Phophets of Doom

I hate doomsday prophecies. They are nothing but a source of power and control for the prophets.

And for those that use scientific data to back up your claims, you can find data to back up just about anything. Just ask Al Gore. Some people just make up the data to fill the gaps, scare people, and gain more power.

This whole debate to ban recreational bluefin tuna fishing has this same hypocritical taste.

From my perspective, as a middle aged, slighly overweight, white guy, I've see the environment drastically change in my own lifetime... for the better.    Never saw Deer, or Raccoons, or Turkeys, or even Hawks when I was growing up in Greater Boston forty or so years ago.  Now they are downright commonplace.  I've seen Bluefish come in, leave, come back, then leave again.

Call me naive, but, I'll bet the Bluefish come back.

And I don't need some self important, controlling environmentalist to file legislation to make that happen.

The ONLY reason deer/raccoons/hawks are commonplace is BECAUSE of Al Gore's prophecies! Get it right!
