The nukes of hazard
(May 3, 2008) In a May 20, 1974 interview, the late CBC reporter Barbara Frum asked India’s UN Ambassador Samar Sen whether India violated its agreements with Canada in developing and detonating an atomic bomb. Ambassador Sen’s response was that India had not developed an atom bomb. “What did it develop, then?” Frum asked. Sen responded: “India just exploded an atomic device, nothing to do with a bomb.

Hide your name on Wicked Pedia
(April 19, 2008) Last week, in my column on Wikipedia’s zealots, I described how the website’s editors patrol the website’s pages to enforce the conventional wisdom on climate change. Anyone skpetical of the United Nations’ take on global warming gets swarmed — Wikipedia’s enforcers neutralize him and his comments or take him out completely. Continue reading

A Time to Deny
(April 18, 2008) “If climate change science doesn’t turn around and soon demonstrate concrete evidence of harm, the global warming issue might well just melt away.
