Yes it is sad. I have no idea if the Gore movie is a good take on the global warming issue or if it is just a sensationalist media event designed to rake in the dollars. (I have been impressed by gore in the past on this issue so i am thinking he treats the subject fairly, and if he makes a buck or two good for him, that is the american way after all). But what i found striking in this thread is that it was ignored completely just because gore is the messenger...... that is just stupid.
