Global Warming Threat Gets Under Your Skin
Today's global warming threat is sponsored by America's pharmacies, who are itching to serve you.
Poison ivy, the scourge of summer campers, hikers and gardeners, is getting worse.New research shows the rash-inducing plant appears to be growing faster and producing more potent oil compared with earlier decades. The reason? Rising ambient carbon-dioxide levels create ideal conditions for the plant, producing bigger leaves, faster growth, hardier plants and oil that's even more irritating.
To fight this, we're going to need an ocean of calamine lotion. (Scroll to appropriate song in this nostaligic flash back.)
Good grief.

For global warming worshippers:
Delusions that are symptomatic of delusional disorder should be treated by a psychologist and/or psychiatrist. Though antipsychotic drugs are often not effective, antipsychotic medication such as thioridazine (Mellaril), haloperidol (Haldol), chlorpromazine (Thorazine), clozapine (Clozaril), or risperidone (Risperdal) may be prescribed, and cognitive therapy or psychotherapy may be attempted.
Check with your physician first, especially if you voted for Al Gore. We do not give medical advice, but we're glad to tell someone if he's nuts.
