re: Can we agree that Global Warming is a hoax.

It's hard to wade through the hysteria and hype on both sides. Given the religious fervor with which the proponents expound their truth in order to raise taxes and control industry in ways that will have no effective bearing on what they're claiming, I'm inclined to think it's all a bunch of hooey perpetuated by a combination of well-meaning eggheads, Marxists, environmentalists and big bankers who want to get in on the carbon credit trading action.
