The Gruaniad is known as the “Gruaniad” because of their long history of incompetence in proof reading.

As Forest Gumpp correctly observed “On December 8, 3009 56 newspapers in 45 countries took the unprecedented step of speaking with one voice through a common editorial”

Doubtless “reality” will prevail to ensure

“If we, with such different national and political perspectives, can agree on what must be done then surely our leaders can too.”

is likewise as rigorously tainted and error inclusive as the gruaniads proof reading.

I must admit, I love all this AGW hype…

I have even developed an “interest” in a particular “authority”, which is attempting to find a niche in the regulatory market….

Well I might as well have a bet each way when the trillions of dollars prize money, going begging; rather than leave it to be squandered by a bunch of "bodgey & bodgey" scientists, left-wing political shysters and self-righteous and over-opinionated environmentalists.

the strength of capitalism is lways to see the opportunity which, in this case, the lefties have made for us ....


we all know that whilst AGW / ETC has been set up as a very clumsy attempt at


"Socialism by Stealth"


It will all end up (what it was doomed to become)


"the Newest opportunity for the imaginative capitalist"


Now, where did I leave my "moral compass".....


ah here it is... tucked away, inside my "monopoly" game box...

I am now confused Col, is it Socialism or "imaginative Capitalism" that's going on here?

or are you saying that the Socialists, while stealthy, will fall prey to the imaginative capitalists?

So Leigh has been "listening"?

He *heard* "a pro-warming scientist advise repeatedly that we were experiencing the third highest temperatures on record."

The inimitable Leigh says "Not the HIGHEST temperatures on record; the THIRD highest." (his emphasis)

He confounds his *hearing* with this gem:

"This admission from a proponent of global warning that temperatures have been higher in the past than they are now (as dissenters have always said) casts further doubts on the motives of the eager beavers of the climate change industry."

Leigh of course is a graduate of the old school - you know, the dumb-nuts that think global warming means higher temperatures each year.

Well, according to *Leigh's Logic*, I am a dissenter too. Perhaps I can even be ordained by the Bishops and Abbotts in their church as a reward?

I just love that post...

'"Socialism by Stealth"

It will all end up (what it was doomed to become)

"the Newest opportunity for the imaginative capitalist"

Now, where did I leave my "moral compass".....

ah here it is... tucked away, inside my "monopoly" game box...'

Time will tell. You WILL see.
And all your comments and opinions will be stored here for us to remember who it was that stopped action being taken.
Then maybe we should make those who delayed action be the ones to pay?
Just have a think about that for a second. I know where I want to be standing.
The backlash against the deniers will be fierce if they are wrong and our cities begin to drown.
Time will tell!

That's interesting mikk. So a few posters on OLO are responsible for no action being taken by anyone on climate change. I had no idea they were so powerful.

It seems pretty obvious your only conviction on the subject is motivated by a fear of people tut tutting you in the event of one of these disaster porn movies becoming the reality. Hardly admirable.

I'm sure the 5% cut in our 0.5% of the worlds emissions will save us. Don't you.
