[quote who="clonmac" reply="1228" id="2535719"] Hope that helps. [/quote] Thanks for responding. One of the things about the graph is that the graph's data suggests that the y axis is change in mass and not the total mass as the graph title indicates (the mass measure dropped into negative values implying that the mass axis was change of mass and not total mass).

She looks very grim, Why not even the hint of a smile? [e digicons]:grin:[/e]

Clonmac You posted a graph of data generated from the grace twins. I recall seeing that graph in December doing some research on issues raised by this thread. I could not make head nor tail of what it purported to suggest. The title of the pic, "Antarctic Ice Mass" does not properly correspond to the data displayed which shows a change from about x gigatonnes to -x gigatonnes. The graph seems to have been labeled incorrectly. This <a href

I wonder if any readers of this thread have changed their mind on the subject. I came upon this thread with the conception that AGW was a real phenomena, with a rigourous scientific treatment and that the main reason for the seeming slowness in response to agw by governments was due to reliance on fossil fueled economies. Now I am not so sure. Not because of the stolen - or possibly leaked - emails. Rather the attitude of some (or all) of the members of RC and o

[quote]You can't read can you[/quote] Obvusly........lol In the article titled AGW, Revisited Randi never stated: agw is likely true. He wrote a followup and made the statement: agw is likely true. There is nothing ambigious about that. It is strongly suggested that in AGW, Revisited his opinion is that agw is possible but not worth being concerned about. Going from this position to 'agw is likely true' is not clarification. From possi

[quote who="SivCorp" reply="626" id="2490924"]It is quite humorous, isn't it anteachtaire? Has anyone even answered my question of how can we not predict the weather for 2 weeks into the future, and yet we are so sure that the world will end it it goes up or down a degree? Science is not religion... nor is it able to predict the future. It can only take and prove or disprove a theory, at that point in time. Humans nee

[quote who="psychoak" reply="624" id="2490668"] He's a self proclaimed skeptic and still is, he agrees that the Earth has warmed to the degree the proponents of AGW claim, he disagrees that there is any proof it's by anthropogenic causes. That would mean he's still a skeptic. That particular article exists because some ass tard somewhere on the internets took him out of context as being in denial that the Earth has warmed, something similar to my position.<b

[quote who="psychoak" reply="618" id="2490246"] Did you actually read that, or are you lost on the whole AGW versus GW bit? Either way, foot in mouth, separate them. [/quote] hmmm???! Read what? Not sure what you mean. You may have chewed a few of your own.

The sceptic Randi has recently done an about face on AGW. So if he can do it other sceptics can and likely will!!! The darkest moment in agw debate and its international movement and Randi comes and saves it. Now is the reverse true? Has any notable proponent of AGW ever changed their position? I went to the Wikipedia entry on Chricton linked above and while readi

Have you looked at the map Ancient Gifts which has an artifact available at game start.

You could also look at the Sova embargo ability. Or the Vasari colonizer cap's 3rd ability.

What is this temperature anomaly? I have seen this in several graphs with no clear definition of the term. Wikipedia offers that it is the deviation from the average global temperature of 1961-1990 without citation. Actually I have seen it in lots more than several graphs, so many to the point that it seems that it is information that a reader of the graph is assumed to have. Th

[quote who="Mumblefratz" reply="466" id="2482202"] So if the APS does in fact revisit and later reaffirm their current position will you in fact admit that I am right and you are wrong? Don't worry; I wouldn't hold my breath on that ever occurring. [/quote] They have and did reaffirm Then later in the same issue (page 3): Other Council members are concerned about too much ge

What I find funny is that the effect of the theft of CRU files is swinging the view to the op position. That is that deniers no longer have to discredit anyone, that in fact the AGW proponents have discredited themselves. To test this notion I mentioned global warming in passing to someone today. Quickly the response was that it was a hoax, that a leak proved it. So I wonder if by the time of the next international climate meeting in Mexico if this feeling</stron

On second thought, if you actually believe that politics reflects sober reasoned thought rather then pandering to the lowest common denominator, don't tell me.

Apparently GW has been proved as real dollars are being committed: Hillaries speech at copenhagen (skip to the 4 minute mark when she starts to talk about actual stuff.) The information density of the speech is low but she does suggest the US might be spending a lot of money as well as seeking to lower co2 emissions. No one does this unless they accept that gw is proven sufficiently to warrant spending at

No doubt all know this: Hillary Clinton has plegded 100 billion US dollars per year to assist poor countries because of climate change. Contigent on China cooperating with external agencies to determine China's ghg emissions. And likely a host of other caveats. Is there anyone in the whole world that believes there is any chance of this pledge being met?

Jack Campell's The Lost Fleet is almost only about huge space battles. There is character development to carry the story but this can be quickly skimmed until the next epic battle once you have read a couple of the novels. Amazing descriptions of space battles that raised the bar on how fiction depicts this subject.

The argo project looks interesting. What I found odd is that somewhere in their site it is stated that the ocean seems to have had a steady temperature for the past couple of years. Immediately it is added that this does not mean that AGW is not happening!!! Ugh. Since if the results were that the temperature were rising AGW denialists and sceptics can of course simply make the same statement. As well <a hre
