Global Warming: The Cold, Hard Facts? (The AlGore, Eco-Indulgence, CarbonCredit Neener Thread)

Global Warming, as we think we know it, doesn't exist. And I am not the only one trying to make people open up their eyes and see the truth. But few listen, despite the fact that I was one of the first Canadian Ph.Ds. in Climatology and I have an extensive background in climatology, especially the reconstruction of past climates and the impact of climate change on human history and the human condition. Go to link for remainder of article: http://www.canadafreepress.com/2007/global-warming020507.htm

Johann "Algore" Tetzel came to town selling eco-indulgence, carbon credits. (When a coin in the carbon pot rings, out of global warmin hell a soul does spring.)

How many carbon credits does it take to get out of global warming purgatory? (Will a snowball really have a chance in global warming hell? An iceberg? A glacier? My Kenmore IceMaker?)

Who is the modern Martin Luther of the truth that the earth has gone through many cycles or warming and cooling? (How do we make that funny?)

Daily Affirmations for the Unstable

I no longer need to punish, deceive or compromise myself. Unless, of
course, I want to stay employed.

A good scapegoat is nearly as welcome as a solution to the problem.

As I let go of my feelings of guilt, I can get in touch with my Inner
Sociopath.

I have the power to channel my imagination into ever-soaring levels of
suspicion and paranoia.

Today, I will gladly share my experience and advice, for there are no
sweeter words than "I told you so."

I need not suffer in silence while I can still moan, whimper and complain.

As I learn the innermost secrets of the people around me, they reward me in
many ways to keep me quiet.

I assume full responsibility for my actions, except the ones that are
someone else's fault.

I honor my personality flaws, for without them I would have no personality
at all.

Joan of Arc heard voices too.

When someone hurts me, forgiveness is cheaper than a lawsuit, but not nearly
as gratifying.

The first step is to say nice things about myself. The second, to do nice
things for myself. The third, to find someone to buy me nice things.

As I learn to trust the universe, I no longer need to carry a gun.

Just for today, I will not sit in my living room all day watching TV.
Instead I will move my TV into the bedroom.

Who can I blame for my own problems? Give me just a minute... I'll find
someone.

Why should I waste my time reliving the past when I can spend it worrying
about the future?

I will find humor in my everyday life by looking for people I can laugh at.

I am willing to make the mistakes if someone else is willing to learn from
them.

Why God never received a PhD:
1. He had only one major publication.
2. It was in Hebrew.

3. It had no references.
4. It wasn't published in a refereed journal.

5. Some even doubt he wrote it by himself.
6. It may be true that he created the world, but what has he done since then?

7. His cooperative efforts have been quite limited.
8. The scientific community has had a hard time replicating his results.

9. He never applied to the ethics board for permission to use human subjects.
10. When one experiment went awry he tried to cover it by drowning his subjects.

11. When subjects didn't behave as predicted, he deleted them from the sample.
12. He rarely came to class, just told students to read the book.

13. Some say he had his son teach the class.
14. He expelled his first two students for learning.

15. Although there were only 10 requirements, most of his students failed his tests.
16. His office hours were infrequent and usually held on a mountain top.

17. No record of working well with colleagues.

I read something today in an article that just jumped off the page at me and I quote........

The Gore-Milken Connection: Global-Warming Junk Bonds?

*First, Gore sets up a company that will invest in other companies that will benefit from global warming alarmism

*Second, Gore gets some Hollywood types to fund and produce a movie designed to scare the c-c-carbon out of the population

*Third, Gore travels the world promoting this movie, while pushing the view that a cataclysm is imminent if the world doesn't immediately act

*Fourth, an adoring media falls for the con hook, line, and sinker. Rather than debunking the flaws in the theories, the media promote every word of it while advancing the concept that Gore's views represent those of an overwhelming majority of scientists

*Fifth, scared governments and citizens across the globe invest in alternative energy programs driving up the shares of companies Gore's group has already invested in

*Sixth, Gore and his cronies make billions as they laugh all the way to the bank at the stupidity of their fellow citizens

America -- what a country!
