  • a no-brainer
    a no-brainer It's not just all the climate change denialists that are coming out of the woodwork, grasping at every straw to prove their point; nor the greenalists who don't believe that anyone can question their proclamations; nor the rest of us in the middle, who find it hard to be a reactionary for either side (how ludicrous to have SIDES in the face of such an important problem), worried that we will be laughed at if proved wrong; nor the detracting and pointless argument about whether this is man-made or not; nor the preposterous machinations that the politicians at the Copenhagen…
