Soames123 wrote: http://magma.nationalgeographic.com/...re2/index.html That's all quite interesting, but as most any educated person knows, the earth has had warm spells and cold spells off and on throughout its life. The historical and geological records bear this out. And man wasn't even around for a lot of them. It is only the uneducated public (tin foil hat crowd) that really buys into Global Warming as a truly manmade occurrence. They are easy prey for the huxters, who fleece them whilst they are consumed by their ignorance of simple concepts. But hey! Don't lose any sleep over it! It amazes me that so many apparently quite intelligent people can completely embrace the idea of greenhouse gas emissions having no effect at all on the global climate. Well, from this we can ascertain that the wearing of a tin-foil hat in no way cuts down on an individuals ability to experience amazement. Variations occur naturally over time; that has never been in dispute. However, the physical properties of CO2 are very well known, and we're adding a lot to the atmosphere every year. It would be nice if some natural process is cancelling out the effects of all that extra CO2. I hope it is, for our sake, but having a closed mind to the issue isn't going to make it go away. Questions: Do you have just one tin-foil hat or several? Are any painted in pretty colours, or do you prefer the natural look? Steve Holland, MI Drake R7, R8 and R8B |

Steve Holland, MI Drake R7, R8 and R8B In fact, scientific knowledge forms the basis of our modern civilisation. All that technology we conveniently use in our everyday lives (including your shortwave radio gear) is the result of scientific research. You can't dismiss one complete branch of science without dismissing it all (and going to live in a cave), because that would make you a hypocrite. Strange questions about tin-foil hats are unacceptable as a means of persuading other people to change their minds about the causes of global warming. This does your case no good at all. I would have thought that to be self-evident. Good DX my friend. Ian, Renfrew, Scotland. |

Tin-foil hats or not, what you fail to see is that my case is sound, while yours is flawed... get over it. :-) |
