  1. My outline hurt way worse, but that's me. The shading wasn't that bad... of course I may have just been numb by then. ________________________________________ "One out of every four American's are suffering from some form of mental illness.

    I can also say I enjoy sitting on the floor in the Skyvan a lot more than you do! ________________________________________ "One out of every four American's are suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends. If they're okay, then it's you."

    In Reply To Yet another reason why it's good to be a girl. I don't know...I've had a few "lip unders" just sitting on the plane and boy it ain't fun! Especially when you're riding the hump and your legs are pressed together tight. Shocked Think friction burns in your softest of softest places. I've never had that problem. Maybe it's your jumpsuit. ________________________________________ "One out of every four American's are suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends.

  7. I'm bored. Come and chat with me. I need to be entertained. http://www.supremechat.net/chat.html enter your username in in the join channel box insert: #dropzone otherwise you'll end up in some other room. We can't have that now can we? ________________________________________ "One out of every four American's are suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends.

  8. First, be careful in what breed you choose. Be sure that you have sufficient time to provide appropriate care needed for that dog. Not all dogs have the same requirements. Many of my clients have behavior problems that stem from lack of exercise and/or environmental issues. Doggy day care can be a great "outlet" for a dog a few days a week. Choose the facility carefully, they are not all a good place for your dog. Where do you plan to keep the dog while you are away? ________________________________________ "One out of every four American's are suffering from some form of mental illness.

  9. I love the dogs and the traveling. I'm not so big on the dog poop part and the politics... which is basically the same thing. ________________________________________ "One out of every four American's are suffering from some form of mental illness.

  10. >Solar variation causes a 'radiative forcing' (i.e. imbalance in energy budget) >of .3w/m^2 at worst. This is very easy to quantify; the solar panels on >satellites measure this directly. >CO2 increases, at the current levels, cause a radiative forcing of ~2.4 watts >per square meter, or 8 times what the solar variability does. So if CO2 is like >adding a blanket, solar forcing is like adding one sock. Where may I find the source of your numbers (i.e. who's GCM are you quoting?). Satellites exist in a variety of orbits. What level of atmospheric orbit are you referencing for panel readings? The sun easily keeps the moon's surface at 100C. Where a sample reading is taken makes a big difference in estimates. >Of course. One way to make that happen is to set up a condition that ends the >CO2 imbalance; humans going extinct would solve that. Best hope that the earth's >ecosystem is not _too_ good at correcting imbalances. >More likely we will simply kill a lot of people off, until a) there are fewer >users of fossil fuels left or b) we finally figure out what they are doing to us >and use something else. Again, it would be better if we figured it out before >too many people die. Do you not believe that overpopulation is causing climatic change? The pure number of organisms, man and beast, more often than not unnaturally protected from their environment by science and technology? As it stands, the world is unable to efficiently support the volume of homo-sapiens who already exist. If there were fewer people, there would be fewer people using fossil-fuels. Evolution is a harsh mistress, and earth is a dynamic system. They WILL find a way to Balance, no matter how smart we think we are. >A massive wave of vulcanism can cause a dramatic increase in CO2 and >a resulting mass extinction. Again, is that really what you want to emulate? I >mean, a meteor could kill us all in a massive fireball. Does that mean arson is >natural, or that we shouldn't put out burning cities? Comparing vulcanism and meteoric impacts to arson and burning cities is a straw-man fallacy. You can't compare natural occurrences with human-caused events. Try this instead --> Would you extinguish a lightning-caused wildfire to save a town? If so, you are exerting your influence on the natural progression of the environment to protect your species and causing ripples in a dynamic system. (See next paragraph below). Do you disagree that the use of fossil fuels has protected the homo-sapien from the naturally-occuring events in the environment? How many humans are you willing to sacrifice to protect the environment for humans? >Why yes! And why did we get our chance to _become_ us? Because a massive >extinction about 65 million years ago killed off the previous dominant top >predators. Another good reason to not have another massive extinction (unless >you want us to get out of the way for the next dominant life on the planet, that >is.) Ahhh -- you've arrived at my end point. Let's discuss the basic concept of global warming. You propose that a massive extinction event is exactly why homo-sapiens evolved. Tell me, if you could have prevented the K-T event and "preserved the environment" and the billions of organisms that died, would you have done that at the expense of an unknown future (i.e. homo-sapiens)? Or would you let the extinction occur because it was of 'natural' causes? What's my point? That homo-sapiens ARE natural, and by default so are their actions. Anything we do is natural, because the origin of species says we evolved here. If you believe we evolved here, what right do you have to say that a natively evolved species of a planet can cause "unnatural" changes to its own biosphere? If global warming melts the icecaps and submerges Hong Kong and New York City, the "unnatural" changes are simply damaging or reversing other "unnatural" changes humans have made to the biosphere. It's a vicious cycle -- change begats change and I challenge you to justify how some human-caused changes are okay, and others aren't, because everything we do is part of a dynamic system. >>>By the way, the people who cry loudest about **humans** causing >>>global warming stand to gain money and power from the hysteria. >I will be most interested to hear you tell me how I will gain power and money >through my belief that anthropogenic CO2 emissions are the primary driving force >behind climate change. (It's a nice sound bite, but effectively meaningless.) I'm intrigued by the assumption that my statement refers to you, and also by your coarse allegation that my statement is meaningless. Indisputably, the loudest cries about global warming are by those involved in electoral politics, in which case my statement is completely accurate. Are you one of those people? Since the scientific world is not unified on the primary cause of global warming, I'm not interested in debating this topic ad-infinitum, especially in an online-forum. Go ahead and respond to my questions above, but if you would care to continue in a slightly different direction, I am genuinely interested in the details of your proposal for solving the "anthropogenic CO2 crisis", with due attention given to the rise of Communist China as the world's soon-to-be leading energy consumer. Please also include the expected level of economic impact to both 1st and 3rd world countries as a result of your proposed action(s). -cura ut valeas- ________________________________________ "One out of every four American's are suffering from some form of mental illness.

  22. Three moles awoke from a winter nap. The papa mole poked his head out of the hole and took a deep breath. "It's spring! I smell the tree sap and the grass!" he declared. The mama mole also popped her head out of the hole and said, "It IS spring. I can smell all the flowers!" The baby mole tried and tried to pop his head out of the hole, but couldn't. "Is it spring? All I smell is molasses!!!" ________________________________________ "One out of every four American's are suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends.
