[Vwdiesel] How cold is it?

[brian gochnauer]

Some trivial FACTS.
Wikipedia excerpt "the density of carbon dioxide is around 1.98 kg/m3, about
1.5 times that of air <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth%27s_atmosphere>."
yet Gore says it is in the upper atmosphere.
When gore made that movie "An Inconvenient Truth", he was worth 2 million,
now he's worth over 100 million.
Al Gore is part of venture capitol firm that invested 76 million in a
California company last year, this year the company won a 560 million or
$3.4 billion in government grants.

Which means Mr. Gore is poised to become the world's first "carbon
billionaire," profiteering from government policies he supports that would
direct billions of dollars to the business ventures he has invested in.
