Reply #4: I learned a new term today. Thanks!

From a brief skimming of the definition I'd have to say that I am a TechnoGaianist as well because I,too, believe that an intelligent application of science can and will provide the answers and the solutions to our problems. Burning coal is, by the way, NOT in my definition of science (or at least sure as hell not an intelligent application of science).

:hi::woohoo:

The only question is, will we elect leaders who understand science or ones who think the Universe was made in 6 days. The latter spells our certain doom as no scientific or technological advance can combat the willfully ignorant.
