"One Nevada water authority official said, 'It's like the impact of global warming fell on us overnight.'"

So a return to pre-20th century norms is the fault of 'global warming'?.

A return to the time BEFORE the Industrial Revolution and the use of coal and other fossil fuels is the fault of 'Global Warming'?

Idiot. Both the quoted person and the Enviro-grifters selling this drivel that have propagandized this garbage so far that everything is cased by, or adds to global warming.

Do your really want a government to be in charge of carrying all your communications, whether innocuous or deeply personal?

Remember what totalitarian governments did to the phone systems they ran? Total surveillance.

It would make what Bush and Blair and the rest of them are doing now, look like little more than window snooping.

Yeah, I REALLY want the government to be able to control my internet connection, be able to intercept, record and monitor it at will.

In private hands this become more difficult, and you can switch service providers when you want to.

There is a reason China and Burma and other countries hate the internet and block, filter and monitor it constantly, where they permit it at all.

Do you really trust Bush, Blair or even your local mayor to NOT snoop on your connection?

This of course begs the question: Can it tip in dollar bills?
(OK, it's Britain, so pounds or euros maybe)
