Yes Liz, I take the threat seriously, but am puzzled by the behavior of
politicians, in anticipation of the historic calamity. The actions,
even by true
believers in AGW, does not compute. Secondly, why is North American, and
European CO2, threaten the globe, but Chinese CO2 does not? This is a
bit of a
discrepancy. Lastly, I read mea culpa to the Eldars of Zion accusation
as I
their local leader, thus, I must recuse myself from this

Pax Vobiscum.
you don't seem to take it that seriously. But is this about climate science
only? I
only ask because there's this nefarious but very effective lobby outfit
that traces
its roots back into the days of tobacco harm denial. They use very reliable
psychological devices to create that sense of doubt. They really played
hardball
too....being willing to totally trash the reputation of science it secured
their
goals. Destroy individuals. Drive them to nervous breakdowns. Harass media
outlets.,
This is kind of a touchstone for these disinformation based organisations. They created
institutes specifically to push some agenda. We've had tobacco, big oil, and of course
the anti-evolution lot, all with their own "think tanks" and "institutes". Personally I
reckon they got the idea from L Ron Hubbard, who once got into a conversation with
fellow science fiction writers
Robert Heinlein, with whom he shared a house for a while, made a bar bet with him that he
couldn't create a religion after Hubbard had remarked that was the way to get *really* rich.
Brent
- I forget who, say James Blish and John W Campbell Jr, for the sake of argument - and
they all proposed crazy ideas about how one could create a science based religion. "We
could have little devices that let people measure their state of spiritual health!" they
chortled, imagining this was just one of those games SF writers love to indulge in -
little realising that Hubbard was making mental notes of everything they said.
