 There seems to be this [continuing] myth that Kyoto is effective or
 useful.  There may be an associative benefit - highlighting the cause
 and all that - but remember that the big winners from this whole
 carbon trading lark may well end up being the fission power
 proponents, which would be a particularly unfortunate end game.

 (And pity the foos who sold their CC rights when they signed
 their name in return for a few hard-to-dispose-of long life
 light bulbs recently.)

 Jedd.
