I agree with Stewart, and to mutilate a saying I've used before - I am not a
seeker after ideas, just evidence. I will draw my own conclusions.
And the evidence is that things are changing. Last Saturday's Science show (3 Feb)
<http://www.abc.net.au/rn/scienceshow/default.htm> has a piece on the way the
weather is already making a mess of the UK.
What I'd like to see is a lot more attention to how we are going to cope with the
change. We can't stop the change, it's too late, we have passed the threshold - we
did that years ago.
