without exception scum. Note that I am not talking about responsible

Are there any "douche bags" on the left?

Sure, but I don't spend any time listening to them, either. But there
are far more on the right, and they are far more successful, because
there is a large audience on the right for the sort of "put down crap"
delivered by the likes of Limbaugh, Coulter, Malkin, et al. The righties
apparently need their daily fix of hate.

Duh, you see many folks, just not the ones that need government grants.

There's no proof of global warming, it doesn't even make sense.


There you go, JAFM. A good example of "there's no proof that earth is
even warming at all", and right here in the NG. I wouldn't be
surprised to find that almost 1/3 of Americans agree with that
sentiment.

I disagree, to the point where I believe the earth is in a warming
trend. I also believe that warming and cooling trends have long been a
part of the natural cycle. My concern is that we might warm too much
and too quickly; and *if* that's a possibility we should be concerned.
I don't subscribe to the "it's all man's fault" school of thinking,
but neither am I prepared at this point to say that we are unable to
screw up the climate just as we have screwed up much of the rest of
our environment.

I think you should spend at least as much time listening to the left wing
douchbags as you do to the ones on the right (which, apparently, is a
significant amount). That would truly be the 'fair and balanced' thing to

Funny, I don't see a lot of folks in that camp, although the Global
Taxing advocates keep citing them. I guess sooner or later I will find
one. My best guess though is it is more of a talking point to
villanize the sceptics.. I guess however if you can keep the arguement
there, where there is really no arguement (weather the earth is
cycling hotter again or not) you don't have to address the very
credible science that says we are not causing it, it's just another
cycle...


I'm surprised you aren't seeing many folks in the "the earth isn't
even warming at all" category. I listen to right-wing talk shows on a
regular basis, (20-30 minutes, a couple of times per week). I have
heard some of the talk show hosts make the following statements, and
every time they do their screeners pass through the predictable 2-3
"confirming" callers that agree with whatever outrageous statement the
host made.


Two of my favorites heard within the last few months:


1. The liberals deliberately put the temperature probes used to
measure global heat trends in the hottest places they could find. Over
asphalt parking lots, on the sunny sides of brick buildings, etc.


2. There are a handful of glaciers actually *increasing* in size, and
if the whole earth was warming like the tax and spend liberals want us
to believe, then no glaciers would be able to grow.


(Sometimes there's a carefully selected individual scientist to add
some crediblity to the schtick).

warming is bullship".- Hide quoted text -

Some of my favorites are the two posts from people who claim extensive
scientific credentials, (but refuse to disclose their identity). Then
there's the guy who wrote: "He put is in charge of the garden, and I

Sounds very much like Bjorn Lomborg ( http://www.lomborg.com/cool_it/ ).

When the Senate held their hearings on Global Warming, in which Al Gore was

the great white north, and it's the greatest piece ever written!
Pretty selective, don't you think?


Every day 30,000 people on this planet die of the diseases of poverty
A third of the planet doesn't have electricity.
A billion people have no clean water.
A half a billion people going to bed hungry every night.


Since almost every action called for by the global warming alarmists will
make life even worse for all these people, why do assholes like you care
more about what *may happen* a 100 years in the future instead of paying
attention to what's going on now?


Your childish and low-life name calling shows that you aren't bright
enough to understand an intelligent response, or you're too narrow
minded.


Here, Loogy, same question for you but restated:

Nonsense. You must be celebrating at full steam already. :-)

The first paragragh is a statement that there is evidence as well as

The last paragraph you referenced is an expression of surprise that so
many people deny that the climate is changing at all.

Three concepts:

1. Some say man is causing climate change
2. Some say man is not causing climate change
3. Some say there is no climate change occuring

None of those are mutually exclusive.

There you go, JAFM. A good example of "there's no proof that earth is
even warming at all", and right here in the NG. I wouldn't be
surprised to find that almost 1/3 of Americans agree with that
sentiment.

