Re: [MBZ] OT: Big chil indeed.
Let's see! Where to begin? Warmer is much better than colder (for the US). The proposed solutions would seriously deteriorate the economic status of the poor and middle class (in the US). The former head of the IPCC has admitted that this cause is a religion to him. There are vast areas of the earth's surface for which we have no accurate temperature readings. Climate Science is NOT a science in the sense that there have not been null hypotheses which have been controverted by data. The issue has been heavily politicized by so called progressives and their fellow travelers of the press corps. Data have been altered and cherry picked without transparent justification. The leftist language police don't want to allow the use of the term climate skeptic but rather call us deniers in order to evoke images of Nazism and associate us with holocaust deniers; using the ad hominem approach since they lack actual scientific evidence for their chicken-little hysteria.

So today and tomorrow are supermoons or something (the vernal equinox) so the morning tides are really high.

In my mind what really seals it are two things: (1) the absolute demonizing and *ad hominem *attacks on those who question global warming, and (2) the attempts to suppress publication of scientific studies which don't support the global warming narrative. Add to that the proposed solutions all increase government, taxes, regulations, and energy costs for the consumer, CO2 is plant food and absolutely vital for life as we know it, and the climate has NEVER been stable, and it becomes quite easy to recognize the fraud and decide to fight it. -Max ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: https://server.secureplusplusfour.net:2083/cpsess595060604/3rdparty/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Re: [MBZ] OT: Big chil indeed.
Ad hominem occurs from both political persuasions. There are zero solutions, however, we could agree that we are persons that all desire to continue to live. Those with money cannot continue to make money if we do not purchase stuff, yet, we all need to purchase stuff. I drive a 30 year old used car and buy used USA made stuff on purpose. On purpose I do not purchase items made in china. The Empire is dead. USA and tenticles worldwide make the Empire a world failure. Again, there is zero solution. mao ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: https://server.secureplusplusfour.net:2083/cpsess595060604/3rdparty/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Craig wrote: If I had nothing else to do (HA!), I would detail more of the prostituting of science in the name of that political agenda. It is all about passing Cap and Trade, which is nothing but a massive transference of wealth from the middle and upper middle class to the ultra wealthy. When it is passed it will raise fossil fuel prices (electricity, diesel fuel, gasoline) through the roof, and push whatever manufacturing is left in the US, overseas. Is the climate changing? Probably. Is Cap and Trade going to fix it? Unless it can alter the earth's orbit, axis wobble, and solar activity, probably not. Notice I wrote when it is passed, not if. They (the CO2 is climate change crowd) will get what they want, and after they do, they will be negatively affected them most. Poetic justice, comic irony, call it what you will, it will not be pretty. Interesting video.
