Paul,

There are home grown survivalists right here in your own backyard.

Yes Paul, I have seen the Preppers, yes they are a strange mob.
Some seem quite sensible but some are right over the top.
The one in the missile silo was interesting.

In the event of some sort of economic collapse the best situation would
be to be on about 5 acres say 10 to 20 km from a small town.
I think with that, you could grow enough food for a small family plus
have some over to trade for other goods.

people who believe the gw myth along with the something from nothing fantasy make a mockery of science. Their 'superiority'is sickening as they have to shut their eyes every time they see design and pretend the likes of snowmen have evolved.

Hi Spindoc,

You're a more trusting man than I am, Gunga Din!

"In the past three years, the number of climate-related lawsuits has ballooned, filling the void of political efforts in tackling greenhouse-gas emissions.Eyeing the money-spinning potential, some major commercial law firms now place climate-change litigation in their Internet shop window"

Sooner or later we are going to get some liberal minded judges who want to make a name for themselves and the dam will burst.

And it makes no difference that China or India or Saudi Arabia did it too. As with the issue for slavery compensation it will be all about getting whitey (how many references do you see on this UNESCO website to the much bigger and longer lasting Arab slave trade:http://webworld.unesco.org/slave_quest/en/links.html ?)

As for: <<“Ed Davey...said while countries such as the Philippines could expect help adapting to climate change, they would not get compensation for their losses...>>

Less than a hundred years stand between Arthur Caldwell saying 'I Stand By White Australia' and open-doors Kevin and Julia.

Runner, you are truly astounding. Ridiculing the science of global warming on the one hand as not being based on scientific evidence, when it clearly is. Then on the other hand accepting Biblical BS such as Noah's Ark etc. Mankind would be so much more advanced in his understanding of his true place within the Cosmos if it was not for the retardation imposed by the influence of the superstitions of the religious throughout the ages

This morning the Australian Department of Meteorology announced its findings for 2013.
The report shows 2013 to be the hottest year on record.
And a rise of one point something over our long term recorded average.
After next year breaks that record in this month actually,we will still see those who call us fools!

Paul Runner is an nightmare, he in my view is far from the Christian I knew, like it or not true Christians are nice people.
I first saw what is my view such bigotry in a Church, some of its followers and sadly in a relative.
It is my view such folk turn more from God than those Catholic Priests convicted of crimes against Children.
No easy task knowing some use and miss use the teachings of Christ and even speak in his name but in truth are no Christian.
