oh, and : 'you don't question your conclusions. you're not looking to discuss, but to coerce. this is why people seek out "customized" news.' I have public health care, and I like it, I certainly don't want that option taken away from me. that's what at centre for your citizens: more options.

1/from the wikipedia article : "greenhouse gases trap heat within the surface-troposphere system" that's proven; and more CO2 is more heat trapped, it's as simple as that. 2/CO2 concentration Changes through humans, the CO2 produced by burning oil and coal doesn't magically disappear.
1/the greenhouse effect warms the earth. (it would be around 15-20C colder.) 2/we spew the greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. (see : amount of coal and oil burned, we can quantify that) 3/somehow more greenhouse gases don't increase the temperature further ??? that needs extraordinary evidence.
from wikipedia, i pulled this sorta-definition : 'A machine is any device that uses energy to perform some activity' I guess the oxygen is pressurised, so it has energy, and it will be used to force-feed him oxygen... And i think the balloon is a machine too...
And at the moment, a number in a bank account sure is wealth.

Melchett: Is this true Blackadder? Did Capt. Darling poo-poo you? Blackadder: Well, perhaps a little. Melchett: Well then damn it all what more evidence do you need? The poo-pooing alone is a court martial offense! Blackadder: I can assure you, sir, that the poo-pooing was purely circumstantial. Melchett: Well I hope so,...Blackadder, you know, if there's one thing I've learned from being in the army, it's never ignore a poo-poo. I knew a major, got poo-pood made the mistake of ignoring the poo-poo. He poo-pood it: Fatal error. Becuase it turned out all along that the soldier who poo-pood him had been poo-pooing alot of other officers who poo-pood their poo-poos. In the end we had to disband the regiment. Morale totally destroyed.....................by poo-poo.
