Credit to NPR, Melissa Bock for the picture...
I've been watching the local theaters hoping this drivel will not show up. After the climate change skeptic teenager on NPR ( which has now officially gone to crap), I suppose next we will have a bevy of stories about this garbage. Oh wonderful, I get to watch Ben Stein whine and lie for an hour. In honor of him being an economist, I declare too much opportunity cost for me to waste precious life moments listening to deluded people lie.

The picture is a methane geyser, and we see them here also. Whenever you see bubbling, especially in the swamps and bogs here, it is methane being released. I have heard there are enormous bubble releases that occur in the tailings ponds at the mines. It is a greenhouse gas, releasing more carbon than CO2. The technique used for such discoveries is called rational thought or evidence based thinking, rather than wishful delusion.
