  1. Re:GW is real on Grim Picture of Polar Ice-Sheet Loss · · Score: 1

    Did you ever notice that I didn't take a side? So how am I spreading FUD, when I'm not actually being a global warming denier or a global warming alarmist?

    So "THE WORLD IS ENDING" is not Fear, Uncertainty, or Doubt? The fact is, we just don't know for sure. I'm open to any theory based on scientific research, but no one truly knows for a fact what is going on. There is enough data on both sides to warrant looking at. The Earth is warming, but what is causing it? When you say "you're wrong" you leave no wiggle room for a change in your ideas. Isn't that the whole point of science?

    That's not what I am saying. What I'm saying is that there is just as much FUD thrown around on the global warming alarmist side as there is on the skeptic side.

    There's a difference between coming out of an ice-age (a natural process over tens of thousands of years) and global warming, where there is a noticeable change in temperature/ice-caps over a period of years/decades. And it's trolls like you spreading FUD that don't help matters.

    FUD? Isn't that exactly what you are spreading?

    Schools do have a right to dig into the non-school activities if atheletes sign an agreement not to drink. Most high school athletic programs require that. If you read the article, one girl said she did not get punished because she is not involved in athletics.

    The students were not using school equipment to post these pictures. The pictures were brought the administration's attention by an unnamed party.

    'When you control the pipe you should be able to get profit from your investment.' Doesn't he mean tubes not pipes?

    I don't agree with his post, but I'm pretty sure he is talking about Iraqis experiencing a 9/11 - not American soldiers.

    that you don't have to file a return at all if you are expecting a refund? If for some reason you don't have it done by the "deadline", just wait a little and file it later.
