Brisbane Courier Mail: Scientists warn Christmas lights harm the planet - Yeah Right...

An article appearing in the Brisbane Courier Mail in Australia (see article here), we find scientists going off the deep end stating that Christmas lights are "harming the planet".... Anything to attack Christmas and Christianity... The Scientists' position is patently ridiculous but they fail to make a connection here. They say that the use of Christmas lights is harmful due to the excessive use of electricity, etc... however, have these idiots even stopped to consider the amount of power their cushy ivory tower offices in Fantasy-Academia-Land consumes during the summer months in Air Conditioning??... Most definitely not.. they will be stone silent if it meant sweltering in an office when its 95 degrees outside.

The more interesting point is the comment section of the webpage itself... the enormous volume of anti-global warming sentiment is deafening, and gives cause for hope that this SCAM perpetrated by Al Gore, et. al... can be reversed! Amen!
