You are mistaken. They've always been here.

This is nonsense. The major control on pine beetle is food supply. When their food is abundant and available they multiply accordingly. The existance of pine trees is the abundant part, but that isn't enough in itself, there also has to be a considerable amount of weak trees in order to get...

Oh, now that's incorrect! The mainstream media are almost exclusively on the alarmist side. In Canada (to my knowledge) only the National Post presents both sides, and in the US it's Fox. There may be others but I haven't yet heard of them.

Once again you have attempted to deflect the conversation from what I said. This particular topic was a response to Anna's post which said, "Olly the Ostrich say, 'Earth hasn't warmed.'" My response was "Uhmmm, I just can't think of anyone who's claimed the earth hasn't warmed." Now you've...

When prominent papers (used to support international policy) are shown to be faudulent, that alone should be enough to require investigation of all papers that reach the same conclusions. When climate scientists are shown to be resisting attempts to check their data (in contradiction to common...

Well I've looked at your links and while they seem convincing, I decline to purchase the report(s) and examine the data and methodology. That's beyond the scope of my abilities or time and I'll leave that to those who can best analyze the findings, such as Steve McIntyre et al. However, even...

When have you ever known me to run?

A quick perusal of Singer's article is much more informative than the title. I myself will also state that global warming isn't happening, but that statement must be taken in its context, the timeframe. Currently the trend is stasis, or even a slight cooling. However, the overall trend since the...

I haven't had time to check out your posts. I will respond, perhaps this weekend.

Nonsense! When there is considerable evidence that a considerable faction of climate scientists may have committed fraud, it's perfectly reasonable to do an investigation to see if missuse of public funds has taken place. How else to do that other than to audit all concerned? Those who are...

Now don't get your knickers in a knot, dear. As I stated above, I have no problem with the joke. In fact, I'll go farther, I appreciate them. I've posted a few myself. You're stretching this out a bit far. You told me to check out Walter's posts if I wanted to know if your comment was...

I must have missed the part of investigating scientists who use grants. I'll have to go back and see if it's there....... .....looking...... ....Oh, there it is, right at the bottom. That's it??? What part of requiring accountability over the missuse of government funds could possibley...

Nope. He's quite prolific and I don't spend all that much time here so I miss quite a few. But you're the one making the claim so it's not up to me to verify it, it's up to you to back it up. I have no problem with jokes. But it's the false attrilbution that rankles. Actually, when the...

I asked for any example of someone who says "the earth hasn't warmed". The only reason I brought it up at all is because the most common tactic used against the "deniers" is to attribute to them, claims that "the earth hasn't warmed" when their actual claim is that humans have had little, if...

Well I went and looked at post #4 and all I could deduce was that it was claiming that the warming seems to have stopped for now. Not the same thing as "the world hasn't warmed", and everyone agrees that the warming has paused, even the scientists at the CRU.

Walter pastes lots of articles on the AGW scam but I've never seen any post of his claiming that the earth hasn't warmed. Perhaps you could direct me to one?

Uhmmm, I just can't think of anyone who's claimed the earth hasn't warmed. To whom do you refer?

You consider prosecuting someone for fraud to be McCarthyism??8O

Oh, by the way, seems there's been a subsequent developement. Emphasis mine. Notice the same author at the bottom of your article. Here's another comment on the same subject: World Climate Report » Antarctic Ice Melt at Lowest Levels in Satellite Era

Except that that's where the person who constructed it decided to locate it. Yeah, we've already established that.:roll: Which is pretty much a given, considering what I've already said. All one needs to do is look a the graph to realize that. Duh. I already said that. What are you getting...
