lol Skipped a few science classes? W armer molecules vaporize easier. More space between molecules allows for more molecules. It's why you can dissolve sugar easier in hot coffee than cold coffee.

Fascinating. And I suppose you think the Czech prez is an expert on climate? "Death knell for AGW". lmao Funny thing that the planet is paying no attention to death knells and people's opinions. Researchers keep coming up with data, some people pay attention to the data, some people ignore the...

... for growing stuff on :)

Funny stuff. Good thing sensible people hinge their opinions on evidence and research rather than polls.

Yeah, I know. I don't think the world is doing that either, but it is changing and we have added to the change in more ways than just GHGs.

Ah, I see. Still, I was considering that Loc, being a skeptic about climate warming, probably posted the article thinking it would deflate pro-GW types. In fact, as I pointed out, not only does the researcher in her article acknowledge human intervention in climate, but added that just by...

I'm not so sure. Even in winter there's a noticeable difference between the temps in the local towns and the temps in the rural areas. Summer temps are even more amplified. So like I said, forests and marshes and whatnot are simply cooler than increasing urban areas concerning surface temps (the...

Um, development, IMO, is not the best idea. And in order to keep a growing global population, development is necessary. That's why I think "sustainable development" is a bad idea. I would much prefer sustainable stability.

ooops Guess I was reading in a hurry.

Good point. This climate researcher brings up another aspect; other sources of human-caused increases in climate temps. But either way, she is saying that human activities are boosting warming just by developing areas. Makes sense. Forests and such are usually cooler than parking lots and...

Math problem: 11,605 employees driving 9,516 vehicles is NOT 1.2 vehicles per person. It's 1.2 people per vehicle. roflmao

Teen, 3 kids killed in train-van crash from Alberta, Saskatchewan http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/story/2012/08/10/sk-broadview-fatal-crash-1207.html

Some dude died near at a local music fest here over the weekend. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/story/2012/08/13/bc-man-dies-shambhala.html

Oh, well. It's not so bad here. temps maxed out at 38 so far this summer. It's a bit more humid than past years, though.

Spoken from experience?

Yep. Raw data doesn't make adjustments. It's just interpretations that vary from extreme to extreme..

with home grown veggies and stuff, yep.

Wendy's, McD's, BK, etc. can offer whatever they want. Doesn't mean I or wifey will eat it.
