I particularly like the scientist who posted his insistence that both Mars and Jupiter have been observed to be warming over the past 25 years and that global warming on Earth is therefore inevitable and unrelated to mankind.  Space exploration, he concludes will be our only escape.  

I find his logic quite useful and propose that it be adopted for emergency escape plan in any building with a kitchen.  

If you suspect that the candle you just knocked over has ignited your kitchen table, immediately place a cup of water in the microwave and a pan of water on the stove.  If you observe that both heat up independently, the fire on the table (if real) is not your fault.  Climb into your fridge at once.
