JPOR: Junk Science Exposed

["Paul W." <a4xnut@xxxxxxxxx>]

Just thought I'd share this little tidbit of news on "Global Warming" I got

all of you.  It's list-related since this is often cited as why we must close
down motorized access.  If you're interested in subscribing yourself, I left
the subscription info part intact as well.
