| | Dave, thanks for your reasoned response. What reasons do the deniers offer when there are many examples indicating the climate is changing, regardless of whether it’s generated by humans or other factors? |

 | Grant, My wife is just glad I'm working closer to her work and to the kids school. On the global warming question, I think there are Americans that are passionate about it, those that either don't believe it's happening or don't believe that humans are influencing it, and many people in between. I think it's those in-between folks that give the perception that no one cares, and hey may very well be the majority. |

 | Hey guys, here's something cool. Dave is now working at the same company that I am - ProQuest. He's so talented that we recruited him to work here. Welcome Dave! |

| | Deb, from this side of the globe it appears climate change is not regarded as important by most Americans. Do you feel like a voice in the wilderness?

| | And today Sydney had its hottest April day on record - 35.4 C or 95.7 F but there’s no such thing as climate change! |

| | Deb, the seasons are skewed around the globe. We’re currently in our Autumn and having 31 (C) or 88 (F) days. Beaches are packed!

| | It snowed last night here in good old Oklahoma! Just a dusting, but it was measurable. April 7th, and snow. Not a single flake in the winter, nope, we have to wait for spring, lol. |

| | Bill, you’re right about Jack Cassidy on both counts. According to the book, he believed in the adage “Treat ‘em mean to keep ‘em keen”. In spite of his treatment of her, Shirley Jones said she never stopped loving him but couldn’t live with him. Regarding Partridge Family preferences, I only had eyes for Mrs P!

| | Grant, I always had a crush in Susan Dey or Partridge fame; still do! He he... Never knew that about Shirley Jones. My guess is that he was the one who pushed for the threesomes. She probably hesitantly went along with it. Cassidy was the one who burned himself up smoking in bed, I believe... |

| | Dave, it’s just called Shirley Jones. Coincidentally, it’s her birthday today - March 31, turning 84. |

| | oh yes, I know who Shirley Jones is. Interesting. What's the name of the book? |

| | Deb, there are other sections of the book I couldn’t put on this nice, family-oriented site! |

| | Dave, she was the mother in The Partridge Family. Very prim and proper. Certain passages in her book e.g the threesome organised by her husband, Jack Cassidy, and explained in graphic detail, alter that image. |

| | I borrowed Shirley Jones’ autobiography from my library last week. Has anyone read it? It should have come in a brown paper wrapping. Ms Jones is certainly not Laurie from Oklahoma or Mrs Partridge! |

| | Deb, that’s nice to know you’re not living in a wasteland, devoid of morals and knowledge. Regarding the floods, that’s all happening in our deep north - Queensland. We would love some of the rain they’re getting. |

| | Grant, I just read about massive flooding in Australia. Are you affected? |

| | Oh sure Grant, much greater. And if someone fire bombed the police station, they wouldn't rest until the person was caught and put away forever! |

| | Deb, I share your frustration with the ending. My wife differed in that she felt the theme of the film was redemption hence no need to know who the killer or killers were. The pervading sense of poverty and ignorance was what I found unsettling. Is there a greater level of sophistication and hope in the mid-west than portrayed? |

| | Grant, I watched the movie tonight, and it was great. I won't lie. In bigger cities this wouldn't happen, but in some small towns, it very well may. Small towns are very close knit. I thought it had a very frustrating ending. They don't catch who did it. |
