I think that the decade of 2000 - 2010 will be remembered as the decade during which Al Gore should have been president ( after all, he did get the most votes). And if he was president there wouldn't have been the Iraq war. But mostly, if he had been the Global Warming / Climate change / Peak Oil / Peak water problems would have been addressed rather than ignored, denied and provoked. If they were being addressed, they would be smaller problems in 20 - 30 years than they otherwise will be. Peace, poor_old_dad
