Is there ANYTHING that Al Gore can't do? Here's an excerpt from a Human Events article about the ripple effect he has had on an impressionable young mind in Australia:
Australian doctors have published in a medical journal the case of a 17-year old held for observation, suffering the first observed case of “climate change delusion phenomenon” (CCD). It seems that he suffered from fears that “due to climate change, his own water consumption could lead to days to the deaths of millions of people through exhaustion of water supplies.” This particular product of modern education techniques “was referred to the inpatient psychiatric unit at Royal Children’s Hospital Melbourne with an eight-month history of depressed mood…He also…had visions of apocalyptic events.” Where ever would he get such an idea?
OK, this is where it gets uncomfortable, but…first observed case? Sure, and I just swerved from the first observed case of road rage. Good grief, you could have padded the walls at last year’s Nobel Peace Prize award ceremony. Bring the giant butterfly nets to any college campus, and call avant garde “artist” Christo to surround the European continent in bubble wrap, stat, because this mania long-ago reached epic proportions....
EDITORIAL NOTE: No, this is not the first time I heard this report, but I liked the way it was phrased. Someday, when scientists try to classify this strange mental disorder, they would be torn between placing it with schizophrenia (because the sufferer lives in an alternate reality) or with Bush Derangement Syndrome (notable for how often the patient shouts obscenities, notably the four-letter word "Bush").
