Wow, this is exciting, I can't wait.  Also, good relief for those poor scientists that have to spend two years in Antarctica.


Admirably ambitious (Kindler - 2/16/2007 10:38:51 AM)
Al Gore is thinking big for the greatest cause we have.  He's showing that you don't have to run for president to make a difference...
