Example:
Subject:
Mercury pollution is harmful to humans, requiring real solutions.
Response trying to change the subject:
Global warming is a lie and Al Gore sucks.
Original topic:
Mercury pollution is harmful to humans, requiring real solutions
Do people think that by changing the subject we are going to forget the original topic?
Why are you against changing the topic? Are you racist?
(That was sarcasm)
The reason I brought up Warming is that we need real answers and not temporary fixes or patches if we want real change. We plug one whole to make another.
Sorry I wasn't more clear before.
Do people think that by changing the subject we are going to forget the original topic?
I see Dick Tracy.
spartacus, you have noticed the main method of GOP 'debate' here?
If you mention environment, they hear you say global warming. Global warming is a hoax, therefore all environmental concerns are a hoax.
It's really helpful to be simple minded.
yes you will forget the original topic
Well then I recommend we give up this silly plan to replace all light bulbs with fluorescent bulbs. That would be a good start.

Mercury is poisonous and remains in your body, the body does not expel, the same with lead poisoining.
Have you come up with how much pollution there is, there are usually standards to how high the emissions can go.
Do we know the extent of mercury pollution and what are the effects of it. Is there reputable documentation that one can examine and cannot refute, so we can instill solutions.
The first step is to understand the pollutent, mercury, and break it down, scientists are needed, research causes effects, solutions.
There are none, it is there, you can't get rid of it just stop using it.
One hundred, four-foot long fluorescent lamps
contain about 4 grams of mercury. One mercury
switch in a thermostat contains about 3 grams of
mercury. The 0.5 grams of mercury that is
typically found in a single thermometer could
detectably pollute 5 million gallons of water in San
Francisco Bay.Gauges, Manometers, and Thermometers:
So with us all moving to the use of fluorescent lamps we may have a big problem. Al Gore is the one moving us to use them.
