Warning!!! Global Warming Causes Kitten Overpopulation!!!

Posted by Average Voter on Wednesday, July 30, 2008 7:16:51 PM
   After all these years of posting on global warming stories, I still get surprised every once in a while with a headline from a major newspaper.
 
 
Chicago Sun-Times
       Global warming may boost kitten population
By ALYSE KNORR | SCRIPPS HOWARD NEWS SERVICE
 
"The brain receives instructions to produce a hormone that basically initiates the heat cycle in a cat," said Nancy Peterson, feral cat program manager of the Humane Society of the United States, "and those instructions are affected by the length of day and usually the rising temperatures of spring."
   All of that may be true, and we just may have a population explosion of baby kittens and the humane society will have a kitten crises to deal with. But, all I want to know is...WHO CARES!!!

The DNC's Not So Green Denver

Posted by Average Voter on Wednesday, July 30, 2008 11:07:25 AM
   The big plan for the Democratic National Convention this year was to go green and offset all their carbon by using green power and buying carbon offsets. Well it mostly working with only a few glitch's. This was in the Rocky Mountain News just the other day.
 
The Wray wind turbine, a mile south of downtown Wray, is one of four projects that will benefit from carbon offsets purchased by DNC delegates. The turbine generates 20 percent of Wray's electric power.

But then, in today's paper, we find a different story.
   
   Face the State, a Web site that follows politics in Colorado, reported this week that a wind turbine in Wray has not been able to produce electricity since it was erected in February because of a faulty converter .
 
Whoops!
 
Then to add to their troubles and Denver's, we find that the DNC has been getting tax free gas from the state.
They quickly pulled the plug on that deal once it became known to the city council.
 
The government...got to watch'em all the time!
