Hi Platt

Well I was speaking of the characters in the book, not the author. Sorry if 
I wasn't clear. It seemed a good read but I really didn't take the premise 
seriously. I thought it was a work of fiction. That's what the cover said.


>Have you read Crichton's book about global warming.

Yes I have. I've read The DeVinci Code too but I tend to doubt Jesus Christ 
left a lineage of geniuses here on earth. But who knows?


>Have you
>examined the scientific data charts therein?

I don't know if "examine" is the right word. I looked at them. Not being a 
climate scientist I'm not sure I have the ability to interpret them 
properly. I assumed they were all part of the social level story behind the 
book. I could be wrong.

Right. I'll shut up now.

Thank you,
