Re: Climate Cover-Up: The Crusade to Deny Global Warming

I don't think they will be able to cover it up for much longer.

Although the explanation may not be so nefarious. Actually, it seems like every profound scientific observation, historical event, or theory is subject to detractors or is contested adamantly usually by individuals who do not really want to evaluate data or evidence. I am not referring to those who want to test theories or data. Rather, there seems to be a human need to resist certain concepts or thought processes that is more deeply seated or personal. People argue about the earth's flatness, the holocaust , evolution, vaccination programs, Area 51, etc.. Sometimes these arguments involve proving a negative and I have tried to find out what it would take to convince them-- usually those that advocate an unsubstantiated alternative view are often driven by a pre-existing religious or political prejudice that prevents objective evaluation of information.

Crusade? Interesting choice of words.

I find it interesting that Sci-Fi channel is re-airing "V" from the early 80s, where aliens convince the general public that scientists are enemies and things became violent. And ABC is coming out with a reboot of that program tonight. Gee I wonder where that will go.

And this has something to do with the topic?

I'll be watching. This global climate change has nothing to do with reality. The reality is in the data. Ice age, warming, ice age, warming. It's that simple. The politics will screw it, whomever's loudest will get (or not get) legislation that empowers government. It is really that simple. Rumor has it one of the episodes of V will attack the left on this issue. I will be watching.

It's whoever's - subject
whomever's - object

Really? The data is pretty conclusive (unless one is a neocon).

I don't know any neocons. I know only conservatives and liberals. I don't bother with the indecisive.

Whut?

You don't bother with the science and the data either.

I guess you missed my earlier post. You're not the only person who can read around here.

I missed nothing. You continue to post denials but have yet to provide anything to support your claims.

Support my claims:

Ice age.
Warming.
Ice age.
Warming.

Read your own data. It's even on wikipedia, all the ups and downs. Please now.

And why those ups and downs don't apply to the current situation is also on Wikipedia.
