Well after reading the climate change article, I'm glad to come on here and find out I'm not the only one that had a bad taste in my mouth. No we don't need more " how to be a morning person" but this isn't my idea of personal development either. I recommend a lot of people to his blog, and most of the people I know will run at that first site of anything having to do with global warming. No need to use the sugar coated new terminology the PR department thought up of. They are saying our globe is warming, there for it's global warming. That way people will be able to remember the global cooling trend that happened a few decades ago. This article just does not seem like a positive type of article that would come out of stevse mouth. All these global warming treats are fear tactics, and fear does not belong in our minds. If you want more people to be vegan, then that's great. I'm cool with that. Please just don't use fear mongering propaganda to do it. You are telling us meat eaters that we are damning the planet. I drive a V8 muscle car so I guess I'm even worse. This is no better then religion using hell to get people to do things the way they want. If you want people to be vegan, then tout the POSITIVE aspects of the life. Not the negative aspects of the opposite life. So many times you've mentioned in your blog about positive affirmations. How is this a positive affirmation? You wanna fight meat eaters, then guess what. You'll just create more meat eaters. As cliche as it might be, I might as well use mother Teressa quote.

I was once asked why I don't participate in anti-war demonstrations. I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I'll be there.

Not everyone has the type of metabolism to where they can be vegan. This is not right for you to put this kind of guilt on people. Just because the goverment or scientist says something, does not make it true. You've said it your self that you are no expert on this matter. So why bother talking about something you aren't an expert on? You are brilliant and can figure out the inner workings of our minds better then anyone I've ever read. Please stick with what you are amazing at, and stay away from things that way to many of us are ignorant about. We came here to listen to you speak about what you know well. I truly hope this isn't the direction you are taking this blog. This is YOUR blog and we are only guests and I know we have no say in it. I also know that you respect other peoples views, and you use us as ( in your own words) " your beta testers". I hope that you view our response for what they are. The people responding are your loyal readers. I've been reading it for over a year now. I can honestly say that you saved me from completely destroying my self 1 year and 5 months ago and I have nothing but gratitude for you in that regard. I'm not going away, and will continue to read your archive, but it doesn't mean that my self or your other loyal readers will stay on course reading what you write if this continues. Scaring people does nothing but create more sheep to follow. I'm coming at this whole thing exactly the way you would have from what I have read about you. I hope that has not changed.
