And then there was that day in the spring of '68, caught up in the stampede of students through the left bank streets, following a bugle and a flag. The bugler and the flag bearer had a clever ploy. They'd burst out on the street from a store front, and take off down the street hell bent for leather. The crowds were attracted, and began rushing to see what was happening. This begat more crowds, and soon you had a riot size crowd followin' that pair with the horn and the flag.<br /><br />Tue Apr 14, 02:19:00 AM EDTlinearthinkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05201292791445921817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-83772484943233202042009-04-14T02:21:00.000-04:002009-04-14T02:21:00.000-04:00And you, Linear, with your opposition to governmen...And you, Linear, with your opposition to government energy policies, are highly suspect.<br /><br />We will have our signs made tomorrow.

Henry Waxman of California and Edward Markey of Massachusetts added it into a bill they authored.<br /><br /> "The provision, which was just released, reportedly would set grounds for plaintiffs who has “suffered” or expect to suffer “harm” attributable at least in part to government inaction. The provision defines “harm” as “any effect of air pollution (including climate change),” according to the Times. Plaintiffs could seek up to $75,000 in damages a year from the government, with $1.5 million being the maximum total payout."<br /><br />Remember that it was just weeks ago that the President of the United States blamed flooding in North Dakota on global warming.
