In other news...I predict an emergency project...bigger and more important than the “Manhattan Project” in Trump’s second term to prepare for the ice age.

Something that will harness the power of cow farts?

Yes this will greatly interfere with global warming. The ocean levels will fall some 400 feet on average with drops of 700 feet not unexpected depending on seabed slopes, while the northern and southern continents take up the water in the form of ice which is expected to reach depths exceeding 3 kilometers on average.

There are two outcomes of this newly discovered climate alteration, or rather cycle: one is that in several thousand years the ice will melt, or that the ice will continue to grow covering the entire planet (Snowball Earth). Both of these outcomes have been repeated throughout geologic time.

Pick one ...

They will pivot and argue that we must redouble our efforts to combat global warming to prevent a catastrophic rise in temperatures once the solar cycle returns to a more active pattern.

This won’t help win the argument, as it’s not about science.

And I would have got away with, too, it if it wasn't for that meddlesome Sun!

"Their elaborate model calculations are supplying a robust estimate of the contribution that the sun is expected to make to temperature change in the next 100 years. For the first time, a significant effect is apparent."

Wow!!! The warmists have figured out that the sun effects climate for the first time. These guys are real geniuses.

Note also, the key use of the word 'robust'. That's to make you think the authors are really really smart. It's true, though, that the global warming theory is a very 'robust' theory, for EVERY observation of weather conclusively proves the theory (to the true believers).

Dont worry folks, I have 2 RZ500 Yamaha 2 Stroke Motorcycles that spew massive amounts of CO2, I will ride both of them today and fly my Airplane for a couple hours to make up the difference.

I might be interested in taking one of those RZ500’s off your hands if your interested in selling one.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

Unfortunately you will have to wait til I die before my Wife can sell any of my toys. I have 2 RD 400’s also. There was an RZ500 on Ebay a couple weeks ago, but it sold fast.

if you put a wanted ad on rzrd500.com there is a good chance you can find one, but it won’t be easy, and you CAN NOT Import them anymore, so make sure it is titled already in the US. Plan on spending 10-15K

——will meet in Davos for a conference-—

There you have it.

The reason for the work is to go to conferences. Meeting in lavish hotels with the stops pulled out is justification for a drab, dingy life.

Conferences are a reason for promoting progressive causes

I’m confused...should I listen to this moronic liberal...or the last one who said global warming is affecting the solar system...

On a scale of 0 to 100 the impact on Earth’s temperature:
CO2 = 0.2
Methane = 2
Water vapor = 5
Sun = 92.8

Methane is actually a climate stabilizer. Limits the big temperature swings.
Almost every time the left has a global warming meeting, it snows. And now this. Who said God doesn’t have a sense of humor.

What concerns me about this is the 'models'...the biggest hole in the whole
AGW hoax is that the models are crap...should deniers such as we gladly
accept this new model because it coincides with our argument? This
reminds me of something I read on Scott Adams' blog last week where he
stated that he doesn't believe the AGW myth mainly because man-made
models are always shown to be absolutely wrong in predicting the future.

"What concerns me about this is the 'models'"

I have spent more than a half-century using computer models to solve problems. (Starting with a model of a posi-traction car axle using a vacuum tube analog computer.) I always followed the philosophy that "all models are inaccurate, though some are useful."

The Global Circulation Models used by the CAGW tribe are simply not useful. They simply fail to accurately calculate what they are purported to show.

I see Gary Schumake from Spec2 every week, he still holds the Drag Bike 1/4 mile record on his H2. 132 mph in the quarter,4th gear. never could hit 5th.

Agreed...I use a lot of modeling for semi-conductor design in my
work...they are fairly reliable but only have a dozen vectors of variables or
so to contend with...a climate model has to deal with thousands of such
vectors...a lot of which the climate scientists don't entirely understand.
Then throw in that they are biasing the numbers to get a preconceived
result so that they can keep their funding and you get the AGW hoax.

Old school statistics taught that it was not applicable for complex systems with many variables like, climate, surveys/polls,

AND

statistics NEVER gave you an answer, at best, another question.
