In the light of this I felt a whole lot better about myself. I realised that I am making a contribution. Who else is pulling their weight.

BTW any sensible, reasoned response to this thrread will qualify the author for an accountancy scholarship.
It'd have to be a lot better than that silly carbon sequestration idea they've been bandying about. Being a geo', I can see a whole lot of problems happening with this idea.
