It matters not that humans aren't the cause, just that the grant money from the public treasuries keeps pouring in....just like AIDS. Millions of people have HIV that never get AIDS...and have for thousands of years that we know of. Thousands of AIDS patients die of AIDS and have NEVER had HIV....a big percentage of AIDS victims! But, the CDC money pot DEPENDS on AIDS being caused by HIV, which it, obviously, is not. Money is pouring in to cure HIV. Same idea. Did you actually WATCH the video or are you, as I suspect, worrying over Lord Puttnam? The SCIENTIFIC FACTS presented on the Swindle special are irrefutable, once you get the Al Gore politics/money out of it. Larry -- http://www.spp.gov/ The end of the USA and its Constitution....RIP |

Larry does not want to pay the (relatively) chickenfeed amounts to do research that has not, so far, given the answers he wants. Go figure!

If you embrace the IPCC report as the unvarnished truth, then it is
inevitable that you will claim "the other side has no/few ideas worthy of funding, just a lot of hot air and misinformation." But that claim in and of itself paints you into a very small corner from which there is no escape. "Goofball_star_dot_etal" wrote in message ...

All the claims that people here have put forward against GW have been shown to be untrue/outdated/uninformed/unsupported/flawed/biased, so far. I feel sorry for them.. As it happens I am pushing the galactic cosmic ray/Forbush effect as hard as I can to the powers that be.
