My six year old is doing some amazing stuff in first grade. She knows her shapes and can count to 100. Her whole class understands this. I'm willing to bet that if you poll first graders around the world they will know the difference between a circle and a square.  You couldn't hold up a card with a square shape drawn on it and call it a circle and get away with it.

But you could if you were talking in a language they didn't understand. They wouldn't know the difference. Is that what's happening with the global warming theory? The President the other night even referenced it by saying there is "overwhelming scientific evidence".  This doesn't look overwhelming. The IPCC may want to take a lesson from the first graders.
