"A 2-year-old boy died in Staples Center at a Lakers game..." a few days ago after scaling a balcony ledge. This will feed the paranoia of millions of parents. But you know what? A lot of careless parents should be more paranoid. (Mike)
Corporations are sitting on piles of cash and not hiring. But are still hesitant to hire because they are worried about, "... consumer demand that's still slack..." How do you get it through their thick skulls? Demand will increase if you hire, because people will have money to spend, thus stimulating the economy!!! (7 of 6)

I had also referred to the methane issue about five years ago (http://mstabile.blogspot.com/search?q=methane). Can't say I'm surprised at the lack of concern from our uneducated masses.
And the reason a former wastewater treatment layman like me knows about methane release is because it's the same process we used in anaerobic digestion.
It is so simple a full fledged scientist doesn't have to know that the warming of the permafrost and the organic matter turning anaerobic will have a catastrophic effect on the environment.
It just needs to be said that climate change deniers and the crazy politicians are fucking fools!
