    Third, it is trivially proven that there is no genuine consensus among scientists [climatedepot.com] that the warming is caused by humanity, or what to do about it. There is at best a preponderance of opinion among scientists that it is caused by humanity. It isn't necessarily clear how strongly those views are held.

    From the link: "The well over 1,000 dissenting scientists are almost 20 times the number of UN scientists (52) who authored the media-hyped IPCC 2007 Summary for Policymakers."

    Oh wow!!! LOL!

    Parent asked: BTW, what does tobacco have to do with this?

    I pointed out that there is a connection (link to article showing that the same anti-science agenda think tanks which worked to discredit and obscure studies linking lung cancer to tobacco smoke exposure are now campaigning agains AGW).

    pro-AGW: $50 Billion, while the other side got skeptical of AGW: $19 Million.

    There are links to references and such on that page. I think my work here is done.

    Are you serious? Some industry-sponsored (Heartland Institute) aussie climate scientist pulled that number out of his ass (at least there is no telling where it came from).

    Another funny from your link:
    The U.S. alone has spent $30 billion on federal programs directly or indirectly related to global warming in just the last six years, according to one estimate.

    ...which in the original Fox News article turns out to be:
    The Bush administration, after all, is by far the largest funder of global warming alarmism, pouring about $30 billion of federal dollars into climate- and alternative energy-related research over the last six years.

    LOL?

    We're trying to slant a news story for a predesired outcome here that conservatives are idiot windows users!!!

    You're an idiot. The numbers which GP posted do nothing to disprove this.
    Of course there are more liberal PC users. There are twice as many PC users as Mac users.
    The numbers for non-liberals are (% of sample population): 33.3% non-liberal PC users and 10.5% non-liberal Mac users.

    And at the end of it I still don't know how abstract a picture should be - unless you count "just abstract enough" as an answer!

    Oh really? According to an independent (can't be said of your sources) report nuclear energy is not cheap and probably never will be. (See The World Nuclear Industry Status Report 2009 [PDF]).

    ouput: do i even need to provide a reference on this one? nuclear power runs whole nations such as france

    Such as? France is the only country that's consuming mostly nuclear energy (see the Statistical Review of World Energy 2009 that I linked to some posts above). Most of the worlds consumed energy is oil, gas and coal. Nuclear energy isn't even close.

    it would seem good sir, that you are the one spreading bullshit. I call you out on your anti nuke nonsense, you know nothing about the subject past what greenpeace has shoved down your throat.
