Chief anti-denialist All Gore pleads not to be shot over his claim to be pseudo science messenger ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hmmm... this one is interesting! Chief anti-denialist All Gore claims to be only a messenger of his pseudo science and pleads not to be shot. Scientists on the other hand shoot pseudo scientists first and then asks questions later. Particularly any pseudo scientist who claims his pseudo science field is "settled" pseudo science. I'm siding with the scientists on this one. Shoot the messenger first and then ask questions later if there is anything left to ask. That's settled then.
