TO THE EDITOR:

It has been brought to my attention through the news that Al Gore has been given the Nobel peace prize for his works with global warming. I'm sorry, the new correct terminology, to make it more palatable is "climate change." Whatever. So can anyone tell me how climate change has anything to do with the Nobel peace prize? Is not the prize for those who do great works in the area of peace? And furthermore, let us not forget that Al Gore is the owner of one of the largest companies now selling carbon off sets. Sounds to me that regardless of whether or not you believe in "global warming," that An Inconvenient Truth is just another inconvenient infomercial. This is absolutely unbelievable.
