Heh - well at least one good thing came out of the Global Warming
fiasco - we're beginning to understand that we were almost had.

Don't you usually do this when there's a cold snap or some snow?
I've seen reports that NASA says we had a record hot first 6 months and
it looks to be a record hot year.
Don't know if that's true.
I don't believe anything I hear, just know if I'm sweating or shivering.
Right now I'm sweating.
Just talking about sales mojo here.
Coolers sell best in the summer, and heaters best in the winter.
Sure, there's those who can sell coals to Newcastle and iceboxes to Eskimos.
But those are real pros.
I get the feeling you ain't a scientist or a salesmen.
Maybe you should pick your spots better.
No offense. Got your number and I'll call you if I need you.

Jim - I'm saving the link to read when the oranges get frosted.

Depends on your definition of "scientist".

Some say that mathematicians who specialize in the application of
theory are scientists by default.

Default of who, I can't say. :)

As to sales - I readily admit that I would not make a good retail
sales person.

I would probably find a way to kill anybody who actually wanted to buy
anything for asking too many questions or being stupid.

However, it is a good read if only for the more common sense approach
by another one of the top hard scientists who were classically
trained.

Does not make a case one way or the other actually - only explains
what the difference is between cult science and real science.

Tom is dead center in the "conservative cult," aka The Cult of D'oh.

So, I guess when the vast majority of climatologists are convinced that
adverse climate change is caused by humans, that's not good enough for
you... you must be smarter than all of them! MORON
