Hey, Xmosis...
You look a little less animated than you used to, are you alright? Haha only kidding, cool new pic. If it's not all that new, then it's because I have not been on here much lately.

Re: we've only been collecting data for five hundred years...
This is a prime example of why anyone interested in this should go out and actually examine the topic in detail. You don't even have to go out, you can do it online! If you look into it, you'll find that that particular question--about the collection of data--is not a good reason to doubt the conclusions of the climate scientists. If you want to know why, you'll have to go look. A lot of people seem to have a pet theory that they trot out to show how climate change shouldn't be taken seriously. I just ask that if you care, you go out and read about it. I guarantee you'll find that your objection, if relevant, has been taken into account. They're not making this up. There is real science that shows the influence of humanity on the earth's climate. -Travis P.S. The people who claim that this a politically motivated issue should really look in the mirror. And while you're at it, do some investigating into who funds the various groups that are trying to discredit the science. You'll find plenty of political motivation on that side. |

Good grief...you are this...I am that...this is true..this is not...you should do this...you ought to do that...go do this...go do that...think like me...think like me...or you should go and find my truth...I am right because I am and I know because I do things you don't...
Give it a rest. If there is any 'prime example' being displayed is that this thread is as pointless as the fear that motivates it. Flail away.

All of this over a theory.
I looked it up in my dictionary. I liked one of the entries for the word. "An assumption based on limited information or knowledge; a conjecture." No real reason for anyone to get so worked up and upset if people do not decide to agree or believe in any "theories." |

If someone comes up to me and starts telling me that the Ptolemaic model of the solar system is the correct one, I'll tell them that they're wrong, and suggest that they go and look it up. If they were nice about it, I might talk very briefly about how we know that that model is incorrect. If they insist that they're correct, don't show any evidence that they are interested in learning anything, start listing sources of bogus information, engage in irrelevant talk about "fear," accuse me of wanting others to "think like me" (huh?), and offer non sequiturs, then I've no doubt my comments will come out a little abrupt--I find it exasperating.
This isn't about me or my personality, this is about the science of climate change, and if you want to find out more--some of you clearly don't--you can find out all you need to know with Google and little bit of intelligence. If that comes off as arrogant, fine. I don't have the motivation to engage in a point-by-point debate with anybody, so I'll just continue to say: the science is solid--human activity is having an effect on the earth's climate. If you doubt it, go do some research. -Travis |
