""In any case, fire burns; that's its nature, and you can't expect to change that. You can use it to cook your meat or to burn down your neighbor's house. And is the fire you use for cooking any different from the one you use for burning? And does that mean you should eat your supper raw?"
Maddy shook her head, still puzzled. "So what you're saying is . . . I shouldn't play with fire," she said at last.
"Of course you should," said One-Eye gently. "But don't be surprised if the fire plays back.""— Joanne Harris

Weird. You and I both made a Costner reference in our last post.
Oh, and about the global warming thing:duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh
I know, I was suprised by that too. I actually read yours before I wrote mine, but I had already planned it after I saw the story on the news this morning.
And I think the big thing about this particular announcement (as opposed to the countless others) is that everyone seems to be in agreement that it's too late to stop it; the process has started and even if we somehow got everyone in the world to change their behaviors instantly, it's going to happen anyway. And since no one is going to make any significant changes anytime soon, I think we can expect to say bye-bye to a lot of beach-front real estate real quick.
