From the inbox (White House refused ...)
The White House in December refused to accept the Environmental Protection Agency’s conclusion that greenhouse gases are pollutants that must be controlled, telling agency officials that an e-mail message containing the document would not be opened, senior E.P.A. officials said last week.
Weird parallel: About 2 years ago I refused to accept a JEEM editor's conclusion that one of my papers could not be accepted for publication. I told them that an email message containing the rejection letter would not be opened. I have yet to see my paper in print but I list it as forthcoming on my vita.
Hat tip: Mr. Nobody ("The W plan: if you have bad news coming in the mail, I don't open it.")
