I always took that as evidence of the Great Flood of Noah


Wait a minute. I just took a test on that. Wasn't it the Great Flood of
Moses?


Naw...... It was Johnstown, PA.

How do you know it is happening at a faster or slower pace? The Wooly
Mammoths were flash frozen a while back. Had to be a fast change in
temperature with high winds associated with the temperature change.

Not a good test taker are you?

If that MIT guy wanted to discuss his scientific observations which
indicate that either global warming is not happening, or is totally
unconnected to man's activities, that would have been fine. I would have
been quite interested to read them, because I've been asking for such info
a long time.

Sure. It's part of the "publish-or-perish" world. Especially
as grad students proliferate and grant money dries up... the
competition is leading a shark mentality... in some fields
it's been that way for years.

... The critics are not required to prove otherwise or
offer an opposing theory, but just to identify the flaws in the publisher's
theory or method of investigation, thus negating it's value. Crazy, but it
is a self-policing system that works in their circles.


It's not a perfect system, but it does lead to the honing of
a number of new concepts & good ideas, new technology, etc
etc. It's generally not considered part of the this game to
talk politics or bring in personalities (some people can't
help it though).

Some years ago I did a good bit of research & writing and
had it all stolen for publication. Didn't make a big splash
but it fed the machine.

No scientists, no Greens, no environmentalists, and no
Democrats are saying it at all.

But that's OK, it makes it easy to tell where people get
their info from.

When did the Wall Street Journal's op-ed become a division a

Oh - wait, this is terribly inconvenient for your side.


"My side" is the side that wants to put "conserve" back in
conservatism. I guess you're claiming to be on the 'let's
make a quick buck screwing the environment while it lasts' side?


Feel free to ignore it. :)


Ignore a guy who claims the Bush Administration is handing
out science grants based on favoritism to liberals? Ignore a
guy who claims he was intimidated by Al Gore? Not likely.

I'd like to see what his environmental science observations
are. But as for his political speechifyin', as far as I care
you can trumpet it from the housetops. It's the same
paranoid nonsense that from day one has been embarassing
what few neo-cons aren't totally whacko.

How is boating on your end DSK?

Tell us about your boat. Do you own one?


Do you even own a badge? I don't recall deputizing you, but you're welcome
to get on the bandwagon!

Hey that's cool... a new activity for your little club...

Let all the pro-Bush/Cheney BS get posted, then holler "OT!!
Foul!" if anybody points out the little flaws in logic & fact.

Then you can complain about how the darn fag-loving traitor
libby-rulls hog the spotlight.

Very intelligent... I bet you guys could find those pesky
WMDs if you got together on it...

Have you ever once complained about the OT posts that were
cheerleading for Bush/Cheney? AFAIK you have complained only
about those whom you perceive as libby-rulls.

Maybe you did, and I haven't spotted it. There are a lot of
posts/thread I regularly skip.

Ask JimH if I've ever commented on one of his posts. I honestly don't see
the need for *any* pro- or anti- Bush/Cheney posts. In case you haven't
noticed, there haven't been a whole lot of Bush/Cheney posts since before
Christmas.

Not directly... and I'm not trying to heap any fuel on this
particularl fire.

But the Bush/Cheney Cheerleading Squad, of whom you are a
charter member, get very incensed and tend to pile on any
time statements are made which are not flattering to the
current Administration. I guess it's all part of being "fair
and balanced."

Anyway, I have fallen off the wagon with regard to posting
more off topic than on. No excuses.

You actually *do* contribute posts like that, John, but you do so indirectly
by supporting their policies without mentioning their names often.
