Is he one who collected the 10 000 from bush" on 19:39:08 03/12/07 Mon The fact he wrote an unpaid op-ed to a outfit that recieved a tiny grant from Exxon is a proposterous attempt to link him to Exxon. >>Interesting FYI: Ball and Exxon > >href="http://www.nationalcenter.org/2006/05/seven-degre >es-of-...">http://www.nationalcenter.org/2006/05/seven- >degrees-of-... > >In this case, Dr. Tim Ball is attacked for giving a >policy briefing to a Canadian think-tank, the Fraser >Institute.
