Mid Week Funnies

Hello folks! Time for our weekly review of news from around the nation in editorial cartoon format.

Much of the discussion of global warming impact has been industrial growth measured against drawbacks. Recently some protests have focussed on the fact that much of the worst impact will be against those who benefit least from industry. In the worst scenarios the future could be pretty grim, but I bet we all remember the dystopian future scenarios of the 80s. Remember "Road Warrior" ? We were all supposed to be living in a wasteland already and instead we have eBay and the internet.
I like this cartoon not only for the humor but also because of the subtle reference to the corn/oil political maneuvering. Please read here for a VERY neat article on the surprise brilliance of the Bush administrations ethanol policy.
