You're jumping the gun. Just because I don't look up much, doesn't mean that I don't look up at all. During my leisure time I do look up often, though leisure time is far outweighed by working time.

No, I'm indoors far more often than I would prefer.

Changes daily, sometimes hourly. It's grey right now.

In my opinion, when someone states their opinion that our current climate change is brought about mostly by natural factors, and then moves right into the costs and policies they find objectionable, it's pretty clear to me that their opinion isn't being guided by anything like evidence...people...

He's gone Emeritus. Dr. Lewis deserves some respect for work he has done, but not for his opinion on climate science. Want to know what's really ironic? Oh it's damned good irony too. Lewis rants in his letter about climategate and the fraud. If you remember your climategate mythology, we...

Well, if you would read the report, you would see how wrong you are. There is something to be said for willfull ignorance. Maybe it's you that needs help sleeping at night. The report, if you would be so intrepid as to actually read, agrees very much with the IPCC:

The reality they quoted is fine, I have no problem with that. The misrepresentation is the framing of those facts. I'm not entirely shocked that you would rather read misrepresentation than the actual source material. You really do love the taste of sand.

Ahh, so you think popularity is a good indicator of truth? That's a special kind of logical fallacy, called Ad populum. Nazism was popular in Germany, doesn't mean it was right. Slavery was popular too, doesn't mean it was right. The US also happens to lag the world in general knowledge about...

I'm going to do something almost as radical as Mentalfloss, and place the quotations from the Royal Society in context. [/B] I have no issues with this statement at all. Enhanced melting is poorly understood. The IPCC has underestimated the sea level rise drastically because they don't attempt...

No, I'm saying that your source misrepresented the context when they chose to cherry pick uncertainties, and ignore the conclusions. Par for the course.

I'm pretty sure if you google Captain Morgan's post, you'll find someone like Lawrence Soloman, or Terrence Corcoran on the other end. In fact let's see who the culprit is...ahh, it's from the Calgary Herald. It's the Herald who is misrepresenting the findings of the Royal Society. His...

Admitted? There is no reluctance on my part to state the truth. Again, it's demonstrable that these objects are still spinning. What you're spinning, is nonsense. We have...but consider doesn't mean we accept bad science, or anything that masquerades as science without evidence affirming the...

Right, only optically opaque gases to specific bandwidths of radiated energy. Gases whose covalent bonds resonate when struck by the energy at these specific bandwidths, and emit that energy back out so as to return to it's unexcited state.

It's demonstrably untrue; that is likely why most didn't accept the idea...

It's not an elevator of air, it's water. The North Atlantic Drift is what transports the heat. When the ice sheets melt, it's not that they stop the movement of air. Large amounts of cold fresh water disrupt the elevator, and thus the heat engine stops. Supposedly... But the probability of this...

What are you on about now? Venus and Mercury haven't stopped spinning...the spin is slow, but hasn't stopped.

The evidence is stacked against the authors. George Mason University is now investigating the allegations of plagiarism. University investigating prominent climate science critic - Science Fair: Science and Space News - USATODAY.com The report which was critical of the work of Mann, Bradley...

The Washington Post slams Virginia Auditor General Ken Cuccinelli for his fishing expedition: The attorney general’s logic is so tenuous as to leave only one plausible explanation: that he is on a fishing expedition designed to intimidate and suppress honest research and the free exchange of...

The predictions of Atlantic basin activity were very good....your article explains the lack of landfalling storms: "The United States had just been very lucky in not getting hit by a major hurricane." Lucky... Where a storm makes landfall isn't as predictable months in advance as your posts...

For the last time, post-harvest losses. They are immense. There are inefficiencies in every step of the agri-food chain. Some parts more so than others. I don't understand how someone who knows anything about farming could be ignorant of this... This is my last post in this thread on...
