LOL - even the name "Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change" assumes that the climate is changing and somthing needs to be done about it.
 
Even a 4th grader should see through that ploy. Why even bother reading a report from such a "panel", I already know what their conclusions will be. Remember, I am old and I have seen this before. They can make it look official, but in the end, the results are predictable.
 
If there were such a thing as "Intergovernmental Panel on Barking Dogs".... would that mean somthing needs to be done about canines making noise?

Earth tilting slightly....hmmmm. You may have hit on the next big Crusade:
 
"Americans are so overweight they are causing earth to tilt".
 
In the meantime Al Gore has cornered the market on helium and mandates that we must breathe pure helium for 2 hours each day to offset excess weight...makes about as much sense as "fixing" global warming.

Many of the scientists that contributed data for the report have refuted the way the politicians compiled it. Some may be facts and some is fiction. All is done by an entity I have very little faith in. The UN is the body that ripped to World off for billions with the Iraq food for oil program. And you expect me to believe anything they say?
 
Most scientists now say the last 10 years is a cooling trend. That being the case how could man have anything significant to do with i?. We have not produced less CO2 over the last 10 years.
 
I am for burning less fossil fuel. Just getting past those eco wackos in the USA, that have blocked most of the vehicles built in the World that use less fuel.
 
As I am sure you are aware the Global Warming Cult have changed to Climate Change so they can push their snake oil in all kinds of weather. I'm shooting the first carbon credit sales person that comes to my door.

No, no, not KALX---I was thinking of KPFA. I wish I could stream it here so people could hear what REAL liberal media sounds like (aside from very dim due to the weak batteries).
 
Ah, so all the world's scientists are now on the suspect list? Hmmm, don't like the sound of that!
 
Politicians didn't frame this 21 page report. It's as it was written by the scientists.
 
Read it, it's interesting. Takes 15-20 minutes at best.
 
ANYWAY -- we gotta veer back to the topic of automakers & global warming or we'll get yelled at!
 
Don't you see the Big Three's lag in hybrid development and their consequent misplacement of product mix in general as a sign that they are out of step with developing technologies?

GEEZ now there is a WEAK station that just won't die. I think two guys hijacked the station 35 years ago, but no one remembered where they were located so they could give in to their irrational demands. Must be global warming!

I love KPFA, they are so off the wall sometime. Life needs one of everything to stay interesting. I bet they don't like cars, either.

Well, you had me going with KALX (just missed Hendrix singing Blue Suede Shoes).
 
But KPFA streams on the net too. Sounds like it's bluegrass night there.
 
[edit - Ruking, usually you can find the stream just by going to the web site; otherwise try Shoutcast.com or similar for 1,000s of stations worldwide.]

Thanks for the link. I can only get that OTHER school's ( Stanford's) 90.00 FM in these parts. I was pulling your chain on KPFA. Its pretty clear down here 94.10 FM.
