"... Perhaps of even greater significance is the
continuous and profound distrust of science and technology
that the environmental movement displays. The environmental
movement maintains that science and technology cannot be
relied upon to build a safe atomic power plant, to produce
a pesticide that is safe, or even bake a loaf of bread that
is safe, if that loaf of bread contains chemical preservatives.
When it comes to global warming, however, it turns out that

The founders of Global Orgasm Day hope to build on their success with a follow-up event the next day called Global Laundry Day.
Global Orgasm Day - because, if you can't get laid in the name of peace...you can't get laid.
i bet, one day, after the world blows up, we'll all look back at global warming and all the other "theories" and just laugh and laugh.
