high school social studies - when we got to the unit on WW 1, I used to assign my students to READ All Quiet, because I'd been assigned to read it in high school, and I'd NEVER forgotten it. Anyhow, I THINK it had a similar effect on my students. My husband always showed the original film, which I
do like, but I've always preferred the book itself..... Ms Bigmack

I know a "cloud physicist" - a physicist who specializes in weather processes - who has been convinced of the science of climate change (despite the fact that he's a conservative republican politically!) since the 1970's - EARLY in the 1970's. Part of the problem in informing the general public has been the disinclination of most scientists to attempt serious communication with the Great Unwashed. Of course the rampant - and even PRIDEFUL - ignorance of the Great Unwashed DOES make this sort of communication intrinsically difficult.....alas.... Ms Bigmack

BELIEVED IN?????? FAITH is something to be believed in or NOT believed in, according to personal preferences, but scientific findings are to be either accepted or rejected, based on the facts involved. Of course one can "accept" a scientific finding with reservation(s), based on possible future research that may or may not bear out current scientific findings, but BELIEF is NOT the issue. FACTS are the issue. Ms Bigmack

the drugs that KILL people, like tobacco and alcohol. MOST of my friends' elderly parents died of tobacco caused disease, but I DON'T KNOW OF ANYONE WHO DIED OF CANNABIS CAUSED DISEASE. I mean there probably are some - the stupid folks who drove WAY under the influence, but COME ON! What drugs are the MOST dangerous to our national health? It sure as hell ain't cannabis. Ms Bigmack

evidence of this...... Melting ice sheets in Greenland = more fresh water in the north Atlantic = equals thermohaline current submerging sooner = cooler, colder weather. Ah the ironies of global warming and the stupidities of homo-so-called-sapiens. Ms Bigmack
