Weather Channel Founder: Sue Al Gore for Fraud
« on: March 14, 2008, 08:33:07 AM »
Interesting.

Wonder if it's doable?


Might bring such things to a screeching halt?

Something similar was done in England, because Inconvenient Truth has something like close to 30 scientific flaws in it. Can't pass off something that hideously flawed and show it in science classrooms. To do the same here would cost about $2 million.

I never figured out why anyone would even use it in their teaching.  It honestly isn't groundbreaking and it has flaws that are readily used to debunk it, much to the distaste of many climatologists.

It would definitely be an interesting case, and would really take a good solid look into if global warming is real or not. 

Btw Wraq when I click on that second link nothing happens, it just says loading.

It will eventually become clear to even the most devout GW adherent that they were duped. Those who admit their folly will earn my respect. Those who pretend it never happened will always be the fool to me.

Did you vote for Kerry?

Do you think a guy who holds our troops in disdain would have been the right choice as Commander In Chief?   Just curious.

Bush wasn't a mistake. He was the lesser of two evils. I've said that from the beginning.

Curious why you have chosen not to answer a simple question. 

I voted for Bush, and while I don't regret it given the poor alternative, I would rather have had an acceptable choice instead of him.  I sure can't agree with all he has done, but I do agree with some of it.

Dago, I voted for Bush in both elections. The GW my post referred to was Global Warming, not George W.
