A century of civil liberties : Comments

By Daemon Singer, published 6/3/2013

It's only when we sit and contemplate what life was like before 9/11, that we realise the damage done by those planes.

Hi Geoff of Perth,

It's interesting how any disagreement can earn the term 'denier' and how the word 'denier' has become so pejorative. Perhaps it is an attempt to dog-whistle Peter or Paul or whoever, 'denying' Christ three times. I don't know, not being Christian.

Cohenite could just as easily accuse you of being a 'plateau-denier' but his fundamental decency prevents him.

But he who asserts, Geoff, must prove. It's not up to a dis-believer to have to demonstrate, chapter and verse, why he disagrees, but it is the responsibility of the asserter to 'prove' his assertions.

Unless, of course, you choose to be a 'proof-denier'.

Well, it's Saturday afternoon, there's not much on the box. Not until ABC-24 starts its coverage of the WA election. Can't wait.

Cheers,

Joe

"A recent French scientific paper has shot all of you skeptics out of the water."

Well Geoff, what was it, details please.

Since when has the proof of denial been the responsibiliy of camp?

Come on Cohenite, if you know so much about climate change, as you believe you do, you should know exactly which peer reviewed French scientific paper I am referring to!

If not, it is obvious you are nowhere near close to being up to date with the most recent scientific proof that dispels climate skeptics like yourself!

Try google, thats what its for. Remember its not up to me to provide all the facts, you need to learn to do a little research, like the rest of us.

Right, so I have to Google French a paper which proves AGW?

How old are you, 10?

Produce it or be called out as a troll.

On the off chance you are talking about the one which spliced the modern instrument record to a smoothed proxy history, with the proxy record mixed with flat random noise to depress well accepted temperature levels during the MWP and Holocene and then extrapolated from a regional proxy to a global temperature, then, yeah, I do know it and it makes Mann's crap look like gold.

Poirot; in your own words tell us what Tamino said.

cohenite,

"Poirot, in your own words tell us what Tamino said."

And if I don't?....will you call me out as a troll?

(Little French detective shaking in boots here:)

Nah, you know what Tamino was saying. He was saying that ordinary intelligent folk sometimes think they understand what they are talking about regarding climate science....

.....even though they don't.
