The Fat Bush Theory

Is described in the International Herald Tribune. It is an hysterically funny analogy to explain Dubya's stance on reducing the growth rate of greenhouse gas emissions.

I wish I'd thought of it first!

  1. Thank heavens we don't suffer here in the UK and EU with such misguided thinking and faith in targets as solutions.

  2. Point taken. They are ALL targets and nothing more than that.

    But, at least ours are actual reduction targets, not growth slowdown targets.

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.

Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.

I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
