An interesting argument--"See, all this cold weather and early snow just
further proves that human-generated carbon dioxide is causing global
warming."

Now who made that argument, not I?


And I thought the market for blinders disappeared with the horse-drawn
carriage.

Dave, stick with jurisprudence, science is not your thing.

You have clearly made my point:


"Global warming models predicitng unpredictable events."


Great model, isn't it?

I used to love models. My local hobby shop doesn't carry
this one, though. What sort of glue does it take? Any cool
decal options?

Doug,

It's one of those balsa wood cut to fit models. Use only the finest glues
containing terpenes and CFC's. Any decal will work as long as it is green.

If it doesn't come out exactly as you want, just add or trim the balsa until
it fits.

Ignorance is strength.

Property is theft.

Particles are waves.

http://www.importanceofphilosophy.co..._Identity.html
A is A: Aristotle's Law of Identity
Everything that exists has a specific nature. Each entity exists as
something in particular and it has characteristics that are a part of what
it is. "This leaf is red, solid, dry, rough, and flammable." "This book is
white, and has 312 pages." "This coin is round, dense, smooth, and has a
picture on it." In all three of these cases we are referring to an entity
with a specific identity; the particular type of identity, or the trait
discussed, is not important. Their identities include all of their features,
not just those mentioned.

Identity is the concept that refers to this aspect of existence; the aspect
of existing as something in particular, with specific characteristics. An
entity without an identity cannot exist because it would be nothing. To
exist is to exist as something, and that means to exist with a particular
identity.

To have an identity means to have a single identity; an object cannot have
two identities. A tree cannot be a telephone, and a dog cannot be a cat.
Each entity exists as something specific, its identity is particular, and it
cannot exist as something else. An entity can have more than one
characteristic, but any characteristic it has is a part of its identity. A
car can be both blue and red, but not at the same time or not in the same
respect. Whatever portion is blue cannot be red at the same time, in the
same way. Half the car can be red, and the other half blue. But the whole
car can't be both red and blue. These two traits, blue and red, each have
single, particular identities.

The concept of identity is important because it makes explicit that reality
has a definite nature. Since reality has an identity, it is knowable. Since
it exists in a particular way, it has no contradictions.

One need not have a carrer in science to be good at it. Good science is the
application of observation, measurement and logic. A legal background has
the prerequisites to make one good at science.

Look at Al Gore. He's a lawyer and former tobacco farmer. He says cigarette
smoking is a significant (this word has scientific meaning) contributor to
global warming.

No eco-wacko refutes him because of his law background.

So why is Dave really attacked? hmmm?

If you read the article you will find that the
Pro-Humanity-Causing-Global-Warming-Believers invoked the Nuremberg trial.
So does that mean they automatically lose by Godwin's Law?

I think you have to mention either of the two words "nazi" or "Hitler"
for Godwin's Law to come into play.
