Return of the Inquisition

Well that went well.. :grin:

And that's what happens when there's full on confrontation and little discussion.. There is undoubtably a political engine inside the GW movement. And EVERYONE can play politics. But THIS topic is a lot more interesting when you find out how little folks actually know about the science and how the media has tortured and skewed this issue.

Just because little folks know about global warming doesn't make it any less valid. Do you only listen to tall people?

I read the actual science and the papers. That's what I've done about it for about 12 years now. Would LOVE to find a good midget or tall person to discuss the actual details. The politics of it bore me -- because it's so totally transparently politically charged. I take a pass on stuff like activists threatening the "other side" with inquisitions.. Like this thread.

I haven't found a correlation between stature or BMI that corresponds to what anyone knows about GW claims and science and hype. Have You?

BTW -- nice to chat with you again too D-Ray !!!

What is the nature of this "engine" and what are it's objectives?

Are you familiar with UN IPCC conferences? Ever read their "mission statement".. They are extremely honest about THEIR objectives. (even tho the IPCC is not TRULY a science driven investigation -- they "rent" scientists to provide justification for their myriad of social justice and redistributionist efforts on behalf of GW) 2/3 of the IPCC is non-science. Economists and poly sci and sociologists.. I know that technically they consider themselves part of the science -- but it's telling who actually RUNS those conferences.

Also telling that each one of them ends in protests and walkouts and hissy fits from the "have-not" countries that APPROVE all of this "science"..

Their mission statement says right there in big print that they are ONLY studying the MAN-MADE causes of Global Warming. Not truly interested in Climate Science or how all those massive thermal pathways and storage mechanism actually work.

Then -- there's "big wind and big solar" which by NOW have been over-inflated and overhyped as the SOLUTION to this problem. BUT -- I'd rather discuss the myriad of theories and projections and leave the "underlying motivators" to the political brawlers.
