Letters to the Editor

Peel another ozone layer

Many letters swirling around deny the concept, notion, or fact of "global warming." Many living in Tennessee are convinced Al Gore is a crackpot, a mad scientist, and invented the whole "climate change" theory to pocket millions, right after he invented the Internet.

I say we all go back to the good ole' days. Here's how:

Let's start using CFC's and blow open another hole in the ozone.

Let's allow corporations to dump their waste, chemicals, and trash into our lakes, streams, and rivers.

Let's dump our used motor oil and anti-freeze into the nearest storm drains. After all, they're just fish.

Let's petition Detroit to build those guzzling V-8's that get 8 mpg. And get the EPA to relax the emissions nonsense.

Let's stop this ludicrious and costly curbside "recycling" program and toss everything all out for the garbageman.

Let's stop the label, "Made from recycled material" from our plastic and paper bags.

Let's take down all those silly, whacky signs on buildings, campuses and hospitals, saying, "No Smoking." Those CEO's from all the major tobacco cigarette makers are probably correct in saying there is no link between using their product and lung cancer and emphasema.

Let's arrest those people going “Green” and charge them with a felony under the Patriot Act or Homeland Security. Because, as we all know, Mother Nature is very generous. She certainly does not need any help from mankind.

All is well on planet Earth. The sun rose today, didn't it?

Oh, and tell Erin Brockovich to return that settlement money from PG & E and write them a personal letter of apology.
