the answer is staring us in the face each and every day. we';re riding on the answer, and being kept warm by the answer. if one were to look back throughout history, one would notice a cycle.

Oh I know this one.  A mirror.  My butt.  A blanket.  Umm...  tough one.  I guess "War" but it could also be "Famine" or even tides of the moon.

Pumpkin pie is fantastic.

We in the UK are aware of the sinister ramifications of having colonial vegatable products in our gardens.

We have watched Scoobydoo and the cartoon Sleepy hollow and realise that dark forces are afoot.

We don't eat this type of vegtable but throw the inners out and place a candle within, this reminds us that we are British.

There are no pies stored in this plane overnight

thennnn....what you're saying, is that someone DOES know, but it doesn't align to the beliefs that they wish to put forth, thus they are pretending to not know.

no idea where you got that from, what I'm saying is that our climate is "a very complex dynamic system, so lots of inputs drive it" and that "one of the interesting features of complex dynamic systems, the tiniest of inputs can result in massive changes to the system." ... exactly what I typed - nothing more, nothing less.

In America we take the innards out and make delicious pies.

We then deposit bad children into them before throwing the whole works into the trash.

 Which is a convoluted round-about way of saying one of two things. no one knows, or someone knows, but doesn't want to see.

 i'm not meaning to be offensive to you personally, and i hope you realize that.

no it doesnt mean that at all, it means ... exactly what it says. Its not a convoluted way of saying something simple, its a succinct expression of something rather complicated.

edit: just to be clear I was trying to answer your question about how in the grand scheme of things an apparently insignificant human intervention could have a large effect.

Yep, we are going to pay more for food over next months/year;Corn prices already 45% , soybeans, 22% since June;
Drought stretches across America, threatens crops;

We're going to pay more for corn because someone got the silly notion that corn is a fuel rather than a food source...

It seems to me that he's saying that the subject is too complicated for mere mortals to grasp, so we should leave this to and trust the smart people that know better.
