Yes m'lord, it would appear that the defense is perhaps set on attempting an insanity plea.

No m'lord, it is not amusing.

Sorry m'lord but I am having a slight difficulty in keeping a straight face but I assure you I am perfectly happy to continue.

It would appear after sifting through the grandstanding and delusional ranting that the defense witnesses have conceded that the remarks they attributed to Mr Pachauri are instead assumed 'intent' rather than direct quotations.

Indeed m'lord, one does hope they understand the gravity of their actions and how this must inevitably reflect poorly on the rest of their case.

Yes m'lord I also feel the court deserves an apology before we proceed any further and I give them the floor.

csteele,

As a prosecutor you are making a right prat of yourself, don’t give up your day job.

All OLO’ers have access to these quotes, should you wish to challenge these quotes you need to go back to the original authors and take the matter up with them.

The Hadley Centre/CRU records show no warming for 18 years (v.3) or 19 years (v.4),

The RSS satellite dataset shows no warming for 23 years (h/t to Werner Brozek for determining these values).

Phil Jones, EAU/CRU states under oath during UK parliamentary hearings 2010 states “There has been no statistically significant global warming since 1995”

IPCC’s climate “science” panel has admitted there has been no global warming for 17 years,

London Met Office admits no warming for 17 years

James Hansen, NASA’s GISS is in agreement Hadley Centre/CRU findings.

We all understand that these sources are the very sources that once had us convinced of Catastrophic Anthopological Global Warming that was inducing Climate Change and threatening all biological life forms. It doesn’t matter how long the pause in warming was. What is important is that during the period when there was actually no warming, we were told there was, this was an intentional self serving lie perpetrated to save face, as a direct result it has cost western democracies billions of dollars in unnecessary costs inflicted on working people.

They got it wrong, many suspected it was wrong and now we all know it was wrong because they have admitted it. For this they should, and may yet end up in gaol. One thing is for absolute certain; their careers are finished and rightly so.

On a legal note, when all of the above have admitted their guilt, there is no requirement for a prosecutor, guilty as admitted in submission to the DPP.

P.S. It is clear that you are very distressed that your own side has abandoned you. To which many might respond, tough, you should have been a bit smarter in the first place like skeptics.

Ha, ha, SPQR...this IS fun!

Since I've been removed from the courtroom - but have fortuitously found an open window into which I can quietly whisper, "Psst".

Psst...SPQR...how come I'm barred from bouncing Monckton's credibility around a bit, yet you get to raise the subject of Monbiot and Plimer? - or for that matter Mr Ahmadinejad?

Shouldn't you be starting yer own thread(s) too?

There's no point trying to argue the evidence with Poirot since she's already agreed that there is actually no evidence ever that will cause her to doubt her faith in the AGW story.

I used to think that there would come a time when the true believers would finally admit they were in error and this whole sorry tale could be left behind us with only historians left to ponder over how this mass hysteria came about. The current halt in temps had long been predicted and I figured the honest observers would reconsider their view.

But instead when there was a 10 yr halt we were told we'd need to have 13yrs before it was significant. Then when we had a 13yr halt, we were told it'd need to be 15yrs to be significant. Then when it was 15yrs we were told it'd need to be 17 yrs. Now we find that the spruikers and trough-feeders have decided to stop playing this game and instead to demand a 40 yrs halt to disprove their already disproven theories.
Its insane. It took ten years of warming for these scientists to go from a consensus that we were headed for an ice age to beleiving we are headed for a fiery future. A mere ten years to get the whole sorry saga going. But they now demand 40 years of unwarming to admit their error.

And the useful idiots nod their heads and go along with the priesthood.

So we are going to have to just wait for a new generation to come through whose careers and wealth are not wedded to the failed theory before we see sanity return. People in a centruy or so are gunna shake their heads in wonder at this, the same way as we struggle to understand the mass hysteria that was the tulipomania.

mhaze,

Where did I agree - link please?

More of the same...."skeptics" just say stuff, most of which has little relation to actuality. As in, for instance, "I'm a member of the House of Lords" or "I've been 'appointed' an expert IPCC reviewer".

Second nature, don'tchaknow :)

I see we're still overlooking the part which goes "...plateaued at record levels...." As in each plateau is higher than the one before.

Going up?

Lastly, I can't let the opportunity slip by to give mhaze this page's RJ (religious jargon) award for his timely insertion of the word "priesthood" in his last post.....congrats and all that.

Poirot, csteele, qanda, wobbles and warmair,

Any reasonable person might ask the question “what do you want?” I honestly cannot answer this question?

What do you want OLOers to say or do? You seem to be the hard core remnants of the once mighty. You accused others of being deniers, flat earthers, loonies, mentally ill and a danger to society in general.

Now you have all placed yourselves in the firing line for the very same criticisms you so regularly dished out to others.

You refute the reality of what your own acolytes are now offering, you duck, weave, obfuscate and deny. You have no science left because those that gave it to you have recanted.

I know nothing of your personal circumstances but what I can say is that for those of us who have families, children and grandchildren, we all know the meaning of compromise. Having families means that as circumstances change, as society changes and as social circumstances change, we also have to change. If we don’t change we become isolated from that new reality.

You are all faced with a new reality, not a comfortable reality because to move with it you must also move. If you cannot or will not move you are all destined to be consigned to the historical rubbish bin.

It is sad that having been sold on a concept, an ideology, a set of attitudes, values and beliefs, you are, for whatever reason, unable to move as circumstances change.

As parents we all know that our kids demand branded shoes, tee shirts, iPhones and a host of other “contemporary” accoutrements. We don’t and can’t deny them because to do so compromises our acceptance of modern reality. Like spoilt children, you have enjoyed a disproportionate amount of exposure for your “wants”. This has left you all with the distorted view that your minority “wants” are greater than the collective good.

You are all like spoilt children and we don’t know what you want. Now, because you are so insecure, we don’t care.
