Get ready for the onrushing disaster now.
Yeah, sure, I know that Demos are supposed to be a buncha wimpy Republican wannabees. However, with this group - you might be really SURPRISED! Members of the Patrick Henry group include a lot of the major Green Party people and other local activists, mostly KPFK fans. This time, they are going to have a real star performer on tap. Greg Benford is both a noted physicist and a top-ranked sf writer. He is also a professor of physics at UCI. AND, he was on the two big federally sponsored panels of scientists assigned to look at Global Warming, whose results were quietly shelved by the current administration.
Benford both knows his subject and knows how to present it. I've heard him before at the Orange County Science Fiction Society Club, both on this subject and others. Greg was a close friend of Phillip K. Dick when he lived in the OC.
So, find out what the reality really is about Global Warming and what our realistic options actually are. This talk should be on Prime Time TV, but you get to listen and participate live.
