The Earth is Shaking In Its Boots

As everybody knows, the Earth has a fever, but what you may not know is that the fever has given the Earth the shakes.

Here are some excerpts from the five-star-alarmist Associated Press:

"... global seismic activity on Earth is now five times more energetic than it was just 20 years ago.

"The most serious environmental danger we face on Earth may not be climate change, but rapidly and systematically increasing seismic, tectonic and volcanic activity..."

Followed by the standard, "it's still possible to save the Earth, but we must act NOW" quote:

"Unless the problem of global warming (the problem of persistent thermal imbalance of Earth) is addressed urgently and comprehensively - the rapid increase in global seismic, volcanic and tectonic activity is certain. Consequences of inaction can only be catastrophic. There is no time for half-measures."

To paraphrase the great environmentalist James Bond, either we stir ourselves, or we all get thoroughly shaken!

And that's the way the shake-it-up, baby Ball bounces.

Cool it folks! Don't give the nutters another issue with which to panic the Liberals. Once the Eco-Nazis are proven wrong on AGW they will have to find a new cause. Within a year they will have the Nutty Profesor and his gang of tax lovers wanting to implement a "volcano shift" and tax us so we can dig massive tunnels to relieve the pressure on volcanos.

"... nothing intellectually compelling or challenging.. bald assertions coupled to superstition... woefully pathetic"
