I've read the Krauss paper entitled ,

Alien Reptiles : Early Progress Towards Predicting Risk

The abstract to the paper you mentioned is virtually identical to portions of the paper I read. So close I thought they were the same paper. At any rate it's clear that Krauss and company are subscribing to the same formulamatic attack that's become very familiar. The difference may be now that they have everyone ones attention they can try to be a little more subtle. professional sounding , convincing ........concerned. Yes that's it concerned.

I'm a firm believer in the old saying , don't pee down my back and tell me it's raining. Having to pull out an umbrella every time one of these guys like Krauss decides to write a paper is getting old. If any more finger pointing needs to be done it's time to start pointing at the academic set and their attempts to exploit environmental issues for personal gain.
