    So what do you guys think? Personally, I think that after reading State of Fear, I'm dubious to the real threats of global warming and the book brings many valid points to the table

    the way i see it, we are fucked.... (ok stepp now you can prove me wrong)

    Hah way too lazy to bring out the book and read on it. Anyways, the book talks about how parts of Antarctica are actually getting colder. The water levels are not truly rising (maybe I'm making this part up, I'm not sure). The majority of 'species that will be rendered extinct' is composed mainly and mostly of insects. Insects of which we count in an incredibly inaccurate way apparently. Also, it brings up that our projected count of species in the world ranges from 3 million to 100million, so if a species went extinct, especially an insect, it would be hard to find out. He talks about mistakes in the past that have been made yet also advocated by the public/experts (e.g. Nuclear winter, Y2K, Eugenics. Eugenics is the belief of eliminating the weak parts in a gene pool, or what Hitler was trying to do. I believe Crichton said that Churchill agreed to this). Uhm... Hurricanes are not made more frequent, and Los Ninos actually brought a net profit as opposed to a deficit. There will be more as soon as I remember :)

    yeah... the seasons could just be a bit out of sequence, we may just have a cold summer.. i dunno, anything is possible

    ...third choice in the poll? The fact that all of this "Global Warming" could be a natural cycle that Earth goes through every million years or so. What caused previous Ice Ages and how do you explain that North America and Europe have both spent time covered with Ice and as a tropical zone?
  6. blaikeSalvaged from archive23 Dec 2006, 20:08
    Yes, I actually had that as a 3rd choice, but I forgot to click on the "Add to choices" button. I just clicked on Submit

    Unless something happens, this is going to be the first christmas... ever... since I've been living where I do (about 14 or so years) without snow

  9. blaikeSalvaged from archive23 Dec 2006, 20:30
    meh, not so much. I live in San Jose-ish, so I never get snow where I live. I just get really really cold wind =/ Last time I saw snow was forever ago. I think I was 10 the last time I went to Tahoe for skiing

    eh.. ashes to ashes, dust to dust...

    I saw a report yesterday that retailers are having a bad winter - less people are buying cold weather clothing because it's warmer! Here it is - I found it: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/12/23/business/23warm.html?ei… Also I saw a video about polar bears drowning because the ice is melting up North, and that made me cry. People here who have multi-million dollar waterfront properties are evidently going to be swamped as sea levels rise.

    About 7 or 8 Christmases ago, I was riding the bike at Christmas, there was about 30 or 40 of us by the end of the day. I was a happy camper! But I'm a bout 5 or 6 hours west, and about 2 south of Vanguard. I figure that anything that is going to give all of Canada's snow to the southern states, and give us Florida's weather is a good thing.....
  15. blaikeSalvaged from archive23 Dec 2006, 20:49
    Mmm idk if they're drowning because of rising sea levels. People who do press global warming can admit that the sea levels rising are not dramatic. They are a few inches or centimeters every so often (sorry about being vague, I hate being specific when I'm not sure what I'm talking about. Its like an inch a year/decade or something).
  16. DandruffBGoneSalvaged from archive23 Dec 2006, 20:54
    I don't know what I'm talking about either Blaike, but at least we have the balls to admit it! I read the bears now have to swim SIXTY MILES to get to their feeding grounds, and they are drowning in the process. Of course I'm aware you can't believe everything you read......except on Filecabinet of course! LOL
  17. blaikeSalvaged from archive23 Dec 2006, 20:57
    hehe reminds me of the beginning of Michael Crichtons newest book Next. "This novel is fiction. Except for the parts that aren't." Plus, polar bears just eat people ¬¬

    No Blaike. They have a high cuteness factor also (Like Allisterfiend). I do not agree with keeping them in zoos, but here you go: http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p152/pigsontoast/ice_b… Wow. I love it when this happens.......all colours looking good together in my posts! It's aesthetically pleasing to me! :D
