The question seems to be, "How much of each?"

     Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), a leading opponent of climate science, appeared on a Christian radio talk show this week to present an odd argument: the far-right senator's interpretation of Scripture helps bolster his hostility towards scientific data.
     In particular, Inhofe told Voice of Christian Youth America's Vic Eliason about his favorite Biblical citation included in his new anti-climate book, "The Greatest Hoax: How the Global Warming Conspiracy Threatens Your Future."

"[T]he Genesis 8:22 that I use in there is that 'as long as the earth remains there will be seed time and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, day and night.' My point is, God's still up there. The arrogance of people to think that we, human beings, would be able to change what He is doing in the climate is to me outrageous."

There have reportedly been at least thirteen fires on the Cuyahoga River, the first occurring in 1868. The largest river fire in 1952 caused over $1 million in damage to boats and a riverfront office building. Fires erupted on the river several more times before June 22, 1969, when a river fire captured the attention of Time magazine, which described the Cuyahoga as the river that "oozes rather than flows" and in which a person "does not drown but decays."<sup>*

*All of which, strangely, reminds one of the River Ankh in Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels.</sup>
