I'll just believe it's getting warmer as we have another bitter cold winter here in ON.

I can imagine the ridicule if anyone said the converse of that in July.

Your herd will probably leave you alone though!

in our developing common ground :mrgreen:, I trust you appreciate there are some here who have absolutely no interest in genuine discussion. They are here only to: stir the shyte, insult and attack, bury legitimate discussion, foster a board culture that aligns with their most selective clubhouse mentality, attempt to marginalize perceived opponents and to generally disrespect the board and it's membership at large. I'm also not here to "win anonymous friends"!

Yep, a small minority, with the exception of one or two I don't have much problem, but then I don't have to be right about everything, if someone wants to be an A$$hole I can be a bigger one so just hand it back to them and move on. You'll always find one or two who will demand proof of everything you say- tell them to G.F.Y.S. It's a pretty dull world if every discuss is serious............a little humour is just like oil in an engine! :)

That was Zen, this is Tao.

Does 33% make a path to consensus?


Nice huh?

The Zen master smiled and said that they should discuss the matter over a cup of tea. When the tea was served the master poured his visitor a cup. He poured and he poured and the tea rose to the rim and began to spill over the table and finally onto the robes of the wealthy man. Finally the visitor shouted, “Enough. You are spilling the tea all over. Can’t you see the cup is full?”

The master stopped pouring and smiled at his guest. “You are like this tea cup, so full that nothing more can be added. Come back to me when the cup is empty. Come back to me with an empty mind.”

which means nothing to me as I won't read anything from that degenerate.

Does that mean you won't be my Facebook friend?

The AGW cup of bullsh-t is full. I can agree with that?

97% of 33%.

97% of 33% is far from a consensus. In fact, using it is lying. Lying to others and worst of all, yourself.

The lie was good enough for them. The alarmists are sticking to the 97% lie and the sheep will follow.

This point isn't even worth arguing.

Like most of the denire "points" actually, but they do get good mileage out of them. Apparently we've been in a pause for the last 20 years. Oh, and all the numbers of fudged. So...you're saying the guys fudging the numbers have fudged a pause then? Or...?

:lol:

Well zipper, are you going to explain where the 97 percent comes from or are you just going to dance like Waldo does.

buddy, you didn't have a clue what the consensus was... yet you called bullshyte out of the chute! I just put together a fairly detailed post that speaks to what the consensus actually is. Somehow... you're prepared to gloss right over that and reply like you've just done. Is that your, as you say, "dance"? Who gives a flying fack if you accept the consensus, or not - you're a freakin' denier!


thank you for your Locutus Brand of moderation

Because the 97% lie was shot down months ago by yours truly and gerryh being the smart fella he is understands how and why the lie was created and is still being spread.

Looked in a mirror have you? Perhaps, with a bit of luck when you reach adulthood you will understand that there is more to a discussion than C&P from dubious sources.
