Ok… so here’s a similar story for you. A few years ago, I was delayed on a connecting flight and went to one of the airport bars for a beer…. ended up sharing a bar table with a very good looking young lady. We were both there for several hours and must have touched on a dozen subjects when the subject of glowbull warming came up. She said she wasn’t sure what to think but told me that her boyfriend was all over this subject and he was sure that the planet was in big trouble. I looked at her and said something to the effect of “glowbull warming is a complete scam but here is why this subject is critical to you… you apparently have a serious boyfriend who has been sucked in by this fraud and you have to ask yourself this… if he is this gullible to get sucked in that easily on this issue, what other frauds am I going to have to endure for the rest of my life if I marry this guy? Don’t even think about it…. you need to ditch this guy NOW.” She looked at me and after a long pause said “you know, I think you’re absolutely right…. I’ll seriously consider what you’ve said.” We chatted some more until she had to catch a flight…. No sooner had she left than a fellow who had been sitting at a nearby table stop by and say “I’ve overhead many a conversation in a bar but that was the most sensible thing I’ve ever heard.”
I gave a talk at an AMS (American Meteorological Society) one time and got into a big argument afterwards with Bill Reed, former director of the NHC-who is a big libtard and global warming guy. Didn’t go well. He thinks all the warm periods (that show the warm periods being hotter than we are currently) of the past were local and not global. He challenged me to produce one peer reviewed paper that showed they were anything other than a local phenomenon
So-I went back to my office and came up with three in a matter of 30 minutes. One from tree ring samples in the Amazon, two from core samples in the Pacific.
He rejected their findings. I replied: “you didn’t ask for something you would agree with-the point was you said none existed”
You can’t debate these people with science-and you can’t convince their minions. It’s a cult.
