    Hmm, the contiguous US, and the last decade. So the claims actually say nothing about global warming, and nothing about global climate change. But fake skeptics probably won't notice the difference. Here's a good examination of Curry's claims, read it and weep fake skeptical beaver:Judith Curry...

    69% think it's likely that some nerd changed the number on you last Monday JLM. It was really -10C, the nerd switched the sign on you.

    It's all magic dim rodent...even you could perform this experiment, though you're so far into conspiracy non-reality that you will likely call shenanigans on yourself for this voodoo: Pico Technology Experiment: Global Warming :lol:

    The theory was invented to explain a difference that the article claims Hansen declared. The claim is implicit. And the physics most definitely are there, it goes far back to the links I supplied to you.

    I think you may have broken your own record. Can't even get the first sentence, let alone the first paragraph out without being completely and utterly wrong. What a horrid bit of writing. James Hansen did not invent greenhouse gas theory. Educate yourself:

    Your favourite cookbook....

    Epicurious.com is a great recipe website. I have one my mother made for me, she wrote out many of my favourite dishes she made, and placed them in plastic sleeves in a binder she titled Mom's Morsels. Love those recipes. I have quite a few now myself, like Italian, Thai, Soups, etc. Slow-cooker...

    Farmers were harvesting cabbage in January, here in PEI. Very late, conditions were good. Absolutely, but if you're comparing temperatures from one year to another, then ideally you would want to be comparing macintosh to macintosh, not macintosh to red delicious.

    Environment Canada has historical climate data, but it's hard to know which station to use, gore doesn't list where he's from. He did mention Alberta, are you thinking of Alberta's 1958 winter, or BC's? Anyways, comparing two winters is pretty much meaningless in a discussion of climate...

    You're the gambler...deny it all you want but you are not playing the odds. There is only so much response, and there is already a well characterized grouping of forcings impacting the imbalance inside our atmosphere. You are basically pinning your money on a long shot. That's the gamble. You're...

    No, I'm not, which is why I wouldn't side with a hypothesis like that when the amount of variation left when accounting for the various forcing factors is so small. Perhaps you could explain with your knowledge of the electric hypothesis how the greenhouse effect is confounded by the electric...

    Garbage. If the mechanism didn't work, they would say it didn't work, not that the magnitude is overestimated, again assuming that whatever you posted is even true. Try finding that work Beaver. Otherwise, tell yourself whatever you need to to make your toy electric universe hypothesis work.

    Supposing for the moment that this alleged work showed that the depletion rate was overestimated by an order of magnitude, it would in no way invalidate the mechanism of CFC-driven ozone depletion. All it would mean is that the magnitude of the mechanism was overestimated. Invalidated? Jeez...

    Now that it's 2012, I have a word or two about doomsdays

    First, it's good to see you back here. A long hiatus, hope all is well :D As for the doomsday stuff, I guess we don't really need artificial intelligence to destroy us, there's plenty of genuine stupidity to go around for destruction purposes.

    Story of the Year ?

    Rex is listening in on callers for his Cross Country Checkup program. In the short trip to the corner store I heard Canadians mention the election and death of Jack Layton, a Vancouver man interested in the buying up of properties by Asians (particularly Chinese, was that you Dumpy?), and a man...
