. by Anon

An Australian colleague sent
me a YouTube of my NIPCC talk at the March NY Conference. He improved it

Myron Ebell: Full-page ad on page A11 of
today’s New York Times by NRDC in support of Lieberman-Warner. The large
headline states: THE
ECONOMIC STIMULUS PLAN THAT CAN SAVE THE WORLD. The sub-headline is even
more outrageously false: HOW
AMERICA GETS RICHER BY REDUCING GLOBAL WARMING. It would be accurate if
it said, how some Americans get richer by reducing global warming.
William Pizer, an economist
at Resources for the Future and a lead author on the most recent report from
the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, said at a symposium
earlier this week here in Washington: "As an economist, I am skeptical
that [dealing with climate change] is going to make money. You'll have new
industries, but they'll be doing what old industries did but a higher net
cost.... You'll be depleting other industries."
