However, it seems that the carbon dioxide levels increase about 40 to 50 years *after* the temperature increase.
Are we are talking about that wonderful graph that Al Gore shows us in that fictional Uncertain Truth movie? The carbon dioxide does correlate nearly perfectly with the atmospheric temperature change. The only problem being that the carbon dioxide is released from the ocean when things get warmer. The actual difference in time was 800 years. the temperature went up and then 800 years later the carbon dioxide levels increased.
What has surprised me whilst(grammar Nazi paged) reading the comments on this subject is that the number of people here on/. that appear to have imbibed deeply of the AGW Kool-Aid. It also seems as if the Kool-Aid drunk here by/. users has very high levels of psychotropic agents(and I aint just talkin' about Flouride - girls). AGW is an outright lie and is a perfect example of why socialism disguised itself in green credentials decades ago - 'just think of the grand-children'.
A great movie to watch (regardless of your position on the matter) is The Great Global Warming Swindle
We all know that man never landed on the moon, the electricity grid is a fraud perpetrated by the MSM and you don't want to get me started on the interstate system.
It doesn't need to run off batteries, either, so as long as it doesn't cause your lights to dim or make the lounge room into a sauna, who cares how much power it draws?
I care, because I pay the electricity bill.
I haven't had one of those in years. I heard that electricity is rapidly going up in cost. is that true?
Mother Earth cares, because of the millions and millions gamers out there.
An incompetent bumbling employee of Best Buy can do that. I had the opportunity to play around with NSA grade forensic software(the stuff they admit to using not the super secret stuff) and i was absolutely stunned at the stuff I was recovering off my own old hard drives.
I was able to resurrect files supposedly no longer in existence after multiple writes, formats, and scrubs as if they were just written to the device the day before.
"You're thinking along the wrong lines," said Marvin, "You're failing to take into account something fairly basic in the relationship between men and robots."
"Er, I know," said the battle machine, "is it..." it tailed off into thought again.
"Just think," urged Marvin, "they left me, an ordinary, menial robot, to stop you, a gigantic heavy-duty battle machine, whilst they ran off to save themselves. What do you think they would leave me with?"
"Oooh, er," muttered the machine in alarm, "something pretty damn devastating I should expect."
"Expect!" said Marvin, "oh yes, expect. I'll tell you what they gave me to protect myself with shall I?"
"Yes, alright," said the battle machine, bracing itself.
Face it, a gun is purely designed to maim or kill. It is not a tool
i think we know who the tool is. My gun protects my stock from predators. Also, a high rate of Gun ownership does not automatically equate to a high level of gun(or other forms of) homicides.
There are plenty of statistics that prove this beyond a shadow of a doubt.
The problem in the US is the citizenry are bad-tempered, bureaucratic, officious and callous

You have me mixed up with someone else. Everyone has the right to protest. I was just pointing out that if a nuisance wasn't made in some cases then no one would even know anything had taken place.
Chill, it was just an example showing how a small number of people can cause a large disruption. Certainly your definition of free speech does not vary by how many people are involved? The fringe radicals who make up the G8 protesters are just as entitled to gather as the Democrats or Republicans are - but they can't just converge on a city and cause chaos... that's sabotage, not free speech.
If they didn't make a nuisance of themselves then they would not be reported on and the majority of the issues they are desperately trying to bring to an unaware populace would never be heard(negative publicity is at least some publicity).
Prior to the 1970's the majority of Western peoples had no idea that Palestine existed or any inkling of what was going on there. They still wouldn't have heard of them if their protests hadn't eventually caused disruption.
Your right to travel on public roads is not absolute, the right to protest on those roads is also part of their function. They are competing rights.
Wasn't it complimentary during G8?
I completely agree, which is why I fully support closing off roads to traffic for things like parades, rallies, protests, etc. But it has to be organized and it has to be safe.
And not heard about at all in the next city. If it's in one of those free-speech zones then it isn't even heard about on the next street.
I am an advocate of limiting free speech, yes. Moreso than you, it would seem.
And who decides just what defines a call to violence? "Kill that fag!" is obvious - what about "those fags will burn in hell!" To the right audience the latter is clearly incitement to put those fags in hell so they can get started burning.
"the second biggest item in the US budget (16.9%) is the Department of Defense,"
Hey, at least it is ONE govt. program that DOES stimulate the economy and put money back in the hands of the citizens. There is a lot of money to be made in working these military govt. contracts. At least they aren't wasted dollars
You need to read "The theory and practice of oligarchical collectivism" by Emmanuel Goldstein
How anyone could think that money pumped into the Department of War is good for the economy has truly drunk deeply of the Kool-Aid
I was dissing myself before any trolls tried!
If you are seriously interested in off-grid stuff you may be interested in this home made wind generator that uses a washing machine motor. It is simple to make and best of all quite cheap(like me).
It is my next project:)
Try living in the sticks sometime. There may not be as much to do but you can actually afford to live out here. Combine that with lower crime, less traffic, better air quality and less stress overall and it's a win-win.
I worked in an ungrateful IT industry for far too many years. I am now well out of it, building my own home, off the grid, enjoying using my computers instead of hating the sight of them. And have found that watching chickens is a lot more enjoyable than all that stuff in the city you can supposedly do (if you can afford the money to do it, or you can afford the time away from making the money to afford to pay to do it).

I think gamers are responsible for global warming
If the resolution was high enough, for instance, a pilot could use this to see underneath the plane, or in other directions normally blocked.
Do you mean a blind pilot? Wouldn't he just use a normal camera?
I thought you might be interested in this.

So is this the same as becoming a scientologist? or, is it less expensive?

Someone who finds all life meaningless isn't necessarily depressed. You have to wonder if they are correct.
I suspect it will be tasked with things that the normal CPU isn't the best solution for
I have service pack 1 active and running in 2009. Strangely I have quite a bit of uptime.
I wouldn't worry too much about that. This is the sort of poster that uses words like 'pedagogy' because he has a great, big, juicy brain.
Wouldn't you just remove the option from the 'save as' menu? Then when it is laughed out of court it could be restored by a very tiny online update.
