Panel: Finding climate fingerprints in wild weather is valid

WASHINGTON Climate science has progressed so much that experts can accurately detect global warming’s fingerprints on certain extreme weather events, such as a heat wave, according to a high-level scientific advisory panel.

[Dark Knight]

It is really not “science” if they are not using their models to predict events, not find fingerprints on events that fit their model...

Do they also check for fingerprints on events that don’t fit their model?

I hope I live long enough to see this charade fully exposed.

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?

Is fraternal consensus of all Progressive scientists, Natasha! Forward! Smash the capitalists, and on to the People's victory!

.... etc., etc., Commie bullsh*t, Commie bullsh*t. More Prog b.s. from the fraternal Prog b.s. artists, "Is consensus of ALL Progressive scientists, Natasha!"

"Progressive scientists demand!" Etc. etc.

This is so .... 1968. They ought to trot out Danny the Red and Angela Davis to front this crap. At least it'd be mildly entertaining, like nostalgia TV.

Weather events that run counter to the latest proposed pattern for global warming are just random events and only idiot deniers would try to cite random events to counter settled science.

Oh, nice! If I were still a reader of the 'Rat- and queer-infested Houston Chronicle, I could expect to see that one in print any day now, spewed out with a straight face and a promise that some day deniers will be affirmatively punished for doing the evil work of evil Exxon and evil Shell Oil and evil ChevronTexaco.

So much evil, so few fraternal firing squads, so little time!

So...what happened to the Ice Age? Fred Flintstone’s SUV?

How can scientists link an extreme weather event to just 0.00136% of the atmosphere? They haven't' even been able to explain how just 0.00136% of our atmosphere is capable of capturing and holding enough heat to warm the globe let alone linking such an insignificant amount of CO2 to extreme weather events!

It comes from human arrogance in thinking that we are so VERY important in the patterns of earthly weather.

THAT is the petroleum we use.

We can just make things up.

This ain’t science. “Goosed” is not a scientific term.
