I would like to thank the Academy for ...

... creating or contributing to the creation of world starvation. The Academy in this case is not television of Hollywood, although some of them have fed this feckless and reckless idiocy. Rather, it is the use of corn - the world food staple item - for fuel, to save the planet from a nearly non-existent global warming catastrophe ...

What is known with absolute certainty, not questioned by anyone, nor does anyone doubt its existence or impact - world starvation, in large part because of the rapid depletion of corn for fuel.

I would like to thank Mr. Gore and his idiot counter-part, Leo DiCaprio, and every other of those fear-mongers who will have contributed to and in large part caused this new famine that will further destabilize the world, but we will have less warming while we starve.

I wonder if it will make a difference to the billion or so people.
