    Plight of the Polar Bears...Warming in the Actic,

    Ain't that the truth. Using two ply rolls made of recycled paper is pretty cool, though. Recycled paper is cheaper than regular.

    Socialists in a Panic

    What if they told you something obvious like winter wasn't over in Canada and you should keep your long johns on? Would you leap into your Bermuda shorts and t-shirt and go to the beach right then? Would you just leap to the ASSumption that they're full of it without checking it out?

    Socialists in a Panic

    Really. :roll: The things get old, cracked and shrink eventually anyway, which leaves little crevices that toothbrushes can't get into in order to remove plaque. :roll:The last I heard is that if the asbestos is causing grief, then it's removed. Same with fillings. That's not news and what has...

    Socialists in a Panic

    Those values in that graph aren't temps, Extrafire. That is a graph of ANOMALIES of temps. They are mostly on the positive side and that means the change in temperatures are warming. :roll: Concerning the manipulation of data, so what if there's 1 reading in 50 that's weird and says 40 C at...

    The Climate Summit in Copenhagen Must Be Cancelled!

    Cleaning up the backyard is a start, as I mentioned earlier. The biggest change would be to pressure business into changing its attitude of profit over people and life in general.

    Plight of the Polar Bears...Warming in the Actic,

    I might add that although polar bear numbers are up, their disease rate is also up, and their size is down. Basically, what we have engineered is a large population of predators into smaller, diseased, partial scavengers. I feel really proud. :(

    Sunspots: Sunspots: Modern Research 1 of 7 Fog: Just About Everything You Wanted to Know about Fog Fog is just plain obvious to anyone with an inkling of and idea about climatology, meteorology, or just plain sense. Watch a video clip filmed in IR of a pot of water coming to a boil sometime.

    The Climate Summit in Copenhagen Must Be Cancelled!

    Pretty much. Change the attitude and awareness and being clean becomes a habit. One should start in his/her own backyard.

    The Climate Summit in Copenhagen Must Be Cancelled!

    You know, these people that decide which is an annex 1 country really don't seem to have their noggins sewed on straight. China is about $2 trillion US in debt and has assets estimated at about $7 trillion, the USA is heading for 13 trillion in debt and about 50 trillion in assets, yet it's an...

    The Climate Summit in Copenhagen Must Be Cancelled!

    lol I know. I was kidding. My anthro prof and a couple of us went up to the Chilcotin to identify some bones an old farmer/trapper guy had found. He suggested after we IDed the bones that we college types fix his radio. lol Jim bought him a new one. :D

    Me either. But we already give an awful lot to underdeveloped countries now. I can't see giving them more speeding up their development much. China isn't poor, it should bloody well know better than to allow its rate of pollution.

    I don't know about pole reversal. Perhaps Dexter or Tonington or one of the bright guys here could do that one.
