Replying to: larsb (Dec 10, 2008 2:28 pm) To 'normalize' your data... one needs to SUBTRACT the amount that MARS has also warmed up due to the sun putting out more heat. After normalizing your data... the Earth is not really getting much warmer than any of our neighboring planets. Lets not get into humans causing the Sun to get hotter...

Replying to: bpeebles (Dec 10, 2008 5:46 pm) The head GOICG (government official in charge of grants) told them that he was afraid that they would burn up if they attempted to land on the sun. They told him this would not be a problem because they would go at night.

Replying to: ruking1 (Dec 10, 2008 7:24 pm) I don't know anything about the other appointees warming up in the bullpen, but "The appointments suggest that Obama plans to make a strong push for measures to combat global warming and programs to support energy innovation. "I think it's a great team," said Daniel A. Lashof, director of the Climate Center at the Natural Resources Defense Council. "On policy, it's a dramatic contrast based on what I know about the policy direction that all these folks will be bringing to these positions." Browner, Two Others to Get Climate Posts The fact that they are being called "climate posts" should thrill those on the (insert whatever the acceptable "denier" term is) side.
