Gerald - 2004-06-07 06:23:26 It's said Nancy R. was running the show for the last couple years of Reagan's presidency...not sure if that's true. What is it about Barbara Bush that inspired that comment, I wonder...* * * * * * * * * * * * Anna - 2004-06-07 14:04:51 If Ronald Reagan hadn't cut the NIH budget to shreds, we might have a cure for Alzheimer's by now.* * * * * * * * * * * * Hillary - 2004-06-07 20:17:40 Reagan was at best incompetent and at worst criminal. "Trees cause more pollution than automobiles do." -- Ronald Reagan, 1981* * * * * * * * * * * * Eric - 2004-06-07 20:59:11 "Trees cause more pollution than automobiles do." Environmental scientists ruefully confirmed he was partially right. In hot weather, trees release volatile organic hydrocarbons including terpenes and isoprenes - two molecules linked to photochemical smog. In very hot weather, the production of these begins to accelerate.* * * * * * * * * * * * Hillary - 2004-06-07 22:01:23 Check your facts, Eric. Trees recycle nitrogen oxide, they don't produce it.* * * * * * * * * * * * Laura - 2004-06-07 22:39:26 The British Geological Society quotes an Australian study that found that Reagan was right, at least in terms of eucalyptus trees, which produce smog-exacerbating hydrocarbons. Nevertheless, Ypsidixit continues to plant fruit trees on every inch of her property, since their food, house-cooling, and wildlife-aiding benefits greatly outweigh this consideration. * * * * * * * * * * * * andy - 2004-06-08 06:17:25 Angela Davis spent some time on the lam avoiding bullshit, trumped-up murder charges. To clear up any confusion about what the Panthers meant by the word 'pig', I quote the following newscast, featuring former California governor Ronald Reagan: Lisa: "Thanks Tom. Governor Reagan, would you consider Angela Davis dangerous?" Reagan: "Yes, she is a Communist." Lisa: "Tell me Governor, how did the police department determine the guns used in the Marin County Massacre were all registered to Angela Davis?" Reagan: "Simple, she was a Communist." Lisa: "Governor, it had been rumored that one of the weapons used was in fact a weapon recovered in an earlier raid that was never returned to Angela Davis. Is this true?" Reagan: "Is Angela Davis a Communist?" Lisa: "Thanks Governor. Back to you, Tom."* * * * * * * * * * * * Hillary - 2004-06-08 08:24:33 that's a great interveiw, andy! The studies found that some trees react with pollution to produce nitrogen oxide. That's a far cry from "Trees cause more pollution than automobiles do".* * * * * * * * * * * * Eric - 2004-06-08 09:06:05 I'm no Reagan apologist, but anyone who is followed by the media around the clock is bound to say a lot of bizarre things that do not present facts in their proper light. Even John Kerry has said some weird stuff: "During the 1970s America created the Corporate Average Fuel Economy -- or CAFE -- program to increase auto efficiency. This was the right decision. Our vehicle fuel efficiency is worse now than it has been in twenty years." I doubt that's what the President meant to say.* * * * * * * * * * * * Laura - 2004-06-08 09:12:26 I am not a Reagan apologist either, by any stretch of the imagination. The "more than autos" bit seems questionable, if it's measurable at all. And, Andy, that is as Hillary says a great quote; thanks.* * * * * * * * * * * * kdfgjkl;jgs - 2004-06-09 07:33:21 Georgina Clifford,* Govenment don't want me to sell UndergroundCD !Check Your spouse and staff Investigate Your Own CREDIT-HISTORY hacking someone PC!Get a new passport!
