pop 0 #27 November 20, 2007 QuoteQuoteOil companies make money by polluting this earth. Yes, oil companies make money by getting you to use their product. QuoteGore is making money by attempting to clean it. Yes, Gore makes money by getting you to use his products. QuoteI am not sure why people have such an issue with Gore making money. Because many people distrust research done by oil companies soley because they stand to make money from it but those same people don't distrust research done by Gore even though he stands to makes money from it. Much like a parasite over time destroys a human body, humans do the same to the earth. Our human bodies can deal with parasites by fighting them of, and regenrating certain parts detroyed, but over time we lose unless a parasite is removed. Same with earth. Over time it too will lose unless we remove what we are doing to harm it. I am buying into Gore's product, and he doesnt have to show me proof. A little bit of your own education, and common sense shuold be enough.7 ounce wonders, music and dogs that are not into beer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still like proof that something works before I buy it. To do otherwise would show a lack of common sense.Provoking a reaction isn't the same thing as saying something meaningful. -Calvin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pop 0 #29 November 20, 2007 Really? Everytime you buy a jump ticket you have proof you are not going to bounce? edited add: your rig with the parachute and the cypress dooesnt work everytime. you still bought it. i guarantee you do not do research everytime you buy something. sometimes you use your common sense rather then researching. dont you? but if you need proof there is enough studies done that show that peoplew who live closer to plants (like chemicalp plants, pulp and paper plants, etc) run a higher risk of getting luekimia. Part of Gore's "product" is reducing pollution put out by the plants. Do you need to do research on that? I buy that without having to do research. It's common sense my fellow skydiver.7 ounce wonders, music and dogs that are not into beer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rushmc 23 #30 November 20, 2007 Much like a parasite over time destroys a human body, humans do the same to the earth. Quote I mean no disrespect but this is an arogant ignorant POV. I in no way think we are that powerful. We may do something that will kill us off, but the earth as a living planet would live on. Lastly, many take a view that we are visitors of this planet. Sorry, not true. Destroy on purpose no. Give in to this bs? Not that either"America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

If the oil companies are looked at suspiciously every time they advocate something that can turn a profit for them, we should give Gore the same courtesy.Provoking a reaction isn't the same thing as saying something meaningful. -Calvin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Butters 0 #33 November 21, 2007 Quote I am buying into Gore's product, and he doesnt have to show me proof.
