Fred,
Thanks for your thoughtfull reply. However, my question was largely Socratic in nature. I was responding to Idunno’s list (not mine) of “possible” observations in an attempt to illustrate Popper’s point that a propositional statement that attempts to explain everything , in fact, explains nothing. Thus, when one is told that global warming will both increase and decrease snow fall and both increase and decrease precipitationn, etc. it’s a good indicator that the propositionall statement has been framed incorrectly. If you put forth a propositoin you must also define under what conditions it can be shown to be false.
