Where to start? Oh I know, how about we start with the nut job green movement. I have been in an ongoing debate with my wife’s German cousin over green related stuff lately and am at the point of wanting to bang my head into a wall to make the crazy stop. His latest trick is to sensationalize everything he says and then back it down a notch when confronted. Hmmm, I’m guessing he learned that somewhere…oh, his fearless leader $500 massage man Gore. It is extremely frustrating when a family member has not only drunk the kool-aid, they are now gleefully mixing up new batches to serve to the feeble minded.
Speaking of green related crap, the piece written over the weekend for the Washington Post by Stan Cox titled “In the heat wave, the case against air conditioning” clogged the toilet. Mr. Cox actually argues in the article that the reason we need air conditioning is because we use air conditioning. Huh? Following this disjointed logic would lead one to ask why was air conditioning invented then in the first place? Oh I know, I know!!! Because the Earth has experienced fevers long before the con of global warming started so someone decided “what if we make a device that spits out cool air to make life more comfortable”? Presto: the air conditioner is born. Too simple for you? Doesn’t make sense since clearly air conditioning is causing the Earth to warm? Is this my German cousin reading this?
