:Yes, this article has me pretty puzzled. I'm actually a little concerned that Ed Poor's account has been possibly hacked by a parodist. Is there any way for a sysop to look into this? It's not even up to Ed's usual typesetting. -[[User:DrSandstone|DrSandstone]] 15:12, 11 March 2008 (EDT)

:Not to mention, it's direct copy from the website that is linked to. Compare with "But fear of AGW provides a way to engage everyone in the movement. Socialists of all stripes no longer have to spew Marxist notions that turn most people off; now, they can talk the science of global warming and hurricanes and massive floods and such, and, using fear, trample the average guy into their socialist goals of stifling capitalism, growth, and having the government take over the economy through this environmental back-door." located at http://www.coyoteblog.com/coyote_blog/2007/07/chapter-2-is-it.html.

::Yes, this is a direct copy-paste from a blog, which I think has repercussions beyond the fact that it is essentially an opinion piece. I'm afraid that if we don't hear from the original author, I'm going to have to recommend that this page be deleted. At best, this could be included in another article as a quote, properly referenced. -[[User:DrSandstone|DrSandstone]] 15:42, 11 March 2008 (EDT)
