    No, not the Time magazine from article 33 years ago, but a recent article from a scientist.

    So what is the real agenda? Is this guy just wrong? And are Rupert Murdoch and the gang just looking out for us.

    That whole deniers series is a great read. If it doesn't, at least, make you think, then you haven't seriously considered the issue.

    Bah, I have looked at it all... I cannot wait to be sticking marshmallows outside my window to cook them for smores.

    Seriously though, I do believe the global climate change is our fault now. If we could plug up all the whiny politicians for a day the temperature would drop a full degree...

    My husband is a solar scientist, and neither he nor any of his colleagues that I know of are predicting unusually cool conditions in the next 15 years. I don't know where this person is getting his input from, but it sure as heck isn't the membership of the AAS Solar Physics Division.

    Scientists have been going back and forth for years between global cooling and global warming. It's nothing new. These crackpots just can't make up their minds. Either we're headed for an ice age or the weather is about to turn very hot. I dont care either way, someone just needs to figure it out.

    I dont think it really matters at this point as most of the damage has already been done. Its just a matter of when the final days are upon us. :(

    Boohoo....I think thats what will bring the "final days" is "knowing"/"thinking" they are coming. What we think about we bring about, and we create our own reality as a race.

    Collective conciousness?

    :eek:


    I'm still waiting for acid rain.......or for the sky to fall........

    No. I thought it may be a good apocalyptic movie, but I was turned off to seeing it by the fact that so many people seemed to want to make it appear to be a serious film.
