Hey, that I knew. What is missing in this report though is who among
humans are to blame. See, NOT ALL HUMANS POLLUTE: some drive Stupid
Unnecessary Vehicles while others ride bicycles. And how about those
who --like me-- want to ride a bike, but find there's no safe place
for it. It's a frightful jungle out there, you know. So we must sit
back and swallow in disgust reports like this that blame all humans.
But I say to these so called experts: Hey guys, it's not "humans,"
it's the lions of the jungle that ride SUVs to satisfy their
Napoleonic complex, and it's those who can change things, but rather
decide to spend a fortune in extravagant projects. Well, this is
Napoleon himself...

HOW THE LION BENEFITS FROM THE LITTLE ANIMALS' POVERTY
One day all the little animals went up to the King of the Jungle and
complained about their poverty, and in particular about the fact that
every time, during the dry season, they had to travel long distances
to drink the precious fluid, and demanded a WATER WELL be built for
them... They cited how the resources that they contributed to the
kingdom were wasted in WARS and EXTRAVAGANT PROJECTS to the tastes of
the King... He, however, replied with all kinds of excuses: the lack
of resources, that it wasn't a matter of him not wanting it, but that
it was a matter of "priorities" --which was one of his favorite
words...
Meanwhile, an Owl --who had very good eyes-- had been observing life
in the jungle, and thought this way: "Every time there's a dry season
the little animals must come to the little dirty waterhole where the
Lion waits for them... Had they been well fed and strong, he would
have had to run after them and even risk resistance. And, more
importantly, the little animals are forced to fight the Lion's wars as
the quick way out of poverty..."
And that's how the Owl landed an important --and well paid-- post in
the brand new Astronomy Department created by the King of the Jungle --
to the effect of exploring life in other planets...

PARIS - Officials from 113 countries agreed Thursday that a much-
awaited international report will say that global warming was "very
likely" caused by human activity, delegates to a climate change
conference said. Dozens of scientists and bureaucrats are editing the
new report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in closed-
door meetings in Paris. Their report, which must be unanimously
approved, is to be released Friday.
Two participants, speaking on condition of anonymity because the
meetings are confidential, said the group approved the term "very
likely" in Thursday's sessions. That means they agree that there is a
90 percent chance that global warming is human-caused.
The last report, in 2001, said global warming was "likely" caused by
human activity. There had been speculation that the participants might
try to change the wording this time to "virtually certain," which
means a 99 percent chance.
The report is considered an authoritative document that could
influence government and industrial policy worldwide.
