The fossil record indicates that it's happened more than just once. You mentioned the medieval warm up... There were once massive glaciers millions of years ago in California (the ones that carved out Yosemite). There is plenty of evidence of multiple warm ups.
More importantly, more work need to be done on the subject. Anyone who tells you the debate is over is a fraud. There is still a lot of science to do and a lot more to learn.
The smaller point is that it *could* be cyclical. The larger point is that we should not all be collectively closing out minds to alternative theories.
What do you think caused the the global warm-up 1500 years ago?
Common sense would tell you that second hand smoke is actually "relative safety". The question is weahter you are sharing a room with a smoker the size of a telephone booth or the size of an airport terminal. See?
We need to stop with demonizing of dissenters and start talking about the very real possibility that global warming is cyclical. There is actually quite a bit of evidence in the fossil record that this happened once before, 1500 years ago.
I work for NASA/JPL. Not all of us here have the same freedom. In fact, some admins here are forced to deal with software decisions that are made from the top down - by management - a poor way to run IT if you ask me.
Anyhow, I'm assuming you're a Marine, so let me just say, thank you for your service.
Are there any admins out there that actually prefer Microsoft web solutions over LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP)? Or do decisions like that come from on high in many organizations. As an admin who works for a government institution, I always have the freedom to select the software I want...
I have pity on those admin that are forced to maintain Microsoft solutions against their will

...is a great new book debunking climate change hysteria. The book brings much needed common sense to the whole discussion.

Paper ballots are just as tamper prone. This seems to be a fact that always goes unmentioned with these discussions.
Here is a link to some video of the game in action...

Sounds a little like pokemon to me.
...on the front page of slashdot. The end times are near.
How many more AUs to scientists think Voyager still has to travel before it reaches the edge, or do we not have a good estimation of that distance?
If I'm a space science noob does that make me a "Universal Noob"?
Hasn't this happened a few times already? Or am I thinking of a different distro?

Absolutely. That was kinda my point.
Right, time wasting is time wasting... Why did a court have to get involved?
Shouldn't an employer have the right to fire a worker who wastes too much time online?
To whoever modded my post as off topic, I WAS JOKEING! The Knoppix Live CD is a great "free" diagnostics tool for windows...
I thought the Knoppix Live CD was open source?!?
... They can't exist in the same room at the same time.
If most of the journalists at the NY-Times etc were, say, liberal, would that too constitute bias?
I for one welcome our new cyber-Monkey overlords.

When I first saw powerline's post today, I had to laugh out loud. We don't expect much from the old media anymore, but this is just ridiculous.
My question: Why does CBS rush these clearly faked documents to air when they won't even give the Swift Boat Vet's any time at all?
The same goes for the Today Show, and their running with Kitty's Kelly's (already debunked) book for three days next week?
Any way, hazaaa! for the New Media!!!
