[QUOTE="John Chiara, post: 67661, member: 53"] Re: Hurricane Sandy I agree that probably it has an effect. So how do we turn that into policy that actually benefits people? I am assuming we want policies that actually improve living standards not just fulfill a well intentioned agenda. Since we have no "control" earth to compare to how do we gauge our success? No medical approval would ever be granted without this kind of testing..and with good reason.. it would probably hurt/kill people. So we find ourselves in a sticky situation...making policy based on science that cannot be held to the testing standards that we can verify with normal scientific method. I am perplexed by this. Seems like making a decision while entwined in a Catch 22. So, what do we do? [/QUOTE]
