Well, Germany more than doubled their power cost as well as increased their carbon footprint. It sounds like they adapted by running a lot more copper..

As I have had to endure that kind of self pitying mentality for the last 50 years , it never crossed my mind.

Comment on Ethics of communicating scientific uncertainty by Rob Ellison
In relation to Professor Christian Fronsdal, are you seriously appealing to authority, and calling for consensus?
Credibility has nothing to do with fact. Apparently 97% of some odd grouping of supposed scientists believe the world is warming due to CO2 in the atmosphere. Maybe they also believe, as did the eminent physicist Lord Kelvin, that the Earth cannot possibly be older than 20,000,000 years.
So who are we to believe? Kelvin, Fronsdal, or the supremely unschooled and unqualified Mike Flynn? You choose who to believe. I choose me in relation to the existence of the gravito-thermal effect – surprise, surprise!
A reference to someone who actually has credibility is not an appeal to authority. An appeal to Flynn is pissing in the wind.

“the actual scientifically vetted published material on this critical global topic that has been under such scrutiny.” That’s why the Hockey Team had to redefine peer review.
Are you using carefully vetted adjusted data? Or inconvenient original data?

“I give you 5 more years of current trends and even you will start to see the light.”
_____
Reminds me of the hopes of the Chicago cubs fans! Just wait until next year! Meanwhile, each decadal average (the minimum period in which you can even possibly see long-term CO2 forcing) is warmer than the next, and the end of those decade periods tend to be warmer than the beginning. The past 12 months possibly the warmest 12 month period in 900 years.
But hope springs eternal for the much dreamed of “cooling” by faux-skeptics.

“Please. As if that is a problem only with Fox New viewers. It is a problem with all sides as well as laypeople and scientists alike.”
_____
Oh I agree. Ignorance runs rampant. I do not even discuss climate issues with someone who gets their science from the MSM – be it right or left leaning. What’s the point. Even more entertaining is watching a Faux News view argue with an MSNBC viewer when that’s their only source for “science”. Quite comical (and a bit painful, really) to watch ignorance argue against ignorance. But of course, that sort of thing never happens here at CE, eh?

FOMBS…ever your oily self serving up a dish of unpalatable parables and nostrums, but I take cheer that all we need to do to combat the eco-terrorism of CAGW is ignore all of you and your delusions, your scientism, and you’ll all commit seppuku. I grant you self-righteousness as the one simple act eliminates an eco-terrorist and lowers the population.
Good on yah, all who follow your principles to their logical conclusion.

“Of course the reason you despise Fox News is because it has intellectual diversity and intellectual honesty”
_____
I do not despise Faux News at all. I watch it regularly. I find it very entertaining. It simply is not my source for actual news. I also find it useful for getting a better perspective of where my right-leaning friend are coming from and what might be on their “minds” (really, on Rupert’s mind). Faux News represents the single best source to get an inside look at the right-wing group memes, and some great laughs as well!

Comment on Ethics of communicating scientific uncertainty by Pierre-Normand
Captdallas: The result does not much depend on the size of the cylinder. Let us say, for the sake of the argument, that it is one meter high and 20cm in diameter. The pressure regulator is screwed near the top on the right side, unless you are looking at it from behind (in which case you won’t see the pressure gauge, but that’s not a problem since the main valve is closed shut). Is the average molecular kinetic energy of the gases the same? Is the collision rate on the walls the same? Is the total of internal energy the same?
Think of those questions as college physics textbook exercises that aim to test your knowledge about PV=nRT, and such. There is no gotcha.

“None of them have actually read any of the research directly or actually understand the science.” Are you implying you read the research and/or understand the science?

Intentions and perspective. When my son started smoking I spoke to him about it not in an attempt to make him “do what I want”, but out of concern. Many many scientists (and other “greenies”) speak out of concern, not out of an attempt to control. Even more to the point– a changing climate affects us all, whereas smoking will mainly just kill the smoker, though of course there is second hand smoke and via health care costs we all pay a price for that addiction as well.

“Are you implying you read the research and/or understand the science?”
______
Let’s just say that I’ve spent more time reading research papers than listening to Faux News faux-science reporters tell us how growing sea ice in Antarctica disproves AGW. This is the kind of mush that my right-leaning friends spew out, and is my first clue to keep my mouth shut around them rather than getting into the real science. I just smile at them and let them continue their Murdock-programmed ranting.
