Could this have anything to do with it.

It's very obvious that global warming began with widespread condom usage. All that extra friction will destroy us.

Thanks for the post.

However, please try and keep the news about the earth's magnetic field under wraps if you don't mind.  Ozone hole dilates-- got to be my fault and I have to give someone money.   Ice age late, ditto.  Lord only know what kind of crisis they'll make of the magnetic field collapsing (hard hats everyone!!).

Junk science! 70% of all the so called scientists that signed the "global warming" document are not climatologists, or even scientists. 70% of the signers were “liberal” medical doctors who had never taken one single course in weather measurements. The real doctor of climatologists’ assays was neglected in favor of junk science by gynecologist liberal environmental nutcases.

How difficult is it to recognize that taking temperature measurements from a weather balloons above the surface of the earth is more accurate than taking temperature measurements at the surface where the asphalt and concrete have great influence on the readings?

Global warming is a reality but it's all part of cyclic earth changes driven primarily by (1) Sun activity (i.e. sun spots and coronal ejections) which has a huge effect on underwater volcanic activity, (2) The earth's magnetic field which waxes and wanes in very long cycles (see NYT article posted today), (3) Space weather which is variable and unpredictable and places the earth at risk from asteroids and comets from far-flung regions of space, and (4) Ocean currents like El Nino which move millions of miles of sea water (and fresh water from melting ice caps) and dramtically effect weather patterns on all the continents.

I believe personally we are now in the late stages of a 60 year global warming period and will soon be entering a period of rapid global cooling. The last time this happened on earth was about 11,500 years ago. When global cooling begins to happen it will happen rather quickly (do you recall mastadons quick frozen eating wild flowers?).

SUV's and fossil fuels contributed slightly to global weather shifts but not all that much. An argument can be made that we all would have been better off if Detroit had stopped engineering design improvements with the "flat head V-8 engine" because we would not be so dependent on Middle East oil. Oh, well . . . Time marches onward.

To find out more about severe weather shifts go see "The Day After Tomorrow" which has broken records world wide and has sold over $ 530 million tickets. The film exaggerates the weather cycle scenario but is rather eye-opening.

The planet earth lives its own cyclical life as it travels through space like a huge space ship. We are just along for the ride like fleas on a sleeping cat.

Everything is in God's hands and subject to his will.

no.

Fascinating contrast to creationism/evolution, where basically no creationist scientists are paleontologists, and very very few are actual biologists.

The theory of anthropogenic global warming: Carbon dioxide has increased by about 30% in the atmosphere since the beginning of the industrial revolution. This figure is not in doubt. A simple model of the Earth's atmosphere indicates this much more C02 should cause a degree of warming. Climatologists are now using some of the most powerful supercomputers available, to build and run much more sophisticated models of the climate.

The official line (by the scientists directly involved in the research) is that global warming is real and it may be in part caused by humans. I think the jury is still out on global warming, but I think it's a bit blithe to assume this is just junk science. It won't be like that movie, but you'd hate for the drought out west to be permanent. (That's the kind of thing that climate change could cause.) This is why I'm a big fan of nuclear power.

I would not dismiss shifting magnetic fields so quickly. The "magnetic" North Pole has shifted dramatically in the past 40 years. Now it is not situated on the North Pole but is a few miles inside the Canadian border. Ask any Boy Scout leader.

Hold on to your hat. We may be in for a wild ride in the next ten years. Just my humble opinion. Flame away.

The Electoral College has three practical effects.

Easy for you to say, but in 300,000 years some mentally defective person might dig up the waste and eat it. Are you prepared to run that risk?

[sphinx]

Oops, ignore the electoral college.

"Climatologist Exposes Cracks..."

I thought that this was going to be illegal (Except for plumbers....)

I hate to burst your bubble, but the magnetic North Pole has NEVER been situated at the geographic North Pole. Also, it hasn't moved in the last few centuries and probably not for eons.

The government cannot do anything about the problem, even if they wanted to perform a miracle. Government is helpless in the face of global weather trends driven by such things as solar winds and magnetic earth changes. El Nino does not even hear GWB, Congress or the Suprme Court. You can sell your SUV but that will not help anything. Millions of autos in the U.S. do not expell carbon dioxide in ten years equal to the blast from one volcano like Mt. St. Helens. Just enjoy driving your car to work and piling your money away for retirement. Enjoy your favorite television shows and support your favorite college or professional teams. Have fun while the good times last.

As for me, I pray regularly and at opportune moments each day. Being retired now, I can focus on my personal priorities.
