    the use of the word "my" implies ownership...which I had. I owned a hummer...its very similar to me owning you..you arn't here right now, but you are still owned. Understand?:D:D

    I was listening on a program on NPR, and it was explaining how the warm weather this year doesn't mean global warming by itself. Every year some part of the world gets warmer/colder than usual. That doesn't mean global warming.

    However, the scientist that they were interviewing did say that (as many others) even this year's warm weather is not from global warming, global warming will happen very soon (in the next 50 years) if we don't start fixing what we have destroyed so far...

    There's your problem...
    So you are saying that global warming doesn't exist, and that it might exist later in time...how nice of you to be on our side...we appreciate it.

    Funding research specifically to refute global warming is injecting bias into the report. Just like funding research to try to prove that smoking isn't healthy for you is injecting bias into it.

    However, hopefully intelligent people reading this information will be able to understand that inherent bias.

    However, many governments only fund research if it says that global warming exists, is caused by man, and is a problem. That also injects bias into research.

    Global warming DOES exist. It IS caused by men. It IS a problem as well.

    The only thing I don't agree is the depth of the problem and how serious it is. I don't think it is as serious as many claim, but it certainly will be in near future.

    I never said it doesn't exist. I said I don't think it is as broad as some say it is.

    And when I say it will be a serious problem in near future... 50 years IS near future.

    so if it WILL BE a serious problem, that implys it is not a serious problem now, i.e. it doesn't exist...again pick one side or the other...no going back and forth.

    you see, you are just like your worthless president...

    For people like you, a problem has to become extremely serious and life taking before deciding to fix it.

    As much as the economic growth is responsible for our wealth.

    Although, global warming is a slow process. It causes temperature increases by 0.0X degrees a year if we look at a hundred years spectrum and split the number in 100 parts. But if we just look at one year, we can either see a temperature increase or decrease. The same goes if we look at a limited spot on the globe over hundred years.

    Also, as long as the the south pole and the north pole is covered with ice, we are in an ice age.

    And you are making all of these statements based on research that was funded by the government, because it stated those things, correct?

    Don't blame the government. President Bush is trying his best to keep the environmental wackjobs at bay.

    Instead you should blame the scientists. Their livelihoods depends on global warming "research" grant money, and if their hoax is exposed, they lose their jobs.
