Global Warming on Free Republic
Yes, profanity will certainly get the point across . . . that they’re petty tyrant wannabes, maybe.
DANG!
FUBAR?
LOL - great post.
Great tagline!
I really do not understand why that word would even be allowed on FR
frikken fracking
Physicist Howard Hayden's one-letter disproof of global warming claims [pre-Climategate]Dear Administrator Jackson:
I write in regard to the Proposed Endangerment and Cause or Contribute Findings for Greenhouse Gases Under Section 202(a) of the Clean Air Act, Proposed Rule, 74 Fed. Reg. 18,886 (Apr. 24, 2009), the so-called "Endangerment Finding."
It has been often said that the "science is settled" on the issue of CO2 and climate. Let me put this claim to rest with a simple one-letter proof that it is false.
The letter is s, the one that changes model into models. If the science were settled, there would be precisely one model, and it would be in agreement with measurements.
Alternatively, one may ask which one of the twenty-some models settled the science so that all the rest could be discarded along with the research funds that have kept those models alive.
We can take this further. Not a single climate model predicted the current cooling phase. If the science were settled, the model (singular) would have predicted it.
(excerpted from Professor Hayden's letter to Lisa P. Jackson, Administrator Environmental Protection Agency. More at link.)
This rebuttal of the Climate Liars brought to you by the letter S.
The Earth has been getting warmer or colder for 4 billion years. The only constant in Earths environment is change. It will continue to change till it’s consumed by the Sun.
Man has been on earth .00075% of Earth’s age or 300,000 years.
Earth will continue to change after man is long gone.
The universe is dynamic. Suns supernova, galaxies collide, planets are formed and lost in black holes daily.
Man is merely a brief observer, not the cause.
Lol, I checked for the 'parody' tag on that article. Al Gore is the 'freaking fool of forecast fables'.
It’s not, but nobody does anything about it anymore. You’ve been here longer than me and will remember when crude curse words were never used.
Time went by and newcomers started sneaking them in and some of the old timers started following suit. I am most disturbed by the number of women who use a lot of bad language. Nobody’s fooling anyone by leaving a letter or two out.
Years ago there was a Moderator who posted an article around Christmas time. ‘She’ said curse words would not be tolerated and “don’t think ‘acronyms’ will fool anybody”. I have the thread bookmarked ‘somewhere’! The problem is that no one pushes ‘abuse’ anymore because there’s too much of it happening now.
I would call it a form of Disconfirmed expectancy
Disconfirmed expectancy is a psychological term for what is commonly known as a failed prophecy. According to the American social psychologist Leon Festinger's theory of cognitive dissonance, disconfirmed expectancies create a state of psychological discomfort because the outcome contradicts expectancy. Upon recognizing the falsification of an expected event an individual will experience the competing cognitions, "I believe [X]," and, "I observed [Y]." The individual must either discard the now disconfirmed belief or justify why it has not actually been disconfirmed. As such, disconfirmed expectancy and the factors surrounding the individual's consequent actions have been studied in various settings.

That's it. It's how science works - it's how products work. When there's 'an answer' all other options fall by the wayside.
Frost. Like I scraped off my windows in East Tennessee on November 3rd. Thanks, global warming.
