Hmmm,

        One thing I remember during the days of my youth was being told that
mankind was polluting the environment, which was going to cloud out the sun
and cause another ice age.  So, all in all, I prefer a "Hot" age.  At least
you can wear shorts.  Think of all the solar power that would be available.
 And all the neat mutations that would occur.  Especially gills for bad
actors who skim the seas on funky catamarans.

        But let me make this perfectly clear, I am against pollution.  And bad
acting.  And any kind of self-righteous wacko, from whichever spectrum they
come.
