The Environment
Two articles crossed my path this week on the environment that I thought was interesting. First, evidently the windmills near Altamont Pass, CA are taking a toll on wildlife in particular birds. So much for renewable energy sources. Maybe the Center for Biological Diversity would prefer global warming (see next)?

Secondly, what would we do without another warning about global warming? Cox News Service's Jeff Nesmith wrote in my local paper (no links) an article longer than the one found here "2003 another global hot one" (Atlanta Journal Constitution).

Now I'm not real sure about the threat of global warming. I tend to see it more as cyclical weather patterns. But more research is needed.

Even though I'm not a "tree hugger," I do appreciate the outdoors. I can see places where I grew up and used to play turned into houses, stores, parking lots and apartments. Maybe it's just nostalgia.
