Where's The Data?

What happens is that people of intellect can put forth well-reasoned, logical ideas, based on facts and evidence, that people of little or no intellect are incapable of understanding.

 

Exhibits A&B: Douche Nozzle and Ku Klux Kaskadumbshit

 

To summarize the situation with these morons and their ilk: Anyone with a mouth can talk.

Yeltsin is famous according to the list but Bulgakov, Mikalkov, Nabokov, Soljenitsin, .. are missing.

 

 

forgive me it was the first link the google gave.

 

plus i'm partially german.

 

No sweat, I just wanted to show how much I appreciate Slavic culture. Anyway it'd be difficult to argue that Yeltsin isn't famous :lmao:

Any "climate change" treaty he puts his signature on will face the same Senate ratification fate as Versailles

do you see any irony there? the us rejection of the versailles treaty was a major part of the super-shit-storm that was ww2 - it turned out that a solution to a global problem wasn't possible w/ one of the biggest players in the world sticking it's isolationist, dipshit-conservative head up its proverbial ass.

 

not even a little bit of irony? :)

An Open Letter to Congress From US Scientists on Climate Change and Recently Stolen Emails

 

by Climate Experts

 

As U.S. scientists with substantial expertise on climate change and its impacts on natural ecosystems, our built environment and human well-being, we want to assure policy makers and the public of the integrity of the underlying scientific research and the need for urgent action to reduce heat-trapping emissions. In the last few weeks, opponents of taking action on climate change have misrepresented both the content and the significance of stolen emails to obscure public understanding of climate science and the scientific process.

 

We would like to set the record straight.

 

The body of evidence that human activity is the dominant cause of global warming is overwhelming. The content of the stolen emails has no impact whatsoever on our overall understanding that human activity is driving dangerous levels of global warming. The scientific process depends on open access to methodology, data, and a rigorous peer-review process. The robust exchange of ideas in the peer-reviewed literature regarding climate science is evidence of the high degree of integrity in this process.

 

As the recent letter to Congress from 18 leading U.S. scientific organizations, including the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the American Geophysical Union, and the American Meteorological Society, states:

 

“Observations throughout the world make it clear that climate change is occurring, and rigorous scientific research demonstrates that the greenhouse gases emitted by human activities are the primary driver. These conclusions are based on multiple independent lines of evidence, and contrary assertions are inconsistent with an objective assessment of the vast body of peer-reviewed science. … If we are to avoid the most severe impacts of climate change, emissions of greenhouse gases must be dramatically reduced.”

 

 

These “multiple independent lines of evidence” are drawn from numerous public and private research centers all across the United States and beyond, including several independent analyses of surface temperature data. Even without including analyses from the UK research center from which the emails were stolen, the body of evidence underlying our understanding of human-caused global warming remains robust.

 

We urge you to take account of this as you make decisions on climate policy.

Not at all. Europe's imposition of Versailles on Germany--our absence notwithstanding--is what brought about the counter result. In fact, I believe the US actually loaned Germany money in 1924 to help them get France off their collective backs. Don't look in the mirror if you want to understand the collapse of the Wiemar Republic--look at utterly arrogant European "victors"--like France. I'm just glad Senator Lodge and Borah were there to keep Woodrow from making fools out of us here.

Unless, say, it's swollen shut.

is that a threat, tough-guy? :lmao:

 

I figure if Chaoda can toss around death threats here with impunity, then what's a little poke in the jaw, eh?

 

death threats? where? I think you are lying again to try justifying your being a thug.
