One of my favorite Refutations of "Catastrophism" in Global Warming by the late Michael Chrichton. My appreciation for his intellect continues to grow with his passing. Every high school senior should watch this interview. Start at minute 22 for the global warming stuff. The first 22 minutes is about his final novel, "Next", which was about Biogen companies that own a disease as well as its cure and the new problems posed by genetic research, pandemics and government intervention in medicine. Very timely.
This interview was two years ago and to see how different the rhetoric by Charlie Rose then and now demonstrates how much has changed and how he impacted the argument by being one of the few that had the courage to stand up and say "Bullshit".
