- He never said environmental scientists. The UCS sent the "Global Warning"
- to all living nobel laureates in the sciences, all members of the
- National Academy of Sciences and most members of other scientific
- academies around the world. The majority of these Nobel
- laureates have endorsed the warning, along with many academy members.
- The recent issue of the UCS publication "Nucleus" contains the
- entire text of the warning.

- Is this resume padding?
