Howdy.
Let's see you post a pic!
Here's my private 24/7 email to Rush at 11:55 AM 3/1/07 at his web site:
You may want to check out environmental engineer, Mark Bahner (who sides with Michael Crichton):
# 69 http://www.realclimate.org/index.php?p=74 QUOTE: ".. I disagree with Gavin Schmidt: Dr. Schmidt seems to think that the temperature projections in the IPCC Third Assessment Report, or TAR (i.e., a temperature rise of 1.4 to 5.8 degrees Celsius from 1990 to 2100) are better than Michael Crichton's projection of 0.8 degrees Celsius from 2000 to 2100. But the IPCC TAR projections are clearly worse, if one places the same range of temperatures around Michael Crichton's estimates that exist in the IPCC TAR. That is, the IPCC TAR has a mean value of 3.6 degrees Celsius increase, +/- 2.2 degrees Celsius.
If Michael Crichton's value of 0.8 degrees Celsius is taken with a range of +/- 2.2 degrees Celsius, it becomes a prediction of anything from a cooling of 1.4 degrees Celsius, to a warming of up to 3.0 degrees Celsius (with a mean value of warming of 0.8 degrees Celsius). Even assuming a warming of as much as 2.0 degrees Celsius from 2000 to 2100, Michael Crichton would still have a better prediction than the IPCC TAR (i.e. 0.8 degrees is closer to 2.0 degrees than 3.6 degrees is to 2.0 degrees). As I noted, I will post again (when I have more time) on why Michael Crichton's prediction is *better* than the predictions in the IPCC TAR. Comment by Mark Bahner 25 Dec 2004 @ 1:58 pm
# 31. Gavin Schmidt writes, "He (Crichton) also gives us his estimate, ~0.8 C for the global warming that will occur over the next century and claims that, since models differ by 400% in their estimates, his guess is as good as theirs. This is not true."
I agree. That's not true. Michael Crichton's guess of ~0.8 degrees Celsius for the 21st century is far, far better than the IPCC projections of 1.5 to 5.8 degrees Celsius (from 1990 to 2100). I discuss this fact on my website (my own prediction is for ~0.7 degrees Celsius warming in the lower troposphere):
A review of IPCC projections versus historical and likely future trends http://markbahner.50g.com/what_will_happen_to_us.htm
The IPCC projections are completely unrealistic, in part because: 1) They include completely unrealistic projections for future atmospheric methane concentrations, and
2) They include unrealistic projections for future CO2 emissions, and for future CO2 atmospheric concentrations. Mark Bahner (environmental engineer)

Great speech given by Newt today.
A great conservative, no spin speech.
Worth listening when you have time.

You may want to start at about 1/4 of the way in to by pass an ad.
Mmmmmmm, thanks. Where are they from? I think I eat there every summer.......
A link to this story Rush is reading. Alien technology to combat global warming?? WTF???? LOL!!
Thanks, couldn't come up with Louis Prima.
Here's the GW story he's talking about:

Hi Everyone....
Thanks for the link CC
;0)
I will be posting things that Hillary has said....if you have any, please post also....we need to make sure she doesn't get the lib nod....
Not sure.
Morning.
Tell work your busy.
Well, since I haven't updated my address on the super-secret Freeper database since I moved across the street, the guys in the black SUVs didn't get me. But, the illegals who moved into our old house got a big suprise!
Hey yourself. Gotta scoot to the Pentagon...back in a little bit.
See ya soon.
See ya soon.
Godspeed tx.
