"There's no danger for the passengers as long as there's food and drink on board," Lindvall told The Associated Press.

That was the best line of the story. Plenty of (free) drink is a passenger's dream. Just assuming but I would immagine that sernario would be played out to placate the passengers.

Get ready for Al Gore to switch gears and try to tax us on global cooling.....and how it is man's fault. It is the job of politicians to keep the unwashed masses ignorant, confused, scared and divided against one another so they can get rich off our taxes.

I'm pretty sure religion has the market cornered in this realm.

Heavy ice cover is not uncommon further north, but the ice rarely gets thick enough in the Stockholm archipelago to trap powerful passenger ferries like the Amorella.

Climate Scientists to fight back skeptics.

http://washingtontimes.com/news/2010/mar/05/scientists-plot-to-hit-back-at-critics/

In private e-mails obtained by The Washington Times, climate scientists at the National Academy of Sciences say they are tired of "being treated like political pawns" and need to fight back in kind. Their strategy includes forming a nonprofit group to organize researchers and use their donations to challenge critics by running a back-page ad in the New York Times.

"Most of our colleagues don't seem to grasp that we're not in a gentlepersons' debate, we're in a street fight against well-funded, merciless enemies who play by entirely different rules," Paul R. Ehrlich, a Stanford University researcher, said in one of the e-mails.

Some scientists question the tactic and say they should focus instead on perfecting their science, but the researchers who are organizing the effort say the political battle is eroding confidence in their work.

Paul Erlich is the same goober, who along with his wife as well as Obama's Science Czar Holdren, wrote about the need for population control that included forced abortions and even taking a Malthusian approach that included parents needing to put their own children to death. I find it very difficult to believe the guy still has an audience?

Ah, but at least you have a choice with religion. Don't tithe? Dirty look from the preacher. Don't pay taxes? Time in the federal pen. Big difference.

interesting comparison.....depends if your fear is eternal (the fear of the Lord is the begining of knowledge) or temporal (the fear of the government is __________ (you fill in the blank)).
