Fun with catastrophe

Ok, so I have to do it, I`m adding Denial Depot to my blogroll in a new section, _The lighter side of catastrophe_. I know I will probably regret it, but I just can`t help having a little fun while I`m over there.....

Bill Maher nails GOP post election behaviour

Okay, so this is way off the general climate topic, but I really got a kick out of this article from Bill Maher published in the LA Times. If Al Franken can be a senator, why can`t Bill Maher be an LA Times columnist? Here are a few notable quotables: The governor of Texas, Rick …

In a statement issued at noon, EPA administrator …
