Yes, the planet HAS been this warm before. It has even been warmer that this. Remember, the nobility in France were peeved that England was producing the best wine in the 11th century.

However, that is NOT to say that anthropogenic greenhouse warming is NOT a problem. I think that it clearly has been shown. If you have been around this group long enough, you will remember I was one of the most ardent OPPENENTS of "global warming", but the evidence is gone beyond the point that it can be disputed. Yes, there have been foils, plots and underhandedness, but the complete corpus of evidence is clear: Anthropogenic warming is occuring. What this means in 100, 500 years, is another matter, but I digress.

Leslie is right... all energy needs to be local. Cut the petro-crap, and the problem of transmission. The same can be said for water and food. Don't hold your breath, though. Can't control the population if they are energy (water and food) independent..
