John Lott's Website: Charlton Heston on Global Warming

You can listen to him here. The discussion is from Michael Crichton's book, "State of Fear."

Bob said...: Well, Heston was a nice guy and all, and I'm a 2nd Amendment type, but, listened to carefully, that's insane.; 4/08/2008 12:54 PM
John Lott said...: I guess that I don't find the discussion from Crichton's book insane. Possibly you can explain why you think that it is wrong, let alone insane.; 4/08/2008 3:05 PM
Bob said...: Well, good grief. If all the nuclear bombs go off, and the earth is a radioactive oven for 100,000 years, all is well! The earth itself survives! And no ozone--well, it aids evolution! Not that the whole process would ever bring us back again, the only organism that's had a hint of something other than tooth and claw, but not to worry, the earth survives! Until the sun goes red giant, anyways...what me worry.; 4/08/2008 9:45 PM
Bob said...: Put another way, most people couldn't contemplate 100,000 years of a radioactive oven, and the end of the human race, with such equanimity as Heston seems to do.; 4/08/2008 10:01 PM
