It's ironic that had he been declared the victor in 2000, it is unlikely he would receiving a Nobel prize today. Eisboch Most republicans think that global warming isn't happening in any way, man made or otherwise. Imagine how awful they must feel realizing that someone won the Nobel prize for something they believe to be fictitous. This is the citation of the Nobel Committee: "Indications of changes in the earth's future climate must be treated with the utmost seriousness, and with the precautionary principle uppermost in our minds. Extensive climate changes may alter and threaten the living conditions of much of mankind. They may induce large-scale migration and lead to greater competition for the earth's resources. Such changes will place particularly heavy burdens on the world's most vulnerable countries. There may be increased danger of violent conflicts and wars, within and between states." So, if I have this straight, Gore won for proselytizing a less than universally accepted "scientific" theory which, presumably, has led to action which prevented (or not) possible future competition for resources, possible future conflicts, and future wars which haven't happened yet and which may (or may not) ever occur because they are only a possibility. I think is a great precedent! If one can win a Nobel Peace Prize for preventing events from transpiring which never actually would have happened anyway, than I am your man. Year 2050: Shortwave Sportfishing's posting of the first rec.boats low transom thread is finally received by the residents of Omicron Perseii VIII, saving the Earth from brutal annexation. Gimme my prize!! You can keep the medal, just give me the million bucks.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Have you ever heard of a place called Somalia? It's universally accepted that the civil wars there are attributed to climate change. Drought. What caused the mid-west dust bowl in the 30's? Was that global warming? Is every occurrence of drought caused by global warming? What happens when the rains come again, has global warming stopped?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Global warming and simple climatic events are two completely different things. Bassy, I hope you are feeling better, what was the problem that kept you away from rec.boats for so long?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Hopefully he knows you are serious. But I doubt he understands that unlike those who would see Cheney, Bush, Rush, etc, dead, and state it regularly, We actually are/were concerned for, even Bassy. But then again, most of "us" value every life, personally I don't want to see anyone's wife grow old alone... Bassy, there was a thread or two about you which I was in on when we talked, before you knew who I was (sorry for that, did not think you would respond if you did, meant everything I said then, as I do now). Everyone on and off list that asked me about you wanted to see you well, of not back;), everyone, no exceptions... Think about that when you are stereotyping us from now on and things will go much smoother...- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Yeah, your holier than thou, huh? How about *your* sterotypes? Which Hannity/Rush sterotype am I today, socialist? Communist? A liar? How are you feeling today?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Fantastic, as I do every day! How about you? Your boat isn't in Aqualand Marina by any chance is it? I understand more dockage is becoming unusable there every day. I am feeling OK, I don't want to over commit and say Fantastic. ;) I have keep my boat at Aqualand in years past, and it was on the Holiday Marina side and about in the middle of the finger, so it was very deep. I enjoyed Aqualand staff and the Dockside Grill. Since my dogs come up with me, it the only on water restaurants that will allow my dogs to sit next to me. My slip today is in deep water, but the marina has contacted me to see if I am willing to move my boat out of the water so they can accommodate some of the larger boats that can not be dry docked as easily as mine. I told them I prefer to keep it in till after Thanksgiving, but if they really need the space, to let me know.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I like the freebie ramp at Aqualand, but if go to the edge of the ramp right now, you'll look down about 3 feet to the water! Unlike some, because I really like the area so I use their ramp, I go to their store, grill etc. some. I fish some very decent spots up Flowery Branch, and then usually run around the islands to Shoal Creek. |

Didn't the manufacturer of your Ranger go bankrupt? No wonder you matched it up with an eTec? I hear the eTec brand will be going national, as soon as the number of stocking, selling dealers increases from three. :} All joking somewhat aside, if the sea level rises as fast as Gore says it will, aren't you just a *little* bit worried that it might overflow that low transom?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Uh, the boat will float and ride at the same height whether in two feet of water, or two hundred.

Somalia was racist, corrupt, and at war long before Al invented the idea of taxing corporations based on normal global cycles, They are not connected. the way you are using them, they are just words... What do the Global Taxing folks say about the great historical freezes in South America lately and the fact that the antarctic ice cap is growing faster than any time in history. Well, they won't address it, and when faced with the possiblity of be faced with these facts they dismiss the query and run away...- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - "Global Taxing folks" WTF? And you, like a lot of conservatives with there head in the sand can't possibly understand how the antarctic ice cap is growing faster and still have the earth warming up, can you? It's actually quite simple. Want to try, or do you need me to tell you the answer?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Please, educate us all.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I'll throw you a bone. It has to do with precipitation. Now, when you educate me about those "Global Warming folks", we'll continue. Are they a well known group? How are they funded? |

There's no evidence to suggest that the droughts were man caused, but man's farming practices surely increased the severity of the dust storms. Then again, man's farming practices (at least here in the US) have raised ag production and made the US probably the leader in world food distribution. What the practices they used. Cut down all the trees that made wind breaks and plowed the land in the wrong direction. Allowed the wind to pick up lots more dirt. Unfortunately the newer farmers are returning to the same practices. |
