Someone cast Wolven Winter on New Orleans!

If he wants to use the stuff linked by Felix, he can then do the legwork himself and link the sources directly. It's not my job to do his arguing for him and spend hours sifting through crap in the hopes of maybe finding something worthwhile.

If we want to play that game, I can do it just as well as anyone else, but I'd rather not as it offends my sense of personal integrity. Licker would also do better by linking things directly rather than using Felix's site as some sort of link hub, because that way they do not become immediately associated with an effort to misrepresent things.

No argument there. It's the same annoyance I had with you over Dutch earlier. Yes, licker was in a hurry, but it's still not a very useful set of links, and anyway it would have been better to link to the worthwhile ones directly. It still doesn't change the fact that Mr. Felix is irrelevant.

I can't disagree with any of that.

Point. I concede that I should have done a summary of the stuff contained on Dutch's page.

Just for knowledge:

"President-elect Barack Obama has named Harvard physicist John Holdren and marine biologist Jane Lubchenco to top science posts.

Obama made the announcement Saturday in his weekend radio address. Holdren will become Obama's top science adviser as director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy; Lubchenco will lead the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Both advocate a forceful government response to global warming.

Holdren also will direct the president's Council of Advisers on Science and Technology. Joining him as co-chairs will be Nobel Prize-winning scientist Harold Varmus and Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor Eric Lander, a specialist in human genome research."
