Global Warming? A Misunderstanding with a dash of Lies

I have seen the opposite, they ag them on, making them more and more violent and misimformed.

Just don't take away my smog, lead, asbestos, sprayed paint, trichlorethelene, and numerous others that I have enjoyed for the last 65 years.

They make you healthy by improving your imune system.

I'm a good example, I haven't been sick since I was 8 years old with the German measels and i've never had the flu.

Giggle, if I was able to do it MY WAY, they would be long gone at a fraction of the costs.

Perhaps you should pursue a contract with the EPA to do just that. I'd have no problem with it..

DILUTION IS THE SOLUTION TO POLLUTION.

Simple, but profound words!

Why are those toxic waste sites so dangerous? Because the chemicals were concentrated in a small area.

Dig them up and spread it all over the United States. Heck, divide a single toxic waste dump into 270,000,000 million doses (population of the USA) and I would personally eat the tiny little pill given to me.

Shocking? Or do I actually understand the concept of dosage?

Global Warming? A Misunderstanding with a dash of Lies

Try 1) a mis-interpretation of 2) aging ground-stations influenced by 3) a growing "urban heat-island effect" that tends to skew readings coupled with a political agenda that is dead set on blaming MAN for natural global changes ...

PS. Balloon data and satellites don't show this 'warming trend' that the ground station data minutely indicates ...

Au contrair, they do just the opposite. But if you'd like to continue believing that, go right ahead...

Bull, we used to play with Mercury in class all the time.

We used to think it was cool how it would stick together.

You must be pretty young, Mercury was almost a Childs toy at one point and that is when the government came out warning people of the dangers of Mercury.

Just because it was known in some medical documents doesn't mean it was common knowledge and it wasn't.

[Hunble]

270,000,000 or 270 million.

You get the idea....

[Hunble]

Yup, amazing how at the age of 47, that darn Mercury that I love to play with never harmed me!

DILUTION IS THE SOLUTION TO POLLUTION.

Oh c'mon, you can't be serious. Perhaps you'd like to take a little plutonium pill to 'dilute' it? With our technology, it'd be fairly easy to neutralize toxins and THEN introduce the resultant substance into the environment. It WOULD cost money though, and of course we don't want to spend ANY money on anything we aren't FORCED to...

Radioactive wastes, well, they aren't so easily "neutralized". Perhaps they should be reprocessed into nuclear fuel, perhaps they should be handled as they currently are. But all the other toxic wastes COULD be reprocessed or neutralized if so desired...

[pfflier]

I tend to agree with you. The radical environmentalists agressively control the agenda and the more passive elements allow themselves to be used.

Sounds alot like the Bolshevik revolution doesn't it? Two percent are in control of the useful idiots.

I once knew of a family that lived next to a lake. That lake was contaminated with mercury, and there were signs posted that warned not to eat the fish. This family had eaten the fish anyways for many years. The children were deformed and retarded.

Ouch, as a conservative/libertarian the name "Superfund" should immediately be recognizable as one of the biggest federal boondogles and the reason for irresponsible prosecution of one company for another's waste. The Superfund is a program affiliated with widespread abuse.

This was the case a decade ago, and little has changed. Look into those facts before praising Superfund(though I'm sure there have been a few sites where cleanup was needed--remember though they sue companies to get funds anyway, so slashes in funds are not always a bad thing)

Uh, if you ever visit my home, you will find some radioactive melted sand from our first Atomic Bomb. It is rather proudly displayed in my living room.

Yes, send me my share of the US Radioactive wastes (divided by 270 million) and I would have absolutely no problem dropping this tiny pill into a hole in my back yard.

DOSAGE!!!!!

[FormerLurker]

I just want the toxic dumps cleaned up, and it'd be nice if those responsible DID pay for the cleanup...

[FormerLurker]

To each his own. I wouldn't follow your lead however, nor would I want my kids to be forced to do so either..

[dila813]

Oh, I got to tell you about this.

I once worked at a radioactive and biological disposal company. The things that are contaminated is very broad.

Most of the waste is paper towels that don't even look like they have been used. Rubber gloves, tongue depressors, hospital gowns, etc...

There are lots of radioactive isotopes besides the bad ones you are thinking of. If you had a Geiger counter you might be able to walk around your kitchen and find some of your food actually emits mild amounts of radioactivity.

[dila813]

Maybe it was incest not mercury?

[Hunble]

The children were deformed and retarded.

Now that should be very simple for you to medically document.

You know, every time it rains in Minneapolis, a few minutes later it rains in St. Paul Minnesota. Obviously, Minneapolis is causing the rain in St. Paul.

I'm surprised we don't glow at night yet or look like something out of some bad sci-fi movie..
