There is no way to gather a significant amount of data to suggest that we're doing anything "bad"
The amount of carbon (and pollution) we sending into the atmosphere is staggering, and currently accelerating.
Do you like the earth's atmosphere as it is now? Do you think we can just carry on going in this direction, without adversely affecting it?

Game Review: Torchlight 2 221
CowboyNeal writes: "Last week was a big week for gamers, with the release of both
Borderlands 2 as well as Torchlight 2. I already shared my thoughts
on the former last week, so I got to playing the latter over the weekend.

didn't have? And, the big question, how does it stack up against Diablo
3? Click the link below to learn my impressions of the game."
