Global Warming: Policy-Driven Deception

[Theben]

Death threats= inconvenient phone calls? Dale, is that you?

[HalfLotus]

I love a good Dale joke. Almost as funny as you taking a disgraced and discredited tool like Jones at his word.

[DinoDoc]

From your link...

He remains at risk, still receiving death threats from around the world including two in the past week: “I was shocked. People said I should go and kill myself. They said that they knew where I lived. They were coming from all over the world.”

Given the fact that he and his colleagues have been found to have conspired to have violated the law, I really wouldn't put it past him to be lieing about this.

I'm just wondering what HL would do if the skeptic view becomes mainstream. Since he hasn't found an idle conspiracy theory unworthy to latch on to yet, will he suddenly reverse position? Your tinfoil hat doesn't work when everyone agrees with you!

Conspired to break the law!

Quite clearly.

If?

With only 26% of Brits supporting the AGW hypothesis, I'd say the skeptic viewpoint is very much mainstream. Numbers are under 50% for US atm too, I believe.

Putting AGW skeptics in the tinfoil hat category is ignorant, frankly. No doubt alarmists will cling to their cozy perceived herd for as long as possible, however.

Btw, the media reports are still saying that P. Jones has stepped down "temporarily", but there is no way the CRU is going to take him back with his credibility where it is. Zero chance of that happening. He'll be a windmill operator in Holland, if he's lucky.

And wait til Pachauri gets the boot, talk about a sinking alarmist ship.

I love it how you continue to use "alarmists" "hysterics" or "herd mentality" for everyone who doesn't follow your line of thinking, all btw expressions that show a clearly negative or even derogatory connotation, but start whining about a "personal attack".

[Arrian]

Unbelievable!

[HalfLotus]

"alarmists" "hysterics" or "herd mentality"

All accurate language.

Are we dead yet?

Where exactly did I raise an "alarm" over any issue here?

Your'e a kraut, so of course your vocabulary only consist of achtung, scheisse, bumsen, heil hi, halt and alarm yelled in a pitch voice. There are several documataries showing this

I'm skeptical (but hopeful) we're doin much to the atmosphere

a 1 1/2 to 2 F degree rise in temperatures over 150 years coming out of a mini ice age is to be expected. And the ice cores show the record is much more chaotic with wild and fast swings in climate that make a 2 degree rise look mild. Furthermore, a slightly thicker atmosphere with more ghgs should reduce the contrasts between air masses making storms less severe. A warmer wetter world is a good thing, we just gotta figure out what to do with rising seas. Maybe we can take advantage of the East African Rift Valley, hasten the inevitable encroachment by the ocean and improve the climate further into the African interior. Thats a pretty dry and desolate place, but we'd be submerging fossils of our hominid ancestors

Unfortunately you won't be the first to go. Some poor ****nick in the Sahel or in Bangladesh has a front row seat, but you don't care much about those people do you ?
