   Given that this NG is loosely part of the family of science fiction   
   newsgroups, my modest proposal to the global warming community is to get the   
   trek-geeks involved.  They like to point out the similiarities between   
   cellphones and the communicators used by the Enterprise's landing party, for   
   starters.  So if they were to get to work on a real-life version of   
   "Starfleet"'s weather-control network, as a private-sector venture, they   
   could create jobs while taking the wind out of hurricanes, all with much   
   less of that ugly political posturing.  At least using Trek Logic.  :o)
