When I was attending elementary school in the late 1940s and 1950s, we 
had a newspaper for kids called "The Weekly Reader".  It was to 
encourage us to use our new reading skills and become aware of some of 
the "current events" at the same time.  I can recall a SERIOUS debate on 
the irreversible changes in the weather caused by the Atomic Bomb!  This 
was back in the "Duck and Cover" days.  That was followed by the 
"Nuclear Winter" scare, and now we have GW. 

Seems like it's just one thing after another.  Hardly worth doing 
anything more than waiting for the end...  :'(

BTW, on beers, I ran across "Moose Drool" while on a trip to Alaska last 
year.  It is made in Montana, and is pretty good.  I also like Shiner 
Bock made right here in Shiner, TX and the general class of brews called 
"bitters" that are served in the pubs in England. 

Also, Budweiser is now a BELGIAN beer!!  The company was bought by a big 
Belgian brewing conglomerate just this month!  New slogan:  "This beer 
is for EU"...
