    As much as I wish this shit were real, that’s a pretty lousy witness lineup. The guy making the rounds selling a book. And who the eff is Michael Shellenberger and why is he testifying?

    Oh, but wait, there’s a guy from NASA! He’s an associate director (!) who handles…“space policy and partnerships.”

    What a joke this shit turned out to be.

    Edit: Allow me to answer my own question, Michael Shellenberger’s illustrious biography includes writing the books San Fransicko: Why Progressives Ruin Cities and Apocalypse Never: How Environmental Alarmism Hurts Us All

      It’s a couple days away, so there’s no need to jump to conclusions one way or the other now. Just wait and see how it pans out. And, there are links to the witness statements and bios in the link of this post if you’re not familiar with them.

        Yeah, the witness statements are how I figured out Michael Shellenberger, historic witness #4, is the author of San Fransicko: Why Progressives Ruin Cities and Apocalypse Never: How Environmental Alarmism Hurts Us All.

        I want to believe and all, but this ain’t doin’ it.

          Yeah, I’m not necessarily a fan of his other work, but he’ll be talking about his report on Immaculate Constellation.

          Personally, I’m patient and will withhold judgement until after the hearing happens.
