Yes I saw this a few months ago. But like temperatures, populations fluctuate (except for human pops). But, - http://www.arctic.noaa.gov/essay_schliebe.html. So one group may be exploding in numbers when others dwindle. North America has only about 35% of them. But it is kinda neat that the...

I know that oil companies won't be disappearing anytime soon and gov'ts are in the habit of screwing things up. The only one I have noticed actually helping people help themselves is the Yukon gov't. The others seem to want to punish people into "going green". Anyway, it was just an example I...

Species evolve, devolve, speciate, hybidize, and some go extinct naturally, I know. I am not a biologist and don't know enough about all the species to say which will evolve quickly enough to temperature changes and which won't. I'm more into the psychology than the physiology. But I am sure...

Someone would have found where you got it and pasted the link to it anyway. Using someone else's article without attribution is plagiarism and I just love finding out where people get there cutnpastes. lol No biggie. I didn't compare you to the newsmedia, I simply said we get enough of it from...

Well, July was pretty cool here and it looked like it was going to be a cool summer. Then in the 1st week of August, we started getting some of the highest temps we have ever had. So much for what things LOOK like. :roll:

Me, too.Doesn't help that the newsmedia blow everything out of proportion either, which makes matters worse. I am not terribly upset about species disappearing because others will evolve or generate I am sure. Eventually. Some time. And who needs polar bears anyway? We need more of the really...

You might be right about why the "hoax", if it is a hoax, was designed, but then I can see different businesses benefiting. IE, get rid of an oil company and a solar energy company pops up. Or get rid of a company that builds vehicles with internal combustion engines and one pops up building...

Any evidence for this opinion? Temperature change can exacerbate quite a few situations that are already critical. Anyway, I am not surprised that some places may show increased activity in generation of life. Warm up the arctic and watch the vegetation rate increase. Oh hhhmmmm, I guess we may...

ANY species like that? "Any" is a pretty broad term. Quite right. Some people like me believe that because we've seen evidence of it. I can understand you rebutting evidence like that because I have seen you cherry pick through an article to find the info you like to see. Seems to me there was...

Yeah, that's another funny thing. Some people tend to cherrypick an article for the info they want to see and leave out important related info they don't like. That's called editorializing and we get enough of it from the newsmedia. I know I am right. I just thought I would be diplomatic and...

I can't get the link to work. Anyway, from an article on June 18: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/7461707.stm another from Aug. 1: http://www.nationalpost.com/news/story.html?id=695981 Maybe the heat that is melting it is localized to the arctic and not the rest of the planet...

Funny, I was given to understand that some species are highly sensitive to temperature change of even fractions of degrees.

lol Speaking of being amused, I am still chuckling that someone still thinks religion came up with (3rd post page 5): So even the religions themselves aren't aware that it was they and not I. Newton, C. Darwin, and S. Carnot respectively that came up with the law of gravity, the theory of...

hehehe Took me a while to actually realize what "nothing meant", too, Towering Tonington :D. Once you take EVERYTHING from an area and put it into your little quark-sized thimble, there isn't even an area left. But now I think it's just cool. The other realization that kinda shook me a little...

lol Sounds fine by me, Dex. Unlike that other guy, I CAN be gracious and accept that not everyone should have to give my subjects tithes, obey my rules even if I don't, etc. Also, unlike the other guy, I am not a myth and being only homo sapiens, do not expect people to believe fantasies are...

Well. I am a god because I say so using my fluency and eloquence of the English language then.[/LEFT]

Ever heard of a thing called chance? wow And you actually passed med school? Do you shake a rattle and cast spells warding off evil and wear a grass skirt? Take a look at the history of earthquakes and you'll find they occur in many other places besides cities. Lemme see *inspects...

Who says so?[/FONT][/SIZE][/LEFT] [LEFT][SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman] So it is fables then.There is nothing wrong with fables. What is wrong is that some people believe them to be factual and take them literally.

Well, I am content with guiding myself with the help of a few other people. I have no need for the belief in some fictitious entity and especially that of some book written by fallible humans about some fictitious being..
