My work has been more along the Bonder-Farrel DiffEQ lines.
But hey, a job offer that doesn’t include “must be willing to bear arms and wear a uniform at the government’s discretion” is one I am willing to listen to!
BTW, I used to drive Seth Bonder home, and plow his driveway (I was the only scientist at the office with a snowplow).
And Bob Farrell was the scariest dude I ever met - I felt like an idiot whenever I talked to him, and after EVERY conversation, I ran down the hall and hit the books, to see what the heck he just said to me.
LOL.
Excellent point!
IMHO, the UN is a bigger threat than global warming.
Did I mention that the Swedish Bikini team wants to come? Also, a well stocked wine cellar would be nice. I am starting to like this govenment work a lot. :)
“Did I mention that the Swedish Bikini team wants to come? “
It will be cold in the Arctic! Maybe a fur bikini, chinchilla?
Global warming on Free Republic
Preach it, brother!!!! It sure AIN’T settled!
About two feet in diameter and fifteen feet long? That would do it. And one proper probe would make any further checks unnecessary!
Permission to come aboard Sir?
(Mind if I bring my fishing tackle?)
This is not a thread, it’s a MOVEMENT!
Yes, welcome aboard!
All are welcome, what skills do you bring us in our effort to Save The Polar Bears 2008?
Do you have ice fishing tackle? When the Boomershoot clears ice for the bears, if no bears show up right away, a tilt or two would be a good way to build camaraderie among the crew and to provide organic, natural food.
Global warming is a hoax, ping.
The Global Cooling Bet -- Part 2
From the latter:
"Their forecast was not only too cold for 1994-2004, but it also looks almost certain to be too cold for 2000-2010. For their forecast for 2000-2010 to be correct, all the remaining months of this period would have to be as cold as January 2008 - which was by far the coldest month in that decade thus far. It would thus require an extreme cooling for the next two-and-a-half years."
and
"Why did we propose a bet on this forecast? Mainly because we were concerned by the global media coverage which made it appear as if a coming pause in global warming was almost a given fact, rather than an experimental forecast. This could backfire against the whole climate science community if the forecast turns out to be wrong. Even today, the fact that a few scientists predicted a global cooling in the 1970s is still used to undermine the credibility of climate science, even though at the time it was just a small minority of scientists making such claims and they never convinced many of their peers. If different groups of scientists have a public bet running on this, this will signal to the public that this forecast is not a widely supported consensus of the climate science community, in contrast to the IPCC reports (about which we are in complete agreement with Keenlyside and his colleagues). Some media reports even suggested that the IPCC scenarios were now superseded by this "improved" forecast."
I have a 38 oz vintage Louisville Slugger that would be perfect for clubbing baby seals which we could then deliver (minus that annoying fur) to the Polar Bear food bank.
That’s a wonderful idea. I had not considered feeding the poor starving bears, nor what to feed them if we did.
Seals! Of course!
And that solves the problem of the fur bikinis for the Sweedish Bikini team members (and all 200 coaches for the team).
And it's all 'natural and biodegradable' too.
I hope the same is true with the Swedish Bikini Team. We better check them out just to make sure.
We were going to put the 12-foot pool out this weekend for the kids. I'm wearing a sweater, sipping hot tea and wearing slippers ... forecast is a high of 59 this Friday. Kids are stupid ... maybe they won't notice ... awwww kids ... the pool is for you ... Mommy and Daddy don't want to come in and spoil your fun.
