Incidentally, I always meant to ask - what's a "climate fanatic"? I get a "climate change fanatic" but is a "climate fanatic" someone who fanatically believes we should have a climate?

Just anything strongly felt that is other. It's a way of chopping the standing out from beneath the opponent.

I will say one thing. I avoid using the terms "believe" and "denier" because those have religious connotations. So fanatic is a harder claim then.

Also, I will rejoice the day Florida sinks beneath the sea.  :lol:

You know as well as me he refused to fund research about AIDS as it was just something homos died from.
Not his voters.

I know it much less well than you, since he did fund AIDS research.

Wasn't that only after his buddy died?

He started increasing funding in '83, Hudson died in '85.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

And let hundreds of thousands of Québécois flock to Arizona instead?  Or worst, have them stay here during winter, totally depressed?  How hateful you are :(
I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

If Microsoft Excel decided to stop working overnight, the world would practically end.

Just so long as they don't find Palm Springs.  There are enough Canadians there already.
