    I know what kind of developers bootcamp programs produce in 12 to 16 weeks. About 25% of them are useful as developers. 50% are useful as QA. And 25% are useful for converting O2 to CO2.

    Sooo. About the same ratio as a Masters in CS?

    And there you go. It does not matter to you that the real data says that the earth is going to get hotter and then it will go into an ice age. Because this has happened many times before. What we must all remember is GLOBAL WARMING! and EVIL HUMANS!

    If you even try to look at it differently you are a "DENIER" used to tie those people to the same people who deny that Jews died in the Holocaust. You people who can not even look at contrasting data without screaming "DENIER" are sad. Some of us can look at data and wonder. Some of us can ask questions like ... What happens to the earth with no humans? ... How many species went extinct every decade before humans? ... What is the rate at which Coal, Natural Gas and Oil are created naturally? What happens to the climate if we right now completly halt the economy and ban all, fossil fuels? ... What level of restriction do we have to go to effect real change? ... What is the cost of that?

    These are questions that in your mind are just created to blur the truth that people are bad and "The fucking gas we breathe out (CO2) must be REGULATED!"

    Anyone that thinks that giving the US government or the UN the power to regulate the gas that plants breathe in and we breathe out is a good idea is mentally challenged or has absolutely no knowledge of history what so ever.

    Long term trends in the Earth History show that we will get really hot and we will get really cold. Ice ages come and go. The climate changes drastically as a normal part of the process.

    I don't think this point gets the consideration it deserves. Manmade Global Warming believers, like King Canute, put an unwarranted faith in their ability to effect change. It did not take long for Canute to realize his folly, and the cost was only to his pride. For warmists, however, indulging their vanity costs jobs and lives.

    As long as they can feel good about themselves, that is all that counts.

    Not sure exactly what is what, but those numbers are skewed at least a bit. You become a pariah if you publish Anti Global Warming stuff. The people of tolerance are the most angry and hateful if you choose not to agree with them so I would think that if you want decent relationships with your peers and do not want to be screamed down every time you speak best to speak in favor of or shut the fuck up.

    I love it when idiots speak. "There are no justifiable wars." Get a life, get an education, then get a woman. The reason that the Taliban are going to win is because we can no longer prosecute a war properly due to all the fucking pansies in our own country. The rules are now something like this. Don't hurt any civilians. Do not cause any collateral damage. Do not do anything that could be construed as not nice. Then and only then if you are still alive can you start to think about killing the enemy. The rules should go back to ... Kill the enemy, Destroy their ability to prosecute the war and then try to kill as few innocents as possible. War is bad. When you start one do what it takes to win it fast.
