Take a look at the AIP link that I sent 
(http://www.aip.org/history/climate/). It gives a very
good history of the scientific debate.

I am very depressed about out nation's support of science and scientific

took a devastating cut in the budget passed by Congress this week, which 
will likely
kill any chances for new initiatives and may be the beginning of the 
end. I may be
a little touchy right now.
