Poirot

one of the remaining faithful disciples despite the sinking ship. YOu are loyal, I'll give you that much. As for your science credentials, they have not taugh you to reason.

Yeah, thanks for that, runner.

You being a such a font of reason...Lol!

The bottom line is that most of Lyn's points related to the political machinations afoot in this country and elsewhere to relegate climate science to a "scam".

It is pointless to argue the veracity of scientific conclusions when the starting point is such.

I see Johnny "no-science" Howard has stepped into the breach. stating as much and that on this subject he prefers to rely on "instinct".

We a have a new article thread by this gentleman today:

"Ray Evans is Secretary of the Lavoisier Group Inc. He is also an adviser to Bert Kelly Research Centre."

So OLO is not the place to discuss the veracity or not of scientific conclusions on global warming.

It's a place to challenge or promote politically charged AGW denial.

Nothing to do with the science whatsoever.

The author says this:

"Even though this economy is destroying the habitability of the planet and even as it approaches its own demise: like a virus slowly killing off its own host."

This comparison of humanity to a virus is common amongst the misanthropes who masquerade as alarmists; see:

AS you can see the author shares the mindset of those who compare the human race to a parasite, a disease, a cancer etc.

AGW is a failed theory. What is obnoxious is its adherents who continue to mask their fundamental hatred of humankind under the pretence of caring about this planet.

Cohenite.......you don't seriously believe that at all. The ABC this morning had the Greens leader pointing out quite clearly that Tony abbot has not got the future of the next generation in mind at all, not surprisingly considering the here and now is the most turning point in our earth history.

If some want to play three wise monkeys, don’t play with our children’s futures, and more to the point….don’t blow smoke up our you know what’s.

It should be made standard, that no-one in the political circles be over the age of 55…..why you might ask……people of old age have less to loose and more to gamble.

Come now Planet, you don't seriously believe anything you hear from the Greens OR the ABC?

And, if you hear it from the Greens, reported on the ABC it's doubly doubtful!

Come now Planet, you don't seriously believe anything you hear from the Greens OR the ABC?

Oh what should be, the course of actions be then? or just another great opinion from the monkey brothers/sisters:)

SPQR....give me your future forecasts for the next 50 years, then I'll give you mine.
