sixofnine,
:The sad thing is that some people, some very very stupid people, take things like this as evidence that global warming is not happening.
I'm very, very stupid then. On the other hand, I've read reams of information on the subject (being as concerned about the matter as very, very smart people like you) and don't see convincing evidence about global warming. I see LOTS of convincing evidence about carbon credits SOLVING the problem by moving money around and the zillions of dollars they will generate for Al Gore and his ilk.
But I keep looking for evidence and am willing to hear it all, on BOTH sides.
But then again, I am very, VERY stupid as you said. So what does a dumb schmuck like me know?
My reading of history and living as an adult through a whole bunch of these crises, tells me that in the 1970's, global warming wasn't even on the radar, but global COOLING was! We are supposed to be in an ice age now based upon those experts. I guess we are in an ice age now, with lots of global warming going on, too. Ummmm... Those two things might just cancel each other out and make our climate NORMAL! We were all supposed to have skin cancer from the huge and apocalyptic holes in the Ozone Layer(tm). But mysteriously, no one has mentioned that problem for YEARS, just as no one has mentioned a few other sticky little past problems like Acid Rain(tm), world famine and the new and better Paradise Earth(tm) which as well all know is even more certain that global warming(tm).
But of course, I'm just one of the many stupid ones, which by your definition means I beg to disagree with your masturbation fantasies even though I've heard and evaluated arguments from both sides and just by the odd fate of chance happened to come to a different conclusion from yours.
