This is precisely the kind of malicious anti-capitalist rumor that Michael 
Crichton warns us against in his new study of the evil impact of green 
agitators and global `warming' fanatics. In fact, as close study of his 
textbook STATE OF FEAR proves, this tsunami was brought about deliberately 
by so-called `greens' in order to foster sales of Crichton's book and 
demonstrate how effective these malevolent brutes can be in pursuit of 
their incomprehensible agenda.
