I can't believe that anyone let this go by for close to 12 hours.

What did you eat to get the sharts?

Have you guys ever heard of the Cincinnati Creation Museum? ;):D

Anybody else read that nonsense about backpacks?

I thought backpacks were banned in the FOM.

Redirect, your honor?

I think it's time Delta had our own sub-forum, up above. Even SW has their very own, and considering how much I hate the kitten molestors, that just won't do.

We could elevate the L&G to the very top of the APC world, as the crown jewel of this site and, indeed, the internets.

Golf Carts in the Snow?

How did the Peachtree city folks make out? Any Golf cart Jams? Anyone get a chance to break out their tricked out FWD cart?

Scoop :)

Nuke all the unborn baby whales too while we're at it, and Bald Eagle tastes like chicken but if you use a nice wine sauce, it takes the gamey part away. Nothing we do here will have the tiniest effect compared to what the Chinese are doing to counter us. Period.

I do my part as well. I have 3 cars (one gas guzzling truck), burn about 20,000 gallons of diesel per year in John Deere's and Kenworths, and have been know around the county for clear cutting sage grouse habitat to plant alfalfa. Last year I upgraded to a more fuel efficient gas guzzling truck, started buying more low sulfur diesel*, and running DEF* in the Kenworths. Should see more ice in the polar regions by next year if my scientific data is accurate.

*I was required by new EPA regulations to help out in these two areas. Glad I could help out.

This is what I don't get. I mean if I have a million bucks and want to help the environment it would seem like those dollars could be better utilized in China or even Mexico than they could in D.C. But it's not political and has nothing to do about money.....it's all about the environment. :cool:

Wonder what the carbon footprint of the rumored 20 A-350's we are negotiating on will be? :)

Bull. I saw them in a movie where they came back to life and attacked people.

You're right, science is often disregarded--even by scientists when the science doesn't prove what they want it to prove. Climategate Whitewash
