I guess the freeze in California wasn't enough.

[evad]

Excellent!

[ArrogantBustard]

BAS = BS

[Names Ash Housewares]

Bull crap!!!

Here is the proper "clock" to be watching....

http://www.hawaii.edu/powerkills/DP.CLOCK.HTM

[E. Pluribus Unum]

We need a nuclear jihad clock showing how close the jihadists are to detonating a nuke from a container ship in New York Harbor.

That one is a lot closer to midnight.

[lawdude]

BFD!

[jagusafr]

GASP! Yeah, waddevah...

[frankenMonkey]

Have they adjusted for Daylight Savings??
We might have just a bit more time...

[edpc]

The perils of 27,000 nuclear weapons, 2000 of them ready to launch within minutes; and the destruction of human habitats from climate change.

Oh, come on......nothing here about A. Q. Khan spreading dangerous information or the Iranians hiding their nuclear program and openly threatening Israel? What a load.

[weegee]

"...the BAS Board is drawing attention ...to the catastrophic harm from climate change that is unfolding."

Chicken Little alert.

What about moving it forward because of that big nasty asteroid heading towards Earth?

[Behind Liberal Lines]

C'mon, what really happened is that they watched the last few episodes of "24."

Two Minutes To Midnight

Kill for gain or shoot to maim
But we don't need a reason
The golden goose is on the loose
And never out of season
Some blackened pride still burns inside
This shell of bloody treason
Here's my gun for a barrel of fun
For the love of living death.
The killer's breed or the demon's seed
The glamour
The fortune
The pain
Go to war again
Blood is freedom's strain
But don't you pray for my soul anymore.
2 minutes to midnight
The hands that threaten doom.
2 minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb.

The blind men shout let the creatures out
We'll show the unbelievers
The napalm screams of human flames
Of a prime time belsen feast...yeah
As the reasons for the carnage cut their meat and lick the gravy,
We oil the jaws of the war machine and feed it with our babies.

The killer's breed or the demon's seed,
The glamour, the fortune, the pain,
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain,
But don't you pray for my soul anymore.
2 minutes to midnight
The hands that threaten doom.
2 minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb.

The body bags and little rags of children torn in two
And the jellied brains of those who remain to put the finger right on you.
As the madmen play on words and make us all dance to their song,
To the tune of starving millions to make a better kind of gun.

The killer's breed or the demon's seed,
The glamour, the fortune, the pain,
Go to war again, blood is freedom's stain,
But don't you pray for my soul anymore.
2 minutes to midnight
The hands that threaten doom.
2 minutes to midnight
To kill the unborn in the womb.

Midnight all night

"...Stephen Hawking, BAS Sponsor..."

That's all the further you need to read
on this piece!

It'll go back when a democrat wins the WH.....

[Sender]

Was that one minute for the global proliferation of nuclear weapons and almost certain mass terrorism, and one minute for an unusually warm winter? (except where it's cold)

[Nathan Zachary]

What climate change? There is no global warming trend. the 20th century ended with overall global cooling. In fact since 1930's the warmest decade, despite carbon emissions increasing 24%, we've never had temperatures that high again. The Greenland glaciers have a net GAIN in mass, as do they at the south pole. There are dozens of research papers which all come to the same conclusion. The earth is cooling, and has been cooling over all since the 1400's. There is no global warming. Carbon dioxide is not a dangerous gas. Kyoto is a scam. Science news

[oblomov]

"In these dangerous times, scientists have a responsibility to speak truth to power

Government workers "speaking truth to power"? They are "power".

Created in 1947 by the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, the Doomsday Clock has been adjusted only 17 times prior to today, most recently in February 2002

Only 17 times?  Prior to today? That's 18 times including today. If these guys are so bright, why do they change their minds every couple of years? 

The above line should say: Created in 1947 by the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, the Doomsday Clock has been adjusted every 2yrs and 9 months.

-or-

Created in 1947 by the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, the Doomsday Clock has been adjusted a whopping 18 times including today, the last time as recently as February 2002

Somehow that line doesn't sound ominous.

 

 

[A Texan]

I have a question, when the world does who in the BAS will move the clock to 12?

[RightWhale]

Thread #12 in the past day.

[Zeon Cowboy]

I was wondering when they'd update this already.
