Yep, and congrats to him for his award and commitment, regardless of whether global warming is indeed, man induced. 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 whenyou 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? Whatever.. |
