Where else should any right-thinking and reasonable person be able to let off steam than in the comments section of a blog?<br /><br />It's what keeps the Barking Spider sane, after all ;)<br /><br />As for Monbiot...ah, Monbiot.

Nothing changes, the Monbiot media-fag gravy train trundles on. And, as you point out, anything hastily conceded in the white heat of disclosure is subject to swift and comprehensive retrospective qualification. <br /><br />Wise after the fact, <i>yet again</i>, is old Georgie boy.<br /><br />At this point, the urge to profane is strong =)black hole sunsethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13754977921603292534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278366793340877738.post-52241408365924679452009-11-25T02:07:41.737+00:002009-11-25T02:07:41.737+00:00The "science" doesn't need re-checki...The "science" doesn't need re-checking, D, it needs to be taken outside and burned!Barking Spiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00968827142725464915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8278366793340877738.post-11776731677800242992009-11-25T01:06:41.205+00:002009-11-25T01:06:41.205+00:00Yes, it's been a good time recently for debunk...Yes, it's been a good time recently for debunking current scares, what with the Health Protection Agency telling us today that a third of school-kids have already had the dreaded swine flu and half of them didn't even notice!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
