......so let's discuss a random topic. How about....global warming? You are a clever bunch. Do you believe it can defintely be classed anthropogenic?

No.

Does it really exist at all?

If it does exist, then I believe I know the real source!I saw in a recent article that the management consulting industry is booming: but that perhaps this boom is merely down to all this hot air moving fast!! ;)

PWWOAR!The people that are bored are the people that are boring. So said an Economics guru to an audience that I sat in once.I didn't take it personally!No - it can't be because it involves humans interacting with nature. If it simply involved humans getting heated, then you'd have another . anon. Even after all those * * * *flakes kept falling in the UK, I wouldn't count on another iceage!?! Boxershorts - pleased to see your sense of humour remains intact, despite those would-be challengers! Dont knock Boxershorts I thought, and we were not knowingly undersold.

Hey, nonnynonny,:)Glad to be back. Nice to hear a positive word or two as well. Good for the soul.B

My knowledge of global warming is limited - What kind of time frame are we looking at before we see a noticeable difference in UK temperatures? And what make of watch would people advise to buy to enable us to keep track of this time?

Failing that, can any one recommend cufflinks which change in colour according to the levels of CO2 in the surrounding environment?
