...that shutting down KXL would completely stop tar sands exploitation. It is what you needed to see in order to be contrarian and dump a load of attitude on someone. But I said nothing to that effect.

And here are your own words for your perusal:
I never cease to be frustrated by the unwillingness of the American leftwing of the environmental movement to thwart so many attempts to reduce carbon emissions.

Why is it frustrating, again? Huh? You're accusing people of wanting to reduce emissions... Do you realize that?

Perhaps its better taken as a Freudian slip: You get frustrated when people want to reduce carbon emissions.

You entered into this thread with acrimonious finger-pointing (indeed, with hyperbole) -- a pretty entertaining example of projection and an abstruse triple-somersault of illogical statements (the kind where one lands on their face).
