So, if past is prologue, this current plateau will end at some point, too, and a new era of rapid global warming will begin. That will put extra energy and moisture into the atmosphere that can fuel weather extremes, like heat waves and torrential rains.

If that's the best can do to alarm the proles, they might as well hang it up and try a new shtick. How about: by mining the earth and building more structures on the earth's surface, especially tall buildings, we are increasing the earth's moment of inertia, slowing its rotation, with a myriad of bad consequences eventually including cats and dog lying together

If atmospheric CO2 was the actual cause of global warming, you'd think the geniuses at the IPCC would be screaming to stop one of its most significant sources: coal seam fires. I've listened for such calls: crickets. Their main worry is American manufacturing and automobile CO2 sources.

Huge coal fires have raged around the world for generations. Sources say their annual CO2 release equals or exceeds all U.S. sources. Yet there's silence from Gore and his flying monkeys. That automatically makes them hypocrites.

Anyone who spends even a modest amount of time reading about the history of Earth's climate written by real scientists, not IPCC junk scientists, will quickly learn climate change is continuous and has occurred over the entire history of the world. They'll also learn there have been many warmer periods than the present during previous interglacials, and that CO2 increases follow warm periods and don't precede them. There's an enormous amount of real research available to disprove the junk science, but the IPCC prefers GIGO computer models.

There will be a day when the name “Al Gore” will elicit howls of laughter - even more than it does today.

I was pretty consistent with my attendance at the 20 or so science and math classes I took in college, but somehow I managed to miss that lecture on “luck” as part of the scientific method.

And why do you suppose this is?

Could it be that the facts deny the political agenda?

Liberalism destroys everything it touches.

Lucked out? It’s freezing here in Ontario. Cold, raw, wet. I would welcome a little bad luck any day now in the form of a sunny warm day.

Too funny. Science is making a hypothesis, designing an experiment, predicting an outcome based on that hypothesis and analyzing and comparing the results. They made their hypothesis, we’ve now had 15 years of temperature data since the hype and there has been no correlation between CO2 emmissions and global temperatures (www.drroyspencer.com). Maybe there is some link, don’t know for sure. But what we do know is that their theory of how CO2 and global temperature interact and their models of that interaction have been completely disproven.

“As unlikely as this may sound, we have lucked out in recent years when it comes to global warming.”

Well, not really. It is just the normal “sine wave” that describes temperature change over a period of decades. If given a chance, it is people like this who would be frantically freaking out when they see the sun going down every day at sunset.
