What ended the Ice Age?

The gas emitted by meat-eating humans. ;)

Naw, Naw, Naw! You got it all wrong! This is how it happened, by Al gore:
Back in the late Pliestocene epoch of the Quaternary period of the Cenozoic era a man named OOG invented the wheel. He was rolling it around one day when his first cousin AAAK said, “Hey OOG, let’s build a motor for this wheel!” Hence the infernal, internal combustion engine was born, thanks to a couple of knuckle-dragging rednecks! (To this day, there are still parts to a Mustang GT in their front yard!)

According to Algore it was that infernal, internal combustion engine. Humans are diabolical, aren’t we.

“Weather isn’t going to go away because of climate change.”

Another GREAT Goreism! teehee! Almost as good as his creation of the internet.
I say FOLLOW THE MONEY!! Gore wants everyone to invest in his carbon footprint offset risky scheme: that’s what his manmade global warming scam is all about. He is THE MOST TRANSPARENT FLIMFLAM, SCAMING CONARTIST I have EVER seen.

Ozone is bad good …forget ozone. Carbon Dioxide is a poison essential gas. Pay no attention to those clouds…WE control the weather!!!

Everywhere else in the universe such a thing is impossible because the law of conservation is in effect.

Heh, that reminds me of this quote from My Cousin Vinny

Well, I guess the laws of physics cease to exist on top of your stove.

I work in “weather”, so I know that until someone can accurately predict next month’s weather in my state, I’ll just laugh at the imbeciles that “think” (that’s a stretch) that they can predict the earth’s temperature in a couple of decades with any degree of accuracy…

Well, you know that in a dynamic system, by definition it is always changing. Thus, the alarmists can *never* be wrong. :D

But according to gorebot theory, it really isn’t a dynamic system.

If they are to claim even a moment’s worth of cooling, they should have to account for the lost heat energy. They factor incoming heat ( sun ) as a constant and the greenhouse effect always increasing and therefore trapping more and more of that solar radiation which can only mean an always increasing amount of heat in the system.

It’s because of this problem that they invented la nina a few years ago. They claim that this invisible thing in the Pacific Ocean is the only thing in the universe that can destroy energy. Everywhere else in the universe such a thing is impossible because the law of conservation is in effect.

No matter what happens, the Goracle will never get any of the blame when the world doesn’t flood. By the time that the world realizes that the climate is not changing *due to man*, the “Warmists” will have already concluded that all of their good work and insistence on vast resources being expended is the cause for the catastrophe being adverted. They will never admit that they were wrong, nor that what they did was detrimental in any fashion to humanity.

Knowing loons like I do, I’m betting that some truther-biologist will take it upon him/herself to develop a type of fast growing and resistant algae that they claim will help provide a carbon-sink for the carbon emissions of humanity, if utilized by enough countries. Over a short period of time, countries all over the world will adopt the process of introducing the algae into their ocean territories, the US will cave into world pressure (because a Democrat will be president, most likely) and do the same. It will be too late before we realize that the algae has no natural enemies and starts infiltrating water ways and clean water supplies. Soon, it will blanket the earth, with dredging operations proving to be futile, marine life will soon perish from lack of light and food sources, and our clean water supply will become perilously low. Water reclamation efforts will be too slow and costly, and eventually the human race will suffer greatly for the acts of one group of idiots that decided they knew best…..

The theme was very popular in the 1950s, mankind’s dalliances in nature having disastrous results.

You mean that all this weather data is ADJUSTED??? A lot of it UP???

Wow, are there no stinkin scientists out there? Or are they just not being heard?

Lysenko politicized his science in the service of Stalin’s Russia. Criticism of Lysenkoism was outlawed, crippling Russia’s economy for over 20 years.

Trofim Denisovich Lysenko (Russian: Трофи́м Дени́сович Лысе́нко) (September 29, 1898–November 20, 1976) was a biologist and agronomist who was director of Soviet biology under Joseph Stalin. Lysenko rejected Mendelian genetics in favor of the hybridization theories of Russian horticulturist Ivan Vladimirovich Michurin, and adopted them into a powerful political scientific movement termed Lysenkoism. His unorthodox experimental research in improved crop yields earned the support of Soviet leadership, especially following the famine and loss of productivity resulting from forced collectivization in several regions of the Soviet Union in the early 1930s. In 1940 he became director of the Institute of Genetics within the USSR’s Academy of Sciences, and Lysenko’s anti-Mendelian doctrines were further secured in Soviet science and education by the exercise of political influence and power. Scientific dissent from Lysenko’s theories of environmentally acquired inheritance was formally outlawed in 1948, and for the next several years opponents were purged from held positions, and many imprisoned. Lysenko’s work was officially discredited in the Soviet Union in 1964, leading to a renewed emphasis there to re-institute Mendelian genetics and orthodox science. — Wikipedia

They have no science backing any of this. This is just a made up story so that researchers can get more government grants. Weather people should just say whether or not it will rain tomorrow, and if the roads are going to be icy, and what the visibility will be. Until they get that right, they have no business talking about what may or may not happen in 100 years and why.

Two years into a Democratic administration, and with international global warming tax programs firmly in place, this same story would have the same “Many scientists say…”

“…that the current anti-global warming programs we have in place appear to be working very well.”

I’m crying here. Because it’s funny, yes. But also so, SO sad…because it’s true.

Ok, can someone ask Presidential Candidate McCain if we still need a 50 cent gas tax to combat global warming?

Time for him to admit the error of his ways on that issue and ANWR.

When the weather man says there is an 80% chance of rain

An 80% chance of rain means there are five weathermen in the room, and four of them think it’s going to rain.

Goracle, Epistle to the Middle Class 45:1023-1024

We better have pumped that oil out of the North Slope by then because we won’t be getting any once the freeze starts.

crosspatch on March 1, 2008 at 10:06 PM

We won’t have to, because Russia will have pumped it all out. They are preparing to drilling off the coast of Alaska while our idiotic and irresponsible leaders pretend not to notice because that’s the pc way.

What the scientists really need to be studying is why there are so many sociopaths in the world today who can find ways to justify anything. My guess would be post modernism and the demonization of traditional conservative values.

But my opinion isn’t worth much because I’m not a career politician who grew up the son of a career politician in luxory hotels who flunked out of two colleges for being really really dumb and recently won the nobel prize for his efforts to destroy the American economy and the American family with it.
