The finding may lead scientists to rethink some aspects of climate change models, which assume humans weren't responsible for much greenhouse gas before the Industrial Revolution.

  5. I think the issue is that it was never meant to be sold. Fulton County had a deed for the property and should have marked it as a cemetery. The sold it unaware the cemetery was there. They should have sent an appraiser.

I you saw the news reports Fulton County has dropped the ball and allowed the property of the cemetery to be sold. The owner intends to build on the property and there is currentl
  7. I can see that our climate has changed and I believe building new Wal-Marts and such may of contributed but the higher costs confuses me. I mean its obvious we will pay more for food. The cost of gasoline has contributed to this. Storms become more violent and more frequent and the costs exponential. Then what is a solution? Do you speak of carbon credits to teach us SUV driving, long commute people a lesson? After all I bet you have bought yourself an electric vehicle, walking to work or better yet jogging. Your carbon foot print is down to virtually nothing. No need for air conditi

America's Civil War18. 1 (Mar 2005): 14,16,70. From Proquest Historic Thesis Articles As Major General William T. Sherman's armies drove through Georgia on their way to Atlanta in late summer 1864, hundreds of civilians dreaded their approach.

  11. I had to give up Re-enacting when I got married. I did enjoy camping out and the comradeship with others. Internet would be difficult to do without a mode of transportation as well

  15. My guess regardless of the republican or democratic governor is what the cost is going to be to each state. Montana might be able to pull this off but what about other states?

  17. I watched all of them however. The Partridge family was not all that often. I remember on sundays the three programs we watched every Sunday. There was Gospel Jubilee my parents watched, the news, The Lawrence Welk Show, Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom and then the Walt Disney Show. Marlin Perkins hosted Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom. You needed insurance to handle those animals or you needed Big Jim to jump into a herd of wildebeasts or try to rope an ocelot with a pole and rope loop. We sang, Good Night Sleep Tight and may your dreams come true.. when Lawrence Welk went off to aggr
