That's a great saying and completely relevant to some people in this thread :thumbsup

hey.. wasn't there giant lizards ruling the earth during those times?

I can tell you what is not a joke or false; the modification and over processing of the nations food supply for generous profits by big name household name companies, and other profit greedy zealots like the insurance and pharmacological companies.

100% fact. Our food is shit, and people should focus on that instead of the man behind the curtain playing manipulated data games to scare people.

One is fiction, one is non.

But it's all good, the sheeple will just go about believing what companies tell them on the TV setters. They're paying for that trust.

Great quote from Mark Twain above. I couldn't agree more.

Pretty much so. So let's not worry about any warming, lizards will do fine. :)

Don't get me started about European view to American food, drug and similar habits. But you summed up it pretty well.

phew! here i was almost convinced a mere change of 7 degrees wouldn't even matter!

what a total idiotic argument. please move to the coast if you're not there already.

so you'll guys will believe in basic scientific laws of gravity, newton's laws of motion, laws of thermodynamics, theory of general relativity. really rudimentary shit, and 1000 others EXCEPT THIS ONE. makes PERFECT sense.

My take is after reading a few of the quoted blocks of the emails, is that they could be talking about many things.

These for instance..

There is nothing damming about anything said in the first 3 quoted examples. Unless of course you are trying to spin a agenda against global warming. There is no context to see what they were actually discussing, just a few cherry picked lines.

The first they are talking what to leave in a report or what to leave out. Just because they want to leave out info, doesn't mean that it's some conspiracy. They are trying to decide what is important and what is not.

So they don't think a random scientist is working with them.. big deal are they not allowed to discuss that?

As far as the last.. while yes it seems like dirty tactics, trying to get someone to investigate a person. It doesn't mean they are in some conspiracy. it just shows that someone is likely on a power trip..

None of these proof anything they are just a bunch cherry picked quotes cobbled together in a agenda biased article trying to lead you on.

If this was the proof in the pudding, then why is it all so vague, with just cherry picked quotes with no context to actually judge them by?

This is nothing more than a opinion biased article where the writer is trying to led you on with no real evidence.

Fifty weenies!!!

I'm open, which scientific law are you referring to?

Btw, theory of relativity is a theory, else it would be named the law of relativity.

isn't that what he says?

Funny enough.. I checked the author's other "contributions" to Fobes.com..

Every single article he has written for Forbes is anti global warming..

http://www.forbes.com/sites/jamestaylor/

He also comes up several times on media matters where they counter his arguments and pretty much show he cherry picks shit and makes up facts to fit his agenda..

http://mediamatters.org/tags/james-taylor

He is obviously not objective and he just cherry picks his shit. Big surprise, he fed you guys exactly what you wanted to hear and you sucked it right up.

I gather that the crux of his posts is that there is some law being applied to climate change, thus the memtioning of a few. But it makes no sense to include a theory mixed in with laws if you're trying to argue others are ignoring a law of climate change. My point entirely is man-made climate change is a theory and moreover the science has been politicized with one side claiming their theory is law/fact because a bunch of people agree.

or maybe the point was we take all these things for granted from scientists.. but when it comes to man-made climate change everyones all:

(yea i was looking for an excuse to use this - thanks bro)

There's no better way to show the World you don't really understand science than to make a silly statement like this.

Let me give you a quick little lesson. Instead of typing it out, I'm just going to cut and paste somebody else's words.

follow the money... :2 cents:

funny how only white people in 'Merica deny climate change. the rest of the world doesn't. how shocking.

here, go make $10K, how will you nOObs spend the money?

http://www.salon.com/2014/06/25/call...g_ is_a_hoax/

thank you... kinda weird seeing you post something that makes sense...

I started a topic about that several weeks ago and oddly enough no one from GFY has managed to get their free 10k paycheck.. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Johnny in all seriousness, when the time comes you can make more than 10-12K a year and move out of your car I might be willing to hear your theories about how life works. and I realize that sounds harsh but how can you expect someone to accept you logic and your foundations of knowledge when you can't even make a fucking living in AMERICA?

:2 cents:

applies to you as well

Global warming is real because God personally told me it was... and He is PISSED about it!

there... its been settled! :thumbsup

Now... fix it...

i can't make a living? when all else fails go for the ad hominem attack. it's the last resort of people out of ideas.

I debunked your topic and now you are butt hurt.. So sad..

lotsa confirmation bias going on in here.

That's what I said but nobody responded.

It is hypocritical.

I believe global warming is true.

But I don't believe in carbon taxing or any other tax system to counter it. If any party suggested it I would vote against that party.

I'm not naive enough to believe everything governments say. Instead I look at the big picture and see who's saying what and base my opinion on that.

What does that make me?

The article was written in Nov. of 2011... is there a recent update to this or something?

They don't Fluoridate the drinking water where you live then?

not butt hurt at all.. you have debunked nothing :2 cents:

have more respect for people that can earn because I feel they have a more 'realistic understanding' of reality... in my personal experience all the people of 'liberal or pro liberal or into global warming or other weird liberal agendas' make no money and excuse this by blaming 'the man' and 'weird 1%' manipulations as the excuse for their failures instead of accepting that they have no 'snap' or are unable to succeed.

for instance all the people I personally know who love the fuck out of Obama care basically earn about 20k a year and now have 'subsidized health care ins' while people like me that actually earn a living have had our 'health care ins' cost doubled ...

that's the reality I live in, while you guys live in some weird 'chemtrail' world run by lizard people and the 1% and global warming

seen this many times :2 cents:

a realist maybe about government except you are being manipulated about 'man made global warming'... global warming is the new 'communism' crusade to get power and money :2 cents:

Looks like I'm on the same side as 12Clicks today too, who picked the teams?

look it up... the information is all out there...

I'm merely pointing out that your logic is suspect because real world evidence points to you as lacking the understanding to organize thoughts for a successful outcome...

'I can't figure out how to make a living but I understand all about world events'

don't worry there are many things I don't really have insight into however I don't claim that I do to appear knowledgeable :2 cents:

It's funny and sad to watch how far to the right extreme the GOP has become. Things that even Republicans used to think were insane are now mainstream in their party.

All this because a black man got elected twice into the white house. Obama has destroyed the Republican party by driving them absolutely bat shit crazy.

I wonder what would happen if a person of Arabic descent were able to win the presidency or better yet some Mexican immigrant's son whom was born in the US. The heads exploding would show up on seismic charts. :1orglaugh

It's fucking 109° in the valley today, fuck you climate change deniers!

Are you stating it's not possible for one to be functional in one area (well versed on world events, history, etc.) and non-functional in another ("making a living" which is subjective)?

But climate science is in your wheelhouse? Why not take up the $10k challenge over at Salon then? It seems you're a natural at climate science or the conspiracy behind it... easy money for you then right?

There is reason I replied to that post the way i did and it has zero to do with your professor atom c&p.
