What about a National address from the President about global climate change and what we are going to do about it? Read, "alternative energy" :D

We don't want this to be a missed opportunity vis a vis Irene, he said.

7. Perhaps overpopulation of what amounts to a desert is part of the problem?

Hey! Let's all move to the South West, then complain that it's HOT and that there's no water for our golf courses! :shrug:

11. Yeah, but like drought in Georgia you have unlimited solar available for A/C or desalination.

It has to be brought to market so we can drop coal and oil and save our world.

It's normally in the 100's this time of year still.
