& "gen" implies creation/origin (e.g. psychogenic, somatogenic, etc.) Words like that should be easy to guess the first time.

You'd think...

So basically the usual idiots on Poly are against the concept of Global Warming? Thanks

Well, there was a spot in Poly FF 2

Global Warming is occurring and is anthropogenic

Global Warming is occurring, but is the natural cycle of things

Both I imagine, but the second is the motor. If the oribtal characteristics were conducive to an ice advance, we'd be freezing our butts off now instead of complaining about pollution.

If...

ice world or warm world, I'm glad we're alive now rather than 400 years ago. We got a slight taste of what ice world is like a few centuries ago.

Posters at Poly lie?

Let's make the world into a Kevin Costner flop instead...

I notice none of the people who don't believe global warming is a man made phenomenon actually had the guts to post to this thread saying so...

I don't have the scientific background to say either way. I'll trust that the scientific community has it right, but I'm not foaming at the mouth over the issue. Besides, moderating our output couldn't hurt anything.

This is a MOBIUS thread and even a pretty old one - do you really expect anyone taking it serious ?

[Zkribbler]

By the way, the headlines in today's L.A. Times reads:'

"No Stopping Climate Shift, U.N. Study Says.
It strongly links human activity to global warming, which will 'continue for centuries.'"

Is this a reference to the IPCC "short story" ? The one that just has ben released aimed against politicians and medias based on scientific documentaion that has to be adjusted so it matches this short story before release ?

Irrelevant.

However I shall take this mini personal attack as proof that you are one of those blinkered individuals that does not take climate change seriously...

Then you are totally wrong - I take climate change very serious - I just take the scientific road, not the political.

Little do you realise what a total ignorant dork you've just made yourself sound...
