Opinions you are not allowed to hold

Shall we next start firing climatologists who refuse to agree that climate change is man-made, or who express the opinion that perhaps it is not man-made, either publicly or privately?

Hey Bill, just be glad you don't live in Italy. Did you catch this one about the Italian seizmologists who used the best science currently available to determine that the chance of a serious quake happening right away in the town of L'Aquila was quite small. But, even low probability events can occurr. A major quake did occurr, people died, and the scientists were convicted of manslaughter ...for being honestly mistaken!!!

Yes, I did. I was kind of wondering if we can put the fear-monger climatologists in prison if the whole 'six foot rise' in sea levels doesn't occur in the predicted time.

Sure, if it means putting the lobbyist and politicians taking thier support in jail when climate change is "proven."
