@ Aia

I am not entirely surewhat you are trying to say. So before i make a fool of myself let me ask you if you are saying what i think you are trying to say.

are you saying that the earth warming up is some natural process and that we humans are in fact grossly mistaken to believe that we can somehow raise the temperature of the planet? because that is what the moral of your story seems to suggest. especially since you went and back it up by saying that we cannot reverse the flow of the mississipi back upstream.

if that is what you are saying then i have to say. perhaps you are right in that we cannot reverse the flow of a river. but we can in fact do many things with a river. we can change its path( not drastically i admit) we can reduce its flow and water level. we can polute it. the list goes on.

and to get back to the story of rusty. the sun did not need rusty to rise. that is true. in fact the crowing of the cock was a result of sunrise. i.e. he started to crow in response to slow sunrise and ended up believing that the sun rise in response to his voice.

if you want to compare it to human greenhouse gasses and global warming you are in fact saying that we are emitting greenhouse gasses in response to the earth warming up. this is illogical. even if english is not your native tongue you can follow my argument. you have your cause and effect reversed here. rusty's crowing is the result of sunrise. even if in his limited mind he believed the opposite. our greenhouse gasses is not the result of global warming.

now it is possible that global warming is not the result of greenhouse gasses and if that is your argument then i must admit that you might have a point.

but al gore is right. the earth does have some strange symptoms and until we can be sure that it is as natural to earth as puberty is to a human child we might want to consider a thorough examination in case it is in fact disease.

I apologize. When I wrote the Rusty story, I was mad at Al Gore and his environmental acolytes.
Truth to be told. I was bitter, because a spokesman for Al Gore sent me a “cease and desist” e-mail, against my business.
I was told that the product I was selling in ebay.com it was too similar to their product, for which they
already have secured rights and pattens. That my product was too environmentally friendly, a concept that they solely, hold all legal rights to.


I was selling a 32 FL OZ glass bottle filled with pure, fresh, lunar air. Guarantied not to have been breathed by any human before.
I am not even allowed to show you a picture of it. However, if you hurry and Google it, you might be able to see it.
My product was called:
iMoon-u.


I was doing quite well with its catchy name thanks to the iPhone hype.
Oh, well, I suppose a good thing out of it would be Apple can not sue me now.


Disclaimer: For those of you, still using a slow CPU, like the Pentium II, between your ears. I do not
exist. Any similarities to actual names or places have been purely coincidental. The name of Al Gore
is a work of fiction.

Uh, Aia that seems to be quite the story there....a bit off of the topic of Al Gore's relentless landslide into foolishness. Are you on any mood balancing drugs or, perhaps, should you be? Your English seems to be suffering from a mild case of, ...oh how should I put this? You're not from around here are you? In closing, I look forward to more of your amusing insights.

Treachery is just a matter of timing and who wins in the end.

Aia seems to be up to his old tricks, i.e.
Selling ill gotten items on eBay, tisk tisk. You should have know the man would come down on you with his iron fist. It sounds like you have entirely too much free time on you hands. Although, if you you paid attention to my last post, I foresee some strong pharmaceuticals in your future and perhaps some basket weaving. I don't like being so harsh to someone I have never met in person but I think that with out my intervention you may harm yourself. Well, until we speak again, I suggest avoiding sharp objects, lengths of rope and firearms. Don't worry, I've got your back.

@ Aia

Sorry for only responding now. You probably thought that I have forgotten all about you but actually, for reasons which shall soon be clear, I was away on Venus for the past few days and as you no doubt know the solar winds can make inter-planetary communication a nightmare at best. Especially during this time of the year.


>I apologize. When I wrote the Rusty story, I was mad at Al Gore and his environmental >acolytes.

Don’t worry about it. We are only human all of us.

>Truth to be told. I was bitter, because a spokesman for Al Gore sent me a “cease and desist” e-mail, against my >business.

I sympathize. The same thing happened to me when I tried to bring the benefits of modern economics to the native inhabitants of Alaska and North-west Canada by selling them solidly frozen water. My friend went through the same thing when he tried to sell salted water to the dolphins. In fact so enraged were we at the gross violation of anti-thrust legislation that we took the liberty of taking a trip to Venus and seeing Mr. Gore. He was there conducting a study on excessively carbonated oxygen.

>a concept that they solely, hold all legal rights to.

He immediately set the record straight. They were not trying to establish a monopoly, but were merely trying to protect the consumer. In fact they are planning to ban the sale of all moon based O2 by the year 2012.

Why you may ask. Extensive testing on human astronauts had proved that prolonged use of moon based O2 can lead to weak chest. In 94% of all cases the lungs tend to go on strike when the person returns to normal breathing. This is because moon based air contains notably less carbon dioxide then regular earth based air (see appendix A for more details.). Having seen what is possible in an environmentally friendly environment the lungs find themselves under the impression that breathing should be easy.


Appendix A:

Independent studies by a number of scientists in seven different countries have put a moon based atmosphere at some 87% less carbon dioxide than its earth based equivalent. Although they are unsure why, they have attributed this to, amongst others, to earth’s factories and cars. For those of you who might ask what the man in the moon uses for transportation; apparently they switch everything to solar power decades ago. Earthlings are at a distinct disadvantage in this regard since the moon, being up there in the sky, are fully in the sun.

Note:

Although it is only a rumour at this stage, we have had several sources informing us that the lungs are planning to up their protests. They have heard that no one had ever chopped down a tree on the moon and are demanding that humans stop.

Someone smuggled out the following excerpt from a conversation with one very disgruntled lung. Here is what the lung had to say. “We are only trying to do our job. Why are the humans destroying our tools? Everyone should have the right to earn a living.

I own a little piece of real estate in the `minor crater area'.
Bought it when hardly no green men had yet come to live there.
Now, it is getting a little too crowded for me.
The iMoon-u fresh air used to come all the way from there.
