Not examples of balanced or un-biased sites. These don't help you

any
more than using http://junkscience.com would help me convince you

of
the fallacy of your belief in AGW.



it's pretty obvious you won;t be convinced. I'm pretty much resigned

to
watching idiots like you sell my kids future down the Suwanee...

At least I'll have the pleasure of telling you I told you so in the
fulness of time..

At my age I'd like to be able to stick around long enough to do

that.
OTOH with things accelerating as fast as they are I just might.


Well, exactly.

I don't think I'll make it to 2100 myself, but I'll do my best.


Well, shucks, that'd only make me160 so a young guy like you should be
able to do it. OTOH I'll bet you won't have to wait nearly that long.
Look at the Ross Ice Shelf. Once it decided to go it didn't wait
around and apparently no one saw that coming. The glaciers in
Greenland that used to move in yards per year are now moving
kilometers per year. The permafrost line has moved several hundred
miles north all the way around the northern hemisphere and winters are
now short enough and the weather warm enough that insects like the
Pine Beetle are destroying whole forests that used to be safe. Average
temperatures North of the 45th parallel are up far more than the rest
of the world. Where the particulate pollution has been cleaned up it's
even more pronounced.


Yeah. i thnk we're ****ed, really. Well, at least Jay will be able to
sunbath in January, so it will all be worth it.
