8. Telling a person about science who is clearly clueless on the topic would be useless.
Tell us about how solar energy saved the United States in the last 8 years that you've been ignoring BP because Amory Lovins, anti-nuke, works for many dangerous fossil fuel companies.

Of course, if one didn't hate numbers because they are completely over one's tiny little head, we could refer to them to decide if the "solar will save us" crowd is delusional or not.

From a purely moral standpoint - and I am fairly aware how difficult it is to describe ethical and moral positions to those who worship the dangerous fossil fuel executive officer for greenwashing via complacency, Amory Lovins - one might ask if we could hold the irresponsible twits who kept arguing that we should bet all the living tissue on the planet on the "solar will save us" chip.

But, as usual, besides being ignorant of science and technology, this set is ignorant and indifferent to responsibility, which is why one can tell that none of them have ever had a job more serious than cashing checks on the trust fund.

Have a nice "Drill! Baby! Drill! because I live in Maine and would have to not log on my computer if I couldn't dump gas waste in the atmosphere.
