Though I was quite young, I'm sure I never really got the lyrics right away to "If I had a hammer?"

What is more important, is to stop and correct abusing Mother Earth, rather than arguing about the degree of those causes. We cannot dismiss Global Warming however, even if you do not believe in it--consequences are too serious.......and common sense tells us to not pollute or at least reduce and minimize and develop better and cleaner ways. Are we the primary cause of global warming? I'm not sure, but I'm seriously concerned about that we may be. But Earth has continually evolved with cyclical changing weather patterns--and perhaps there may be a "randomness" inherent within our atmospheric wind patterns caused by many factors along with certain weather cycles that we cannot determine with our brief weather history.

I liked your song, and always like your performance. You have a great raspy voice that gives you a unique vox--not many can say that!

Thanks Eddie. I'm convinced that we are a strong contributing factor. But that wouldn't be enough to make me write a song about it. Was staring down the last hurricane that made me do that. grin
