Or better yet, write a whole essay and send it to the "opinions" column. ****** The Science of Gore's Nobel December 5, 2007 The Nobel Committee might as well have called it Al Gore's Inner Peace Prize, given the way it seems designed to help him disown his lifelong ambition to become president in favor of a higher calling, as savior of a planet. The media will be tempted to blur the fact that his medal,
