Aside: Many people these days have access to more information including in their inbox than they can deal with so we have to be selective. If you are posting about a resource, I urge you to include a substantive remarks about the resource to give people a basis for deciding whether to follow up. (Not necessarily as extensive as mine below - I got into it and sent it to 4 lists of people I know. In the absense of some idea what a URL is, I tend to skip it. Of course having an informative subject line is also very useful since subject lines is also imortant for communicating effectively. Most subject lines get read, the body of messages are less read. --------------------------------- The 2:37 minute video at the site http://climatenamechange.org is a real hoot. But it is serious too. The video is very well done IMHO. It starts by asking what people named Katrina and Sandy did to get a destructive storm named after them and shows grafitti like "GO AWAY KATRINA" "WE ALL HATE YOU SANDY" Then It has news reports about hurricanes and such but the names of the storms are... Marco Rubio Michele Bachmann ( MN & only female on this list :( ) David Vitter Rick Perry John Boehner Collin Peterson ( MN :( ) James Inhofe Paul Ryan Jeff Sessions Paul Broun Darrell Issa Lamar Smith Petition to the WMO (World Meteorological Organization) to name extreme storms after climate change deniers. Since 1954, the WMO has been naming extreme storms after people. As scientific evidence shows that climate change is creating increasingly frequent and devastating storms, and with climate scientists declaring these extreme weather events as the new normal, we propose a new naming system. A system that names extreme storms caused by climate change, after the policy makers who deny climate change and obstruct climate policy. Fred -- Fred H.
