"Keep your eyes on the man"

Neal Degrasse Tyson is taking on Global Warming and basically bitch slapping those who would say there is no such thing. He's gentle but direct, showing how it isn't a theory but a fact. The quote I said above is where he showed the difference between weather and climate in a way a 6 year old could understand.

The sad thing is that I think he thinks rationality will sway fundies. All he's really going to accomplish is kicking the wasp nest. But, he's done this a lot with this first season of his version of the Cosmos. So, he possibly knows what he is doing. He's just so adamant that we listen. Would that those who need to, would.
