The way I look at it, Eagler has a 50-50 chance of being right -- and his research cost 0$, and took only minutes.    Did you mean man-induced global warming, or just global warming in general?

Does it bother you that W admits that global warming is real and that man is contributing to the problem?

John, do you have a link to those satellite scans?

I thought this thread had died a few weeks ago? I wonder how long it's gonna stay on the first page of the O club?
I'm going for at least another week...

must be from all melting ice caps.

It should cool slightly from the melting icecaps, but it has had little tendency to do so.

oboe..  believe it or not I am not making up my mind either..  I do have some experiance with scientists doomsday predictions tho and this whole thing is very forced to me...

It bothers me that the man made global warming true believers are worshipping a very young science and are willing to shut down debate on the subject.   It bothers me that these global climatoligists cant predict next year but claim to be able to lay our our doom..


it bothers me that they are unwilling to factor in the suns activity and that they use terms like "contribute" instead of numbers.

I simply don't trust em... I didn't trust the "secondhand smoke" true believers either or the house mold guys or the ice age guys of the 70's

By all means do the research..  that is what they should be doing but admit that it is unclear at this point.

interesting stuff.  as I was running I was watching a segment on the panama canal.  in one breath the narrator states that "due to global warming low levels of water in gatun lake make operations in the canal inefficient".  in the next breath the narrator states that "when the lake water levels are higher than normal, this also impedes canal operation".  the chicken littles always want to have it both ways and blame boooooosh.

laz,

what about flourocarbons and the hole in the ozone layer?   That is the last scientific doomsday scenario that I recall.    How do you think that whole thing went?     Were you ever convinced the ozone layer was in danger from the chemicals we used as refrigerants?    Has the ozone layer recovered since the banning of the offending chemicals?

I should probably open that question up to anyone who knows, not just you.

So, you don't believe secondhand smoke is a carcinogen?   Do you believe firsthand smoke poses health risks?

I believe I heard they just passed a law in Maine that makes it illegal for adults to smoke with children present in a vehicle.