I disagree, to the point where I believe the earth is in a warming
trend. I also believe that warming and cooling trends have long been a
part of the natural cycle. My concern is that we might warm too much
and too quickly; and *if* that's a possibility we should be concerned.
I don't subscribe to the "it's all man's fault" school of thinking,
but neither am I prepared at this point to say that we are unable to
screw up the climate just as we have screwed up much of the rest of
our environment.


Overall I agree with your assessment.

What is happening, though, is that the economic forces related to the
subject is going to hamstring Western economies to the point of deep
recession or even total depression.

The nubris exhibited by those who believe, despite historical and peer
reviewed evidence to the contrary, that mankind is totally responsible
is creating a whole disruption in the economy, stifling research into
alternative because the money that would normally be available by
grants, industrial research and even academic research is being
invested in making more money via commodity trading and whole new
economies trading carbon credits. The money supply needed to produce
new products and science is busy making money in monetary markets.

Which doesn't produce anything but money.

The rush to ethanol is creating a huge disruption in the food supply
chain. This morning I was down at the local farm taking some
picutures and conversed with the owner. He showed me his feed bill
for his milk cows and beef cattle - he's paying twice what he paid
last year and he can't hedge because his suppliers fully expect it to
double again before spring. He's seriously thinking of cutting back
on his herd because even though beef prices are rising, he can't
afford the same size herd because he can't feed them economically.

He can't even lock in seed corn prices for another three months -
right before planting season. Normally, he's locked in by now for
delivery in late March.

We're making a huge mistake with this whole rush to mitigate climate
change that we can't do anything about.

None of my observations (that people subscribe to each of those three
statements) are mutually exclusive. The statements themselves are
obviously mutually exclusive, but different individuals within a group
can simultaneously believe any of the three statements.


I see that a person could be in groups 2 and 3. I don't see how a person
could be in 1 and 2, or 1 and 3.

If I believed there is no such thing as global warming, then I would not
believe that man is causing global warming.


Phil Donohue got a train in Philly, heading for Pittsburgh at a steady
50 mph.
Brad Pitt got on a train in Pittsburgh heading to Philly at a steady
45 mph.
Both trains left at the same time.
Then why is Harrisburg the capital of PA?

There is evidence as well as scientific opinion on both sides of the
human-influence factor. Neither your side or the other should trot out
a single study and say "see, that settles it." (Not that you are).


It's amazing the number of people who not only deny that many could
ever have any influence on his global environment, but also insist
that the climate is *not* changing at all...........


You just contradicted your first paragraph and impugn your opinion as
fact by inference.


Nonsense. You must be celebrating at full steam already. :-)


The first paragragh is a statement that there is evidence as well as
scientific opinion of both sides of the human-influence factor.


The last paragraph you referenced is an expression of surprise that so
many people deny that the climate is changing at all.


Three concepts:


1. Some say man is causing climate change
2. Some say man is not causing climate change
3. Some say there is no climate change occuring


None of those are mutually exclusive.

The three concepts can exist simultaneously, and therefore are not
mutually exclusive. Nice site, though.


No comprende. Parse it out for me please.

1. Some people say "man is causing global warming". Whether we
individually agree the statement itself, there is little room for
debate that some people do, indeed, say that man is causing global
warming.


2. Some people say "Man is not causing global warming." Whether we
individually agree with the statement itself, there is little room for
debate that some people do, indeed, say that man is not causing global
warming.

Back up a step.

I'm not saying that the statements are wrong or right, only that
people believe each of the three ideas. That may be where Wally got
off the track as well, with his original critcism.

1. Some people believe the earth is round.
2. Some people believe the earth is flat.

The earth cannot be both round and flat, but different people can
simultaneously hold conflicting opinions regarding the shape of the
earth.

The statements:

1. The earth is round.
2. The earth is flat

*would be* contradictory, but preface each with "some people
believe......"
and both can be true at the same time.

It's hard to apply boolean (sp) logic to what you think you know about what
people believe. But it can certainly be applied to the existance of "global
warming". It either exists or it doesn't. Hence mutually exclusive.
You talk/write too much. ;-)
