you could say the same thing about millions of people. Using your apparent measure, who dreams of becoming, for example, a retail grocery clerk... or a shelf-stocker, or a retail cashier... or a butcher... or a cab-driver, or a bus-driver, or a brazillion other legitimate and worthy jobs that we all depend on? But again, you take it even further, you double-down on your pompous self-grandiosity by choosing to label others, in a denigrating/derogatory manner, with a job descriptor you clearly resent and feel is beneath you. Respectively, grow up... be happier!
oh snap! That's a zinger, particularly since I care soooo much about what you think!
Obviously you do. You keep asking me to be friends, and you keep looking for my attention.
Which would be fine if they didn't expect someone else to pay for the koolaid. OTH it just might be worth a few bucks to aid in the dispatch of freeloaders.
I love that gag... Not only do you truthers lean on that very same principle when convenient, but are also myopic enough to ignore the direct relationship between the 2.
You should probably read that. Says right in there that data has been "corrected" for a variety reasons. Therefore it is not data any more but someone's interpretation. Something along the line of Lies, Damm Lies and Statistics.
no - all data adjustments are backed by peer-reviewed/peer-responded scientific publications describing and qualifying the respective adjustments. What do you have next... conspiracy?
so you have examples; apparently, you're unwilling to state/provide... your examples. Go figure.
Peer review hasn't worked-out all that well.... East Anglia and the IPCC kinda blew that deal to smithereens
The majority of my friends are ticketed tradesmen
Emphasis on ticketed.
A loser uneducated drywall peer inspecting your drywall work means you did a stellar job or it's up to snuff according to the loser peer?

Crackdown on Drywall Scams
Cochran & Wicker Seek Federal Action to Protect Consumers from Dubious Drywall Fixes
WASHINGTON – U.S. Senators Thad Cochran and Roger Wicker today joined in asking the federal government to help protect Mississippi consumers from companies and individuals offering questionable solutions for contaminated drywall imported from China.
In a letter to Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Chairman Jon Leibowitz, the Mississippi Senators joined in formally asking the FTC to investigate companies and individuals offering drywall solutions even as federal agencies continue to study the causes of the tainted drywall problem, as well as recommended testing and remediation protocols.
“We believe that the Federal Trade Commission has an important role to play in preventing companies from taking advantage of homeowners who are desperate for solutions to this problem,” said the letter signed by Cochran and Wicker and other Senators.
In the last 20 months, 1,900 cases—many from the Gulf Coast—have been reported regarding serious metal corrosion, noxious fumes and health concerns preliminarily linked to defective Chinese drywall.* The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are currently conducting comprehensive tests to identify problem substances in the drywall.* Test results are expected to be announced later this month.
“Homeowners in our states are already struggling to deal with the health and property issues related to the defective drywall.* We believe that these impacted homeowners should not be further victimized by spending additional funds on remediation or preliminary testing not approved or endorsed by the federal government or any state agency,” stated the letter that was authored by Louisiana Senator Mary Landrieu.* In addition to Cochran and Wicker, other signees included David Vitter (R-La.), Senators Jim Webb and Mark Warner (both D-Va.), and Senator Ben Nelson (D-Neb.).
“As we work together with the designated federal and state agencies to develop real solutions to the problems created by contaminated drywall, it is important that the FTC ensure that homeowners are protected from companies seeking to make fast money off the misfortune of these homeowners,” the Senators wrote.
Following well-publicized reports detailing the problems with defective Chinese drywall, companies and individuals have announced and advertised “solutions” for affected homeowners.* These solutions promise testing procedures to identify Chinese drywall or remediation protocols that claim to completely remove the product from homes.* Some companies have even advertised that they are part of a national certification program, despite the fact that the federal government has yet to fully determine the exact substances in this faulty product.
Cochran and Wicker said Mississippians concerned about drywall in their homes can visit the Drywall Information Center website, which provides information on the problem and how to report cases to authorities.* The site is hosted by the CPSC, EPA, Centers for Disease Control and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

As of late October, the CPSC had received 1,900 incident reports from 30 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico.
in your hackergate dreams! You sure have that ready go-to UEA, ever at hand! Have you ever been asked to substantiate your peer-review nonsense, and have you done so?
