At Conference on the Risks to Earth, Few Are Optimistic

Surprised? This is a meeting of pessimists by definition.

Maybe what they really need are Prozac vending machines in the lobby.

I suppose it could be a bit amusing during the middle of the conference to run across the stage frantically pointing to the outside & screaming:

"It's happening now!!!"

In any other audience this would cause looks of bewilderment. But I suspect in this case these experts would simply assume their own personal vision of doom had suddenly come to pass and in perfect unision they would stand up and shout "I told you so!"

That's too funny!

Why would they be pessimists when Gloable Warming releases the 1000's of metric tons of CO'2 and the Methane in the now semi frozen tundra of the North Pole we are in deep do do !!!!!!!!
