#1 using science, or something that resembles science

Ummmm, no. This crap resembles science kinda like the way my old Mazda resembles a Ferrari.

#4 IMO it still comes down to there is NO SCIENTIFIC CONSENSUS on the Sun's behavior, nor on its role, etc. as per effects on Local, Global Environment.

In any case, NATURAL OR MAN-MADE, GW IS NOT A GOOD REASON ENOUGH TO IMPOSE NATIONAL, GLOBAL SOCIALIST-GOVTIST ORDER + OWG + POLICE-WELFARE STATE, ETC, WIDOUT A POPULAR VOTE.

LEST WE FERGIT, THE US-WORLD LEFTS HAVE HISTORICALLY ALWAYS PROMOTED THEMSELVES AS THE "TRUE DEFENDERS/PROTECTORS" OF THE POPULAR VOTE + "WILL OF THE PEOPLE", as compared to the Right or Center-Right.

#5 Actually, we were afraid of global cooling in the 1970s. Anyone else remember "the new ice age," "nuclear winter," "shortening growing seasons," etc.?

#6 WAFF > [Poster Analysis] I WILL PROVE WID A CALCULATION THAT GLOBAL WARMING IS NOT CAUSED BY [Man's]BURNING OF FOSSIL FUELS.

WAFF POSTER attempts to mathematically show other WAFF'ers that any simul burning of all of the World's known fossil fuel reserves + consequent release of gases into the atmosphere will NOT significantly increase CO2, etc. to dangerous levels???

#7 Oh, yeah, I remember, Tom. Particularly memorable is the Time magazine cover story about "The Coming Ice Age."

That's one (of many) reason I don't take the Warmenists seriously - they don't seem to understand (or more likely are unwilling to admit, because then there's no money and power in it for them) that the climate cycles. Not a damn one of them seems to know about the Medieval Warm Period or the Little Ice Age.

Educated ignoramuses, the lot of 'em. :-(
