  1. Clearly you are making this up as you go along. You have no idea of what you are talking about.
  2. "The important issue is that we (IPCC) have yet to settle on a way to estimate the future sea-level contribution due to each mechanism, and so the jury is still out." Shepherd feels, however, that this latest research does not offer a compete picture. "The dataset covers a relatively short period (about 5 years I think) and we know that there is no reason to expect the changes to be linear". Pritchard described to physicsworld.com some of the technical problems that the team experienced when gathering the data. One problem was that they could not run the laser measurements continuously. "We had to run it in bursts, which meant our data came out a bit 'stripy'." That doesnt sound like "The science is setteled" to me.
  3. It would be nice if nature worked as simplisticly as you would want. But to paraphrase a wise man nature is not only more complecated that we imagin, it is more complicated that we can imagin..... Glaciers growing again, sea ice growing again, record low temps, a foot of snow in october in state college?!?!?!? You truly must be brilliant to do the mental gymnatics required to pull of the "global cooling is proof of global warming" stunt. Propts to you
  4. Yo duds its the corperations. (sounds of bong water bubbling) Haliburton, blood for oil, dick cheney, carl rove, black water, suvs, george bush. How cold will it have to get, how much sea ice will have to grow how many glaciers will have to revocer before you say that you were wrong.
  5. during the rodny king riots in LA a Korean shopkeeper protected his property by meerly brandishing a scary looking ar15. No shots fired no one hurt.
  6. You are not far off of the mark. I used to work at a bar. One night the door opened and in came a priest, rabbi and a midget. I looked up and said "what is this, some kind of a joke"
  7. Pick your cherries and build your strawmen.
  8. same thing happened to me in NJ but it was a public option. What is your point?
  9. As an Airborne Ranger I hosted a contingent of French Comandos during an exchange with my LRSD unit. The French were blown away with our POW's (privatly owned wepons) They said if such wepons were availabel in France that even an honest man would turn into a bank rober. Their point of view was as informitave as it was shocking. It seemed their understanding of POW's was inversly preportional to their exposure to them. This prompted my First Sgt come up with an old latin phrase: aben-aden-donus..... aint been nowhere aint done nothin dont know sh*t to describe such people. A perfect example of this can be seen on utube. It is a congresswomen advocating the banning of "barral shrouds" Worth a look. Oh BTW aimed semi auto is vastly more lethal than full auto and one would know this if one was not abenadendonus (or French).
  10. Oh one more thing, I keep it at a fourth grade level so you can keep up.
  11. fair enough, please address my point of how NASA's raw data should be public, not state secrets as you would suggest
  12. Too easy... Given the choice of hyperbole or supstance you jump to the former. Try to deal with the supstance. Oh thats rite u cant. (now attack my spuling und puntuation)
  13. Ok June bug, sarcasm aside, reply to my point that tax payer financed, raw data should be available to the public without being filtered. If we were interested on pure science it shoulc not matter.
  14. NASA's data is our data, not some "politically motivated jerk" that works for NASA. We can all look at it together. Unless........
  15. My point was that just because one can not spell or punctuate does not mean that their ideas have no merit.
  16. Thanks Kallend. good read! I quite like this part. "Mann explained. Sometimes the data didn't line up as perfectly as scientists wanted. David Rind told colleagues about inconsistent figures in the work for a giant international report: "As this continuing exchange has clarified, what's in Chapter 6 is inconsistent with what is in Chapter 2 (and Chapter 9 is caught in the middle!). Worse yet, we've managed to make global warming go away!" Yes AGW is unquestionable, the science is settled.
  17. I originally asked for rebuttal of claims made on the first video. The response was: Spoiler: He's a Bible-thumping moron with no science background and thinks everyone with AIDS should be quarantined. Then I asked about a second person's claims, and the response was: A conservative politician with no science background? At no time did anyone take on the factual claims made by these people. Please refute the facts, not the folks.
