Poison ivy may grow more virulent
The Hartford Courant
Poison ivy of the future may be a lot worse. Researchers have
monitored
the growth of poison ivy vines in today's atmospheric conditions
and
in
conditions with elevated carbon dioxide concentrations, which
global
warming is expected to produce by midcentury. Not only did the
elevated
carbon dioxide boost poison ivy growth, but it also increased
the
most
toxic form of urushiol, the plant chemical that causes the itchy
rash in
humans. The findings should interest a lot of people because a
separate
U.S. Forest Service study found that up to 85 percent of humans
are
susceptible to poison ivy.
If it is the Hartford Courant, you can bet they have nothing more
than
a political agenda driving 90% of the stories they print. In a
recent
survey, the HC was found to be the second most biased news paper
in
the country. All they really do is copy the NYT stories and add a
little political propoganda to keep it lively. There is little
news
worth reading there. Sorry Harry, the HC is little more than a PR
firm
for the Democratic Party.
Go scratch yourself. The Courant wrapping fish is more reliable
than

And Harry, without fighting about it, you would probably be
considered
by a majority as left, even far left, your talking points tease
ideologue. I don't expect you to view the HC as biased.
I'm a middle of the road leftie. BTW, I looked at today's editorial
page at the Courant. Real radical stuff, calling for resumption of
inspections of highway bridges, a bit about golf, and a hit on a
state
agency that loaned money to Enron.
BTW, about 72% of the country now believes Bush is a total, complete
F.U. Maybe the problem with the Courant is...you.- Hide quoted

Well I think he is a FU too, and a pussy but then again, I am not an
ideologue. I did not do the study, you do not live here to see what
that paper and it's extreme left (sell out to insurance companies and
anyone else with a buck) agenda has done to our state. The HC is on a
mission, just cause you agree with the mission does not make it
unbiased. Although you may consider yourself middle of the road, most
who read you would take your support of the HC alone as proof positive
of it's biased agenda. Like I said, I live here, my dad reads the
Journal Inquirer which basically copies the Courant and the Times word
for word.
You don't read it, but you're OK with your crystal ball method of
knowing
what an article says. Talk about a FU.....- Hide quoted text -

As much as I reread my post, I see nowhere where I suggest I don't
read it. We get both here, although I did quit my subscription to Time
last year. I read the NYT online because of an agreement with my
oldest so we can debate, I get the Courant's opinion, a day early

Well, you certainly didn't read the article about poison ivy, because
earlier, you try to draw a lame connection between that and political
agendas. You were probably you cold obfuscate that fact by adding lots of
distracting messages. You can't.


WTF - the dangers of writing while on hold. Try this: You probably thought
you cold obfuscate that fact by adding lots of
distracting messages. You can't.



LOL, I read that and knew you had edited your message while doing
something else. It is a common problem in NG.

Yeah, but what was he doing the *second* time?
