An apt quote!!!
QUOTE: "If scientists say they are 100% sure, or that they are
absolutely certain about the cause and effect and ignore variables which
might show that they could be wrong, they are practicing junk science.
Junk science happens when scientists believe something based on just
some of what they see."

CO2 increases are caused by Global temperature increase
The recent Global temperature decrease will show in the
2008 CO2 data. |

Richard Feynman did this more thorougly in his description of
"cargo cult" science:
http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek/cargocul.htm
......
"But there is one
feature I notice that is generally missing in cargo cult science.
That is the idea that we all hope you have learned in studying
science in school--we never explicitly say what this is, but just
hope that you catch on by all the examples of scientific
investigation. It is interesting, therefore, to bring it out now
and speak of it explicitly. It's a kind of scientific integrity,
a principle of scientific thought that corresponds to a kind of
utter honesty--a kind of leaning over backwards. For example, if
you're doing an experiment, you should report everything that you
think might make it invalid--not only what you think is right about
it: other causes that could possibly explain your results; and
things you thought of that you've eliminated by some other
experiment, and how they worked--to make sure the other fellow can
tell they have been eliminated.
Details that could throw doubt on your interpretation must be
given, if you know them. You must do the best you can--if you know
anything at all wrong, or possibly wrong--to explain it. If you
make a theory, for example, and advertise it, or put it out, then
you must also put down all the facts that disagree with it, as well
as those that agree with it. There is also a more subtle problem.
When you have put a lot of ideas together to make an elaborate
theory, you want to make sure, when explaining what it fits, that
those things it fits are not just the things that gave you the idea
for the theory; but that the finished theory makes something else
come out right, in addition.
In summary, the idea is to try to give all of the information to
help others to judge the value of your contribution; not just the
information that leads to judgment in one particular direction or
another."
One way to spot "junk science", or junk arguments in general, is
a failure to acknowledge the opposition- A. McIntire |

This just indicates that you don't understand how science works.
Science doesn't prove anything; evidence does that. Scientific

uncertainty in science, which people like you use to try and tear down
the advances in understanding that have been made. You want to throw
out the consensus of the experts in the field because you don't like
the answer. Well, guess what. Science works towards answers that are
accurate, whether you find them palatable or not.
As to balance of evidence; every national science organization, every
international science organization, every relevant professional
organization, and even EXXON agrees with the IPCC assessment. When
you can find a single scientific body of national or international
standing that disagrees with the IPCC, you just might have something.
But as it stands, I'm sitting with a straight flush, and you've got a
2, 3, 4, 5 and 7, mixed suits. And claiming that there's actually a
conspiracy among the entire worlds scientific community is so
intellectually vacuous that being a young earth creationist would be a

No, it was observed long before the scientific method was developed.
It was found with science to be round.
Either when we took a picture from space or before.
No, the Greeks (I think) figured it out using basic geometry, a couple
thousand years before the development of the scientific method.
Quote: Global warming is like a flat
earth.... a hypothesis, until science proves it one way or the other.
It's not warming.... in the 1970's we were hearing about an ice age
from the same kind of sources.
Just so you know; Newsweek isn't a scientific journal. There was some
speculation, but far from a consensus. No treaties, no conventions,
no G8 summits, no institutional pronouncements. The two situations
are very, very different....not that you seem to care about
intellectual honesty...

But I wasn't the one that suggested the earth being flat was a lack of

Neither did I...guess you can add functional illiteracy to your

Where did I call it a conspiracy? Do you even understand the meaning
of the word "honesty"? |

Gosh, did I write that, it is great, it represents exactly what
I think, although the "massive conspiracy" is different than the usual
planning of a conspiracy, rather than all participants trying to harm
others, they all think they are "saving the planet".
So, instead of a conspiracy among the scientific community, you just
think that they are all deluded retards.

Global Warming: The Origin and Nature of the Alleged Scientific Consensus
Richard S. Lindzen
Thanks for posting that, it is amazing that this charade
has gone on so long, and from all appearances the media and the general
public is still wondering what all the fuss is about.
There will no doubt be big reactions once it is clear that
it is a massive conspiracy by retards who are so egotistical as to
believe the public is less than literate.
And the truth is even worse than Dr. Lindzen states,
because the "average global temperature" is totally meaningless.
The great bulk of the ocean is cold, very cold, and it
would take an enormous amount of thermal energy to raise all the mass of
the ocean to 15 C.
And the great mass of the solid Earth is hot, very hot, and
the small amount of mass in the atmosphere and the thin layer of the
surface that is changed daily or seasonally by solar radiation can't
possibly be significant in the total energy contained.
All the talk of an average annual global temperature is
just plain unadulterated bullshit, spread by retards and gullible fools
who have a short spiritual experience in thinking they are saving the
planet as if they were the hero in a catastrophe movie.

Now, if any of the AGW nuts or the leftists posing as AGW nuts
want to point out anything in my above quote that is far from the
truth, please do.____________________________________________________
Fool, the core of the planet and the deep ocean isn't considered by
anyone I've heard of to be part of the surface of the planet.
Additionally, understanding of how the climate works has significantly
improved in the decade and a half from when the article was written.
Just because you haven't kept up with the research doesn't mean that
the research is wrong.

