And the names of the esteemed scientists who say climate change is a
non-event are?

I also note the following article:

Smoke and Mirrors: How the EPA Misled America on the
               Dangers of Second-Hand Tobacco Smoke

                   by Gary L. Huber, Robert E. Brockie, and Vijay K.
Mahajan



     The Environmental Protection Agency has misled America on the
dangers of second-hand
     tobacco smoke.



"Recently, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) completed a report
concluding that exposure to environmental
tobacco smoke (ETS)--the residual material from burning cigarettes that
is released into indoor air environments by the process
of active smoking--presents a serious and substantial public health
problem. For adult nonsmokers, the EPA concluded that
"ETS is a human lung carcinogen, responsible for approximately 3,000
lung cancer deaths annually in U.S. nonsmokers."

As a nation, we depend on the EPA to undertake risk assessments on many
agents in our environment that might be potentially
harmful to us. When the EPA "speaks," we generally presume that its
conclusions are based on solid scientific evidence and are
derived by standard scientific practices.

Our presumption would be overgenerous in the case of the ETS report,
unfortunately. In this case, the EPA's risk assessment is
built on the manipulation of data, ignores critical chemical analyses
and key epidemiological data, and violates time-honored
statistical principles..."

I snipped the rest of their drivel. But for those who wish to continue

For information on "The Heartland Institute" try this URl. (It is a list
of some of their
articles) :  http://www.heartland.org/earthday96/contents.htm

Lastly, check out their list of experts and their sources of data: There
is no science at work here, only greedy people who are far more
interested in money than people.
