  1. Is there any projection for a VLMC release? Merci.

  2. Re:So global warming started... on Global Warming Started 180 Years Ago Near Beginning of Industrial Revolution, Says Study (smh.com.au) · · Score: 1

    Repeat after me: There WAS no Medieval Warm Period and anthropogenic CO2 is much, much worse than natural CO2. It's evil, in fact!

  3. "Yes, it's true we don't care"

    No! You must care, all the time, about everything your self-defined moral superiors with social license tell you to care about! Otherwise, you are a bad person and therefore must be disparaged, marginalized and punished. Why do you hate the planet and all the good people on it who care more than you?

    "Saying "recorded history" to be 137 years..."

    Yes. The sophistry here is so blatant that it'd be hilarious if it weren't costing so much taxpayer money.

    Bingo. The CatastrophicClimateChange sophistry is unsustainable, but so many people are emotionally involved (not to mention making elons of government money from it) that it has great momentum.

    "indeed hotter than any time in the last 100,000 years"

    How long have "accurate" measurements been made? What kind of temperature measuring devices were in use 100 years ago? How reliable and accurate were they? How many locations had temperature measurement devices?

    I bet I know the answer, and it probably involves four words: fuck off shut up.

    This is already done for CO2 purification plants. Where do you think the CO2 for dry ice, carbonation, flash-freezing, etc. comes from? And don't forget that CO2 (that evil gas that's supposedly killing the planet) only makes up 0.04% of the atmosphere.

  16. Re:Love it and stay on Clinton Campaign Breached By Hackers · · Score: 1

    "Not sure why you think conservative = religious."

    Because it's intended as broad-brush, in-group signalling and a sneering slur against people who have non-"Progressive" values (lump 'em in with the strawman "religious wackos"). It's what they do, they're Progressives - they play the man, not the ball. Control the message, make the narrative. Ample use of sophistry, bait-and-switch, goalpost moving.

    Bye-bye, another Karma point. Oh, did I mention that they function in packs, displaying mob mentality and group think and drown out differing opinions?

    Of course there was! All this government-funded eco-insanity is predicated on the convenient fiction of CO2 being evil and causing the imminent destruction of the habitability of the planet. Without that, it all falls apart. We're seeing the whole thing start to unravel now due to reality reasserting itself over narrative and it ain't gonna be pretty.
