Michael Crichton: "Don't Be Scared" ... of Global Warming

Conservative television reporter and author, John Stossel, writes an interesting column about Michael Crichton's newest thriller, State of Fear. Crichton, the esteemed writer of such blockbuster novels as Jurassic Park, has dared offend the politically (but not scientifically) correct crowd which insists that global warming is a major threat to human civilization. Gee, I'm not much of a Michael Crichton reader, but I just might be "warming" up to him after all. Hey, Claire! Put State of Fear on the summer reading list, will you?

And, by the way, one of the early posts here on The Book Den related to Michael Crichton and his refutation of the poor science involved in the global warming scare. Check it out here.
