    I was going to show these responses to my friends, but the overall immaturity and denial is just too embarrassing.

    I must be in the wrong industry.

    Ya’ll have a nice weekend.

    Don’t forget to remind them about the ozone hole (that all the libs went nuts over), and Ice Age, might be a good idea getting those movements up and running again. You might also want to remind them that is no longer “global warming” it is now called climate change! By the way, emotion are more important than the truth!

    Love the smokies, but we’re talking about springfed streams here; if the average temp in those streams rises 3.7 degrees, it’s a sign the average high is about 150; we’re all dead anyway, or at least well done.

    If you are sick sick of this topic, tell IJ to present both sides. Why is it that only the alarmist side gets promoted here? Why will no one elver answer my question, “What ended the last Ice Age?”

    Since IJ won’t report actual news on the topic, I will: In April, sixty of the world’s leading experts in the field of climatology asked Canadian Prime Minister Harper to order a thorough public review of the science of climate change, something that has never happened in Canada. Considering what’s at stake – either the end of civilization, if you believe Gore, or a waste of billions of dollars, if you believe his opponents – it seems like a reasonable request.

    In other words, Canada is taking a second look at the evidence for anthropogenic global warming. Is it too much to ask IJ to do the same?

    But reason is not the stong suit among the global warming whakos who want to restrict human freedom and increase the size and cost of government in the name of their religious faith that the earth is burning up and man is the cause.

    Note to IJ: look, up inthe sky, it’s a huge ball of fire! Maybe it has something to do with earth’s temperatures!

    One previous answer to the question of what ended the last ice age was the release of CO2 & Methane from outgassing cows….Don’t you remember?

    IJ says: **The report, “Unnatural Disaster: Global Warming and Our National Parks,” by the National Parks Conservation Association suggests the effects of global warming on the southern Appalachians may be more subtle than glaciers melting in Alaska, but just as significant.**

    And in Algore’s stupid propaganda film he lies to us saying, “Starting in 1970, there was a precipitous drop-off in the amount and extent and thickness of the Arctic ice cap.” This is misleading, according to former University of Winnipeg climatology professor Dr. Tim Ball. “The survey that Gore cites was a single transect across one part of the Arctic basin in the month of October during the 1960s when we were in the middle of the cooling period. The 1990 runs were done in the warmer month of September, using a wholly different technology.”

    Dr. Wibjörn Karlén, emeritus professor, Dept. of Physical Geography and Quaternary Geology, Stockholm University, Sweden, explains that a paper published in 2003 by University of Alaska professor Igor Polyakov shows that, the region of the Arctic where rising temperature is supposedly endangering polar bears showed fluctuations since 1940 but no overall temperature rise. “For several published records it is a decrease for the last 50 years.”

    Cow farts?! And your source for this is, what, Dave Chappelle?

    Seriously, please send the peer-reviewed scientific journal in which it was proved that cow farts ended the last Ice Age. Or did Algore tell you that, which would be more believable than any scientific journal.
