I’ve just watched Al Gore’s Inconvenient Truth. Global Warming has not, however, knocked on my front door just yet. Al’s hypothesis is that this global warming process can somehow be turned around, or at least be brought under the semblance of some sort of control by the humans. Well, theoretically, if you could mobilize the masses, I suppose. It’s that mobilizing of the masses bit that I suspect is just a little extraordinarily hypothetical. Like the polar bear without a glacier to stand on, we might find ourselves walking around on a piece of toast looking for a shade tree, and there isn’t going to be one. Today is today, and millions of people around the world have by now seen this movie, and down in the neighborhood, standing on the corner, we’re all waiting for the ice cream man.
