Where to you hear fantasies like that?
The Porcupine Caribou Herd has decreased.
The Pipeline is insulated, no animals "Get near it when it is

This might well be "rocket science", but it isn't unknown.


You're wasting your time. This newsgroup is full of right-wing
primitives who:

* oppose any reports, news, or science that interferes with the
* ability of corporate America to make a killing,

* typically support whatever the idiot now occupying the White
* House believes,

* think the Exxon Valdez catastrophe was a minor spill, and

* typically think "creationism" is as valid as Darwin's
* theories, and can be "proven" "scientifically."

I'm not kidding.

I think you are right. I was just sort of trolling for a sucker
among them. It's fun to slap a few facts on 'em, just to see
if the squirm in a new way.
