Recognizing idiots


We only have about 300 wolverines in the lower 48 states.  It seems that wolverines depend on a heavy snowpack to raise their young safely, and with global warming, the snowpack in the Rockies is disappearing.

A front page article in today’s Times was entitled “Climate-Related Death of Coral Around World Alarms Scientists.”  Heat stress is threatening about 1/3 of the world’s coral reefs.

When Republican candidates are asked about global warming, the usual reply is to the effect of “I really can’t comment.  I’m not a scientist.”


Although I am not a psychologist, I do know an idiot when I see one.
