One of Al Gore's inventions unfortunately bit him in the caboose yesterday. The former Vice President announced at the Copenhagen climate summit yesterday that there is a high probability that all arctic ice could be gone within 5-7 years. news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091214/ap_on_sc/climate_gore Within hours, though, Al's earlier invention - the Net - was abuzz with a statement from the scientist that Mr. Gore purportedly relied on that disavowed Gore's sweeping pronouncement:
“It’s unclear to me how this figure was arrived at,” Dr Maslowski said. “I would never try to estimate likelihood at anything as exact as this.” www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/environment/copenhagen/article6956783.ece
I for one am glad that Al invented something that can correct the record so quickly when ex-politicians try to foist baloney on an unsuspecting public!
