By Ian Castles, published 8/8/2008

The recent CSIRO/BOM 'Drought Exceptional Circumstances Report' was accepted by government with no external scrutiny: public policy should be made based on this?

Q&A makes this vacuous observation ... "Current climate change is but a symptom". What does he mean exactly ..... that change when it comes to climate or weather is a sickness or something sinister that can be avoided? lol

Barry Brook is out and about with his upcoming free public seminar series preaching ... "out to educate and raise awareness" with naivety like “Will it cost the earth to avoid climate change?”. What does he mean ..... that change when it comes to climate can be avoided or has never happened before or can be stopped? lol

I simply see our mind, our spirit, as inseparable from our body, which is inseparable from our environment, our geography, our planet, our solar system and the universe. Q&A, Brook and Al-AGWers are exceptions for there we see a disconnected virtuous humanity as like a parasite living on a host. This mind only belief, assumes with anthropogenic grandeur a virtuous but blinded task of dismantling all the elements of legitimate science. Obfuscation, manipulation, dishonesty and silencing of dissent are not elements of legitimate science. All we see here involves an outcome directed pseudo science trying to force/fudge raw data to conform to something that is expected to be seen and only i might add, with an hypothesis based expediently on but twenty years of the late 20th century warming.

We will never have politicians or scientists of substance, integrity and intellect unless the public have the same.
