Curiosity,
Let’s face it you are a “believer” to the Church of Global Warming and Liberalism. No matter what proof of explanation is given you, you will quote the gospel of Al “I invented the internet” Gore. And come up with absurd truths. See "Environmentalism as Religion” by Michael Crichton, or Environmentalism: A New Religion? By: David G. Danielson
You did not respond to the fact that Socialist and Communist are the manmade global warming pushers, who want to control all of us and dictate our life style. Are you for Government Control of your total life?
You missed my point but pointed out what the Pushers do. The tree rings and ice cores can only give a magnitude over a range. You can say that 1,000 years ago the temperature was warmer over a period of time than today. It cannot be determined the exact years or exact temperatures. You can say that carbon was 300 time higher in concentration 5,000 years ago but not the years or days it was higher. Only the magnitude and the approximate time frame. However, today the Pushers will see a miniscule change that can only be detected by precise instruments and then extrapolate it for extended periods of time. It is only the Pushers that will use such phrases as the hottest “year” in over 1,000 years. The phrases is meaningless because when you change measuring systems you can multiply errors. Tell me the average temperature of the year 100 AD?
Further with carbon they make two major errors, 1. That the increase will go on indefinitely; and, 2. Ignore the fact that a some point there will be a saturation of carbon to the point that more carbon will have no additional affect on warming.
So Curiosity, I told you what the motivation for the manmade global warming pushers is. World Socialism. What is the motivation of the manmade global warming skeptics? Don’t use money, because the Pushers receive over a $billion and companies like Exxon have given only a few million.
And do you agree with the Stalinist tactic of attacking the skeptics? Or if you’re a believer I guess they would be considered heretics.
Your example of the sundial and atomic clock. Suppose your accused of a crime and your alibi needs to be within 10 minutes of the time the crime took place. However all your witness can say is that using a sun dial says that the last time you were seen may have as late as 9:20 or early 8:40. How would a more accurate time piece looked at 12 hours later help you out?
