I was just listening to the radio and it was really pissing me off!
There was some morning shock jock idiot on the radio denying the existence of global warming. Claiming he read "scientific journals about it" although I highly doubt he's read anything more than a Maxim magazine. He was such an ass, a guy called in to disagree and instead of letting this guy make his point, he spent the entire time talking over him and calling him an idiot. This guy claimed that nothing will happen to the planet in such a short period of time because "the earth will do what it wants to do". At this point I wanted to scream at this guy and ask him about the big hole in the ozone that isn't there anymore and was there 30 years ago at the onset of the CFC ban. That and they were confusing the carbon emission problem we are having today with the hole in the ozone that was CFC related. I think if you are going to be a pompous ass on the radio, at least get your facts straight.

Oh yeah and then when someone mentioned Al Gore, he went off because "he wasn't a credible source" Arrrrrgh! Some people, I swear this is not good for my blood pressure at such an early hour!!!!
