.... confirms that," says Harte. The grid is divided into ten sections. Each of the ten sections covers thirty square yards of the meadow. The infarared lamps will heat every other section by 2.5 degrees. The unheated sections in between allow researchers to compare the efects of the lamps with the regular state of the meadow. One time a week, Harte will take gas samples from buckets turned upside down for ten minutes at a time on both the heated and unheated strips through fitted nipples at the bottoms of the buckets by syringes, then analyze them with a gas chromatogr .....

.... the ozone reacts with a chloride ion from chlorine monoxide, the ozone molecule is destroyed. So chlorine monoxide is an ozone destroyer. There is always a certain amount of chlorine monoxide in the atmosphere. It is important to remember that ozone is constantly being created and destroyed in the atmosphere. The amount of ozone in the atmosphere is based on these reactions. There are many factors that influence the amount of reactions like season, latitude, and solar cycle. Because of these factors ozone can vary wildly each day. In the northern latitudes there can be up to .....

.... is clear evidence that the supply of workers in the [unskilled labor] categories already exceeds the demand for their services,” says L. Mishel, Research Director of Welfare Reform Network. In view of these facts, I wonder if these trends are good or bad for society. “The danger of the information age is that while in the short run it may be cheaper to replace workers with technology, in the long run it is potentially self-destructive because there will not be enough purchasing power to grow the economy,” M.
