Hey, I completely forgot to ask: when Greenland was ice-free during the MWP - where did the fucking water go? There's now about 23 feet sea-level rise worth of ice on Greenland - IOW that's the amount sea levels should have been higher in the MWP than now. Just 4 feet, and London would be beach property.
Savant syndrome, sometimes abbreviated as savantism, is not a recognized medical diagnosis, but researcher Darold Treffert describes it as a rare condition in which persons with developmental disorders (including autism spectrum disorders) have one or more areas of expertise, ability, or brilliance that are in contrast with the individual's overall limitations.
Listen, the fact that you keep confusing the ice core data from the center of Greenland with the ice near the coast despite being told several times can only mean one of two things: either you are an imbecile or you are ten times more dishonest than all of the things alleged in Climategate. And you even pretend that the article you link to says "800 years" instead of "within the past million years". Creationism at its best.
And you can't really even call it stealing. Other players GAVE their isk to the banking corporation with the understanding that they could take it back with interest later. Since there is no in-game way to enforce this sort of relationship, doing this with people you have no reason to trust is just like throwing your money away.
Thanks for the confirmation - you can argue with Climate skeptics the same way you argue with Young Earth Creationists: they will keep coming up with new "proofs" that they are right. Yes, Ladies and Gentelmen: Greenland is covered with 8000 feet of ice, and below it is the seed that God, errm, Erik the Red himself planted 800 years ago. And even the WW2 planes are used by Creationists: http://creationwiki.org/WWII_airplanes_are_now_beneath_thousands_of_%22annual%22_ice_layers.
It seems like you're skipping over a step. What about the model that was in existence back in the late 30s? I thought Hitler was elected as Chancellor, not President. And what about the reunification of Germany after the fall of the Soviet Union? Does all of Germany use the same sort of system that West Germany used, or is it closer to the system that Hitler scammed?
Well, Reichspräsident Hindenburg actually kept Hitler somewhat at bay, but after he died in 1934, Hitler took over the office, but actually called himself Fuehrer instead. Only shortly before his suicide he declared Dönitz his successor as (and only as) president. The reunited Germany's government system is AFAIK identical to that of West Germany.
I feel compelled to close my post with a few lines from the song "Lasse red'n" form German punk band "Die Ärzte":
Most people have their education from the BILD.
And that consists, who wouldn't know that,
Of fear, hate, tits and the weather report.
Truer words have never been spoken about a tabloid.
Talking about censorship in Germany: (at least) one private radio station with links to the owner of BILD has cut that verse from the song in all airings. But that's okay, because it's private.
I googled it and it looks legit... here is a more specific attribution:
Mein Kampf, Adolf Hitler, Publ. Houghton Miflin, 1943, Page 403
No, only the first sentence is legit. The rest is from a fictional letter from Hitler by Rabbi Daniel Lapin. He quotes (in "quotes") that first sentence with a footnote with exactly the attribution you gave - the rest he makes up.
Greenland was once a GREENland with vegetation very similar to what we still find on the East Coast of North America today. Ice core samples clearly proves this. In the times of the Vikings, the Northwest passage was ice free.
Okay, where to begin. Yes, Greenland was once green - on a few selected coastal areas in the south, just as it is today. And what exactly do these ice cores show? That there was no ice in Greenland a 800 years ago? And oh yeah, citation desperately needed.
I examine this proposition now using statistics for the combination of world energy
production a (Annual Energy Review 2006) and real global economic production
P (United Nations 2007) (expressed here in fixed 1990 US dollars) for the 36 year
interval between 1970 to 2005 for which these statistics are currently available. ... Of course it is possible that this observed result only holds over the 36-year
period for which global energy consumption statistics are available, but it is expected
theoretically; the period examined covers over half of total historical growth in a
and C, and two thirds of P; and, the observational uncertainty is small enough to
plausibly reflect errors or noise in historical data.
Oil won't just "run out" one day, it will gradually become harder and harder to find. We will slowly deplete the "easy" sources of oil, and gradually move on to harder and harder oil.
Your argument is actually "We will always find an even harder way to squeeze oil out of rocks"?
They were complained about adverts for the iPhone - it was ironic that with such a great product they had to stoop to such misrepresentation.
Oh come on - they showed something you could actually do with an iPhone, just not in the 23 seconds it took in the video. Adds where the phones literally pick the sun out of the sky are however accepted as okay, just like that spot where the train station is quickly filled with people just because somebody uses this rad new phone - because the whole idea is stupid to begin with, nobody cares that you couldn't gather a crowd in 30 seconds.
If Greenland was so green, why did Leif Erikson (it was his dad Erik the Red who discovered Greenland) bother to travel over a thousand miles south-west (emphasis on south) over the Atlantic to find a nicer place for a new settlement?

So why is Comcast allowed to do it then?
Probably because it's in their Terms & Conditions somewhere.

The almost complete lack of errors and corrections in the text strongly suggest that it's nonsense rather than any kind of encoded message.
You mean just like those funny "Hieroglyphics" that are supposed to be the written ancient Egyptian language. What a hoot.

Oh dear - you believe freedom of speech and freedom of the press have no relationship.
*sigh* silly little boy.
Well, you can also write/press "swastika" until you stop being a silly little boy.
I don't think that word means what you think it means. "Hardly" means "almost not", but I'm quite sure you wanted to say "very much" ...
Well, hardly.

The correct response is: I want no outlawing of ANY speech. /quote>
Nobody is keeping you from saying "swastika" until you turn blue in the face.

I'm sure more remember the second, 'cause the gun is mightier than the word.

Hey, the better working economic models all accept the simple physical rule "What comes up, must go down."
Oil won't just "run out" one day, it will gradually become harder and harder to find. We will slowly deplete the "easy" sources of oil, and gradually move on to harder and harder oil.
Your argument is actually "We will always find an even harder way to squeeze oil out of rocks"?
c) New Zealand average temperature graphs - high-school style 'cooking the graph' to match expectations
Ignoring the obvious warming trend since the 1930s in your own graph, that's what it is.
There's that old hat again - we all know that it's easier to just get funded by the oil companies by saying it's not their fault.