I have confidence in the scientific method and the process of peer
review. Not perfect confidence (science doesn't work like that), but
certainly enough to warrant taking out some metaphorical insurance.
I have confidence in science too, once it matures, maybe AGW even
has more basis for belief than aether theory, but it can be just as wrong,
or more likely, almost wrong or only a tiny bit right, OR THE OPPOSITE.
Fine, what level of confidence among the scientific community would
you consider good enough for you, and why should your personal
uninformed position be given any credibility? Do you advocate waiting
until every last person on the planet agrees? Do you think being
popular would make the results more accurate? Does an unpopular
finding make the finding wrong in your world?
Quote: Change your userID, you seem opinionated.
Fool, yours fits like a glove.
Yours doesn't, unless you straddle the fence a little more obvious.
Fool, a neutralino is a theoretical particle thought to make up the
bulk of dark matter in the universe.
Quote: Look, last August I experienced the longest spell of above 90
temperatures in 80 years, the driest month for the region, but not a
single day was within 6 degrees of the record high for any day of the
month.
Some day, you should learn the difference between climate and weather,
as well as the basic fact that the weather you had last August may not
actually be representative for the weather for the rest of the planet
for the rest of the year.
Quote: When the articles written are given a title before the data
is presented, then they become agenda driven, and authors working for
a man who has made his preferences known, they will pacify him in order
to hold their job and keep the peace.
You really don't understand how peer review works, do you.
Quote: A conspiracy by any name you want to give it, sheep with a
known sheepherder.
And some of those sheepherders names are Timothy Ball, Robert Carter,
Vincent Grey, Fred Singer, Richard Lindzen.....so feel free to keep
bleating about how the worlds scientific community is involved in a
massive conspiracy.

the answer. Well, guess what. Science works towards answers that are
accurate, whether you find them palatable or not.
As to balance of evidence; every national science organization, every
international science organization, every relevant professional
organization, and even EXXON agrees with the IPCC assessment. When
you can find a single scientific body of national or international
standing that disagrees with the IPCC, you just might have something.
But as it stands, I'm sitting with a straight flush, and you've got a
2, 3, 4, 5 and 7, mixed suits. And claiming that there's actually a
conspiracy among the entire worlds scientific community is so
intellectually vacuous that being a young earth creationist would be a
step up.
You should quote where somebody claimed a conspiracy if you
comment on it.
Your exact words were "massive conspiracy by retards who are so
egotistical as to believe the public is less than literate."

But was my words in this thread?
Gosh, did I write that, it is great, it represents exactly what
I think, although the "massive conspiracy" is different than the usual
planning of a conspiracy, rather than all participants trying to harm
others, they all think they are "saving the planet".
Let's read that again;

Thanks for posting that, it is amazing that this charade
has gone on so long, and from all appearances the media and the general
public is still wondering what all the fuss is about.
There will no doubt be big reactions once it is clear that
it is a massive conspiracy by retards who are so egotistical as to
believe the public is less than literate.
And the truth is even worse than Dr. Lindzen states,
because the "average global temperature" is totally meaningless.
The great bulk of the ocean is cold, very cold, and it
would take an enormous amount of thermal energy to raise all the mass of
the ocean to 15 C.
And the great mass of the solid Earth is hot, very hot, and
the small amount of mass in the atmosphere and the thin layer of the
surface that is changed daily or seasonally by solar radiation can't
possibly be significant in the total energy contained.
All the talk of an average annual global temperature is
just plain unadulterated bullshit, spread by retards and gullible fools
who have a short spiritual experience in thinking they are saving the
planet as if they were the hero in a catastrophe movie.

Now, if any of the AGW nuts or the leftists posing as AGW nuts
want to point out anything in my above quote that is far from the
truth, please do.____________________________________________________
Quote: GW "science" is far from "accurate", air temperatures near the surface
can vary over large ranges even when the same amount of energy is involved,
and only idiots or agenda driven nuts would place extreme confidence in
the accuracy of averaged and rounded data with results within a one unit
spread.
I have confidence in the scientific method and the process of peer
review. Not perfect confidence (science doesn't work like that), but
certainly enough to warrant taking out some metaphorical insurance.
I have confidence in science too, once it matures, maybe AGW even
has more basis for belief than aether theory, but it can be just as wrong,
or more likely, almost wrong or only a tiny bit right, OR THE OPPOSITE.
Quote: Change your userID, you seem opinionated.
Fool, yours fits like a glove.
Yours doesn't, unless you straddle the fence a little more obvious.
Look, last August I experienced the longest spell of above 90
temperatures in 80 years, the driest month for the region, but not a
single day was within 6 degrees of the record high for any day of the
month.
When the articles written are given a title before the data
is presented, then they become agenda driven, and authors working for
a man who has made his preferences known, they will pacify him in order
to hold their job and keep the peace.
A conspiracy by any name you want to give it, sheep with a
known sheepherder.
Just how retarded do people have to be to think they are
saving the planet. Weeds may grow if you don't plant grass,
but how much grass can you plant and keep mowed? |
