GOOD READING

1) Jeffrey Salmon, Commentary 96, p. 25 (July 1993). An article entitled "Greenhouse Anxiety" by the Executive Director of the George C. Marshall Inst., 1730 M St. NW/# 502, Washington, DC 20036. Copies are available from that address. Contributions welcome. Mr. Salmon reviews the political history of the greenhouse hoax. If you write to them, also ask for copies of their excellent article, "Two Environmental Issues" (1991).

2) Tom Bethell The American Spectator, p. 16 (August 1993) entitled "Doubting Dada Physics." Tom Bethell is the American Spectator's Washington correspondent. This is an excellent article about Petr Beckmann and his work to overturn the theory of relativity. The physics involved is reduced to laymen's examples that are readable and understandable.

3) Also by Tom Bethell in the (23 July 1993) Wall Street Journal p. A6 entitled "Clinton's New Math" is a quantitative look at the $160 billion increase in spending that Clinton calls a decrease.

4) Alston Chase, New York Times Sunday Edition Book Reviews p. 27, (25 July 1993), "The Road to Ecotopia." More than a critical review of two more pseudoenviromentalist books (in this case by Garrett Hardin and Donald Worster), this article contains an excellent dissertation on the compatibility between true individual liberty and true environmentalism.

5) Richard A. Kerr, Science 261 p. 292 (16 July 1993) reviews two papers that measure fine structure in global temperature measurements in the Greenland icesheet. Rapid unexplained oscillations of as much as five to ten degrees centigrade are the historic norm. This is another phenomenon that "global warming" computer models will undoubtedly fail to predict correctly.

6) Jorge L. Sarmiento, C&EN p. 30 (31 May 1993), "Ocean Carbon Cycle" with a noticeable bias toward green politics that may be required for academic survival today, this article is an interesting overview of information about carbon dioxide balance in the oceans. The distribution of CO² in plants and animals is probably Sarmiento's "missing sink."
