SEE THE DIFFERENCE?!? In less than a month -- one month! -- the glaciers that once roamed the park have receded, and the Lake threatens to overtake it. Something must be done to stop this "phenomenon." Clearly, this must be the Bush administration's fault....
I think I'm now qualified to become either the Supreme Leader of Greenpeace or, at least, a reporter for the BBC....
