Here is some more information (Luckliy not made up) to help support Matthew's last post and the fact that Al Gore is possibly the biggest tool on the planet.
This link here is very enlightening. 
Al Gore wrote the book Earth in the Balance: Ecology and the Human Spirit, which is the wacko socialist manifesto to regulate everything based on junk science. He parroted the extremist EARTH FIRSTers terrorist party line with a straight face. It is probably the most ignorant book ever written about the environment. In it he wrote the scary totalitarian prescription "we must make the rescue of the environment the central organizing principle for civilization."The following are highlights from a 1992 Democratic National Committee (DNC) memo by Jonathan Sallet to the Clinton-Gore campaign that highlighted Gore vulnerabilities from his extremist manifestoEarth in the Balance. The memo was obtained by the Wall Street Journal, which published it in August of 1992. Among the DNC's findings:
"Al is a radical environmentalist who wants to change the very fabric of America."
"He (Gore) criticizes America for being America -- a place where people enjoy the benefits of an advanced standard of living."
"He (Gore) has no sense of proportion: He equates the failure to recycle aluminum cans with the Holocaust."
"He (Gore) believes that our civilization, itself, is evil (because it is, in his words, 'addicted to the consumption of the earth.')" Recently Gore was asked by Gannett News if his opinions have changed since writing Earth in the Balance. Gore said:"There is not a single passage in that book that I disagree with or would change."(Gannett News Service, 3/23/99)
I think it is very obvious that Al Gore is a big nut job looking for his next 15 minutes of fame. I mean come on, everyone knows he didn't invent the internet...I did! (Now that was made up)
