House Science Committee Democrats Call For NOAA Leadership's Removal
"House Science Committee Ranking Member Rep. Bart Gordon (D-TN) and ETS Subcommittee
Ranking Member Rep. David Wu (D-OR) are calling for the removal of NOAA Administrator Vice
Admiral Conrad C. Lautenbacher, Jr. (Ret.) and General John J. Kelly Jr., Deputy Undersecretary for
Oceans and Atmosphere. "If this isn't 'the fleecing of America,' I don't know what is," stated Rep.
Gordon. "If we're to have any hope of stopping this train wreck, NOAA must have new leadership
- the sooner, the better."

1. What worries me is that the NPOESS program may not survive.
Which is quite possibly the goal of the neocon leadership. In neocon epistemology, if we don't study bad weather, it never happened.

2. I just shelled-out $40 for a NOAA Weather Alert Radio
I hope this isn't going to render it useless.
