Just say yes

[Peter_Puget]

to global warming!

[G-spotter]

Well there was a model that said that global warming would cause the Antarctic glaciers to grow too, because of increased snowfall... they recently admitted that model was wrong because the melt has increased but the snowfall has not.

[StevenSeagal]

"The findings are significant, because temperature and rain and snow trends in the area impact on water availability for more than 50 million Pakistanis."

 

 

So by ignoring global warming, we're helping give water to terrorists.

 

Are you with us, or against us?

Thanks God some things don't change

[G-spotter]

But if God really is answering prayers and altering the natural course of events through miracles, it raises a host of questions. Why are some helped but not others? Why do the virtuous suffer while the wicked are rewarded? These questions are as old as religion itself, and today we are no closer to answering them than philosophers of old.

 

PP does this mean there is a problem that cannot be answered or solved by the free market?

 

What is the value in US dollars of a single Higgs boson?

Ever wonder what's behind the invisible hand?

 

Higss was the best climbing partner ever!

So what you are saying is that the virtuous suffer because they can't afford an upgrade?

[Peter_Puget]

No they suffer because of overreaching regulations that choke off the ability of Microsoft to produce cheap and high utility upgrades

Hey now, it's Google that has the motto of "Do no evil".

Microshaft THRIVES on evil.

pp 5-stars all his own lame posts.

i did my part by rating it 1-star, that brought it down to 3

 

you can help out by one-starring it too!

I didn't realize starring was democratic.

to global warming!

 

Well it ain't helping much around here:

 

 

 

 

 

I'll bet Petey P. ain't never been in this part of the hills, so what does he care? Or any part of the mountains, for that matter. Hey Puget, did you ever climb Raindawg? Didn't think so.

I'll give it one star....one BROWN STARFISH, comin' right up!

While the current trend is sad, take solice in the fact that we are just here for the blink of an eye. The glaciers will return - and shrink yet again. Of course the current global warming trend is real, but despite efforts to convince me/public, I remain wholly unconvinced that we're looking at anything more than mostly natural cycles-within-cycles. The glacier above took a mere 20 years to form up in St Helens' crater, and while not a typical case it does demonstrate how quickly a glacier can reconstitute or form given the proper conditions. Not 'centuries' as we were taught in school, but decades.

You're not fooling me! That's no glacier and that ain't St.Helens. That's some kind of artsy photograph of cracked mud and hoar frost. I like the way you photo-shopped "USGS" on there for added authenticity.

Can I take solace in the fact you were just rippin' on someone for poor spelling but can't spell a simple 6 letter word yourself?

[Raindawg]

Global warming has been taking place since the end of the last ice age about 10,000 years ago. Back then, the sea level was 300 feet LOWER than it is now and parts of North Africa were savanna-like with all the accompanying critters. If humans are a factor, they might at best be accelerating the process. Look at the history of the Pleistocene, a series of glaciations interspersed with interglacial periods...we might just be in one of them interglacial periods in advance of the next cold one. So start buying your one-piece down suits while they're cheap and available.

 

Ain't that sporty?!!!

You're not serious, are you?

The Glaciers are growing.. Just ask PP.. he has the data.. must be true... Go Bush!

[iain]

I'd be interested to know what Bush thinks a glacier is.
