26. Visit Florida before the polar ice caps melt.
27. Visit Nevada before it becomes radioactive.
28. Visit Alaska before "The Big Spill".
29. Visit Massachusetts while it is still a State.

all of those sound good excpet the polar ice caps. when and if the ice caps melt the water level will be the same if not lower because those ice caps are displacing water themselves right now. i know this is an asshole/geek thing to say but I hear way too many people talking about this worrying about it. I'd worry more about that "Big Spill" in Alaska you're talking about, those oil spills are fucking us up bad.

I plan on stockpiling weapons... Either that or flooring it to Canada.

sbr, you are assuming that the polar caps are at sealevel (plus the different of volume in the ice).

Oh you can fucking walk through Yosemite, that's cool, but jump of a goddamned cliff and your a bad guy. You facsist pig.

you people make me sick

Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Fuhrer!

not true. most of the ice caps are over greenland and or antarctica, therefore they are not displacing any water. also, its less of a question of how much water, but rather how long it is stored. water, like all life materials, runs in cycles through the bioshpere, atmosphere, and lithosphere. there are both long term and short term storage compartments for these materials. things like glacial ice, and fossil fuels are located in long term storage compartments, and the problem arises when these compartments are emptied much faster than they can be filled which is why heating with fossil fuels is wrong and why teh glacial ice caps melting would mean we're all in deep shit.

boom. you just got out nerded.

i stand corrected. id rather be out nerded than having incorrect information.'

i forgot my pocket protector when i stumbled into this thread.

whether or not the polar ice caps would increase the sea level is only worth disussing after assuming that CO2 and other "green house gases" will change the earth's temperature. Climatologists agree that it is solar activity not the presence of gas in the atmostphere that can change global climate temperature.

bruce springsteen should have an accident.

you will still be able marry interracially. marital segregation isn't part of the bush plan.

old people waiting for social security now will not have their social security checks taken away. today's younger generation will be given the option to privately invest the money for social security elsewhere rather than making social security mandatory.

morning prayer will not become mandatory. neither will sunday school.

there will be no draft. There are more than enough people willing to join the military. Democrats started the draft rumor. There were 2 bills floating around congress that would have instituted the draft. They were written by democrats. Republicans took the bills and voted them down hoping to squash draft rumors.

you will be able to abort all you want. you'll just have to make sure you do it before it qualifies as partial birth abortion. When bush was young (about college years), he actually helpe his girlfriend to get an abortion.

hahaha, is Karl Rove online today?

Bush also did cocaine when he was young, doesn't mean that will be illegal in the future.

I think I'm going to learn French. Hopefully Carina and Anne can help.

French is a nifty sounding language I think.

floating sphere please email me your address so i can come over and shake your hand

Yeah, this list is definitely an exageration, but so what, everything in politics is exagerated these days.

Am I spelling exageration/exagerated right?

You ladies are so Overdramatic.

Really, are we Overdramatic? Man, I was hoping we weren't being Overdramatic, being Overdramatic is the worst. Damn Overdramatic.

Why do the republicans on this board keep saying that Roe v Wade will never be overturned? What are you basing that on?

Nahh, they're just Overdramatic.

Wrong. Recruiters are having a harder and harder time meeting their quotas. I'm sure there enough morons in the red states willing to die for George W. Bush's agenda (and are dumb/naive enough to think they are dying for freedom) but it won't last.

The democrats started the draft bill to make a point. They didn't actually want a draft. Duh.
