Global Warming challenge update

The update score through 2/20/08... Warm-68 Low-52

All I know is my car thermometer showed -0- degrees this morning. It's almost March for cryin' out loud.

I've noted before that the democratic party is a lose conglomeration of victim groups that often have disputes/grievances against other victim groups within the party ie black v hispanics, union workers v environmentalist, etc.

But it's more than interesting when people within the same group fight amongst themselves.

Excerpt from this story

In an environmental dispute seemingly scripted for eco-friendly California, a man asked prosecutors to file charges against his neighbors because their towering redwoods blocked sunlight to his backyard solar panels.

But the couple next door insisted they should not have to chop down the trees to accommodate Mark Vargas' energy demands because they planted the redwoods before he installed the solar panels in 2001.

Experts say such clashes could become more common as California promotes renewable energy and solar systems become more popular.

Thanks Mark for the tip
