If Only Gay Sex Caused Global Warming
Interesting article that ran last year.
If you haven’t yet, check out Gilbert’s book Stumbling on Happiness.
It’s a damn good read that involves psychology, philosophy, economics, and humor without any ‘self-help’ fluff.

how about having none of both.
Great article, very informative. No, wait - what’s that other word…?
Oh, yeah - “Hilarious”, that’s what I meant. I was especially impressed with the author’s ability to tell us that the people who are not up in arms about global warming are simply not as highly evolved as those who are.
Me think something call “elitism”, but me no have right words.

NO ONE seems to care about the upcoming attack on the World Trade Center site. Why? Because it won’t involve villains with box cutters. Instead, it will involve melting ice sheets that swell the oceans and turn that particular block of lower Manhattan into an aquarium.
I’ve got an interesting article that ran last year too:
[i]The new Antarctic measurements, using data from two NASA satellites called the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE), found that the amount of water pouring annually from the ice sheet into the ocean – equivalent to the amount of water the United States uses in three months – is causing global sea level to rise by 0.4 millimeters a year. The continent holds 90 percent of the world’s ice, and the disappearance of even its smaller West Antarctic ice sheet could raise worldwide sea levels by an estimated 20 feet.
“The ice sheet is losing mass at a significant rate,” said Isabella Velicogna, the study’s lead author and a research scientist at Colorado University at Boulder’s Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences. “It’s a good indicator of how the climate is changing. It tells us we have to pay attention.”
Richard Alley, a Pennsylvania State University glaciologist who has studied the Antarctic ice sheet but was not involved in the new research, said more research is needed to determine if the shrinkage is a long-term trend, because the new report is based on just three years of data. “One person’s trend is another person’s fluctuation,” he said.
But Alley called the study significant and “a bit surprising” because a major international scientific panel predicted five years ago that the Antarctic ice sheet would gain mass this century as higher temperatures led to increased snowfall.[/i]
Moreover, the Antarctic is gaining ice mass.
What about lesbian sex? Where does that fit in?
