Obama wants cheaper pennies? Tell him to stop redistributing wealth to Wall Street with bailouts that cause such massive inflation.
Whoops, right?

It always astonishes me that on a geeky site like Slashdot with an audience that in theory puts such a high value on science, you get so many global warming denialists.
Someone interested in discussing science would not use words like "denialist" with the obvious intention of provoking an angry response. Pot, meet kettle.

Butthurt? Then point out that Earth experienced an ice age 500 million years ago despite 4200ppm atmospheric CO2. Oh wait... that's a skeptic's talking point
Galciation has never come close to killing off any humans in Africa.
