Replying to: larsb (Oct 27, 2009 6:19 am) The burden of proof is not to prove that the Earth is cooling; the burden of proof is that the Earth is warming; AND that the warming is man-made.  I don't see where this link of yours has the statisticians quoted on either. I think the article is intentionally ignoring that what was statistically analyzed is not the answer to the question of man-made GHG's and global-warming. |

Replying to: larsb (Oct 28, 2009 7:12 am) Why would they change from GW to CC if the weather data did not make them look stupid? So warmer or cooler it is all Man's fault. I ain't buying into the lies. Looks like the UN is backing down on their big climate summit plans also. |

Replying to: larsb (Oct 28, 2009 7:12 am) No, but if that one point passes the standard for what is acceptable as an environment where an official reading can be taken, it does say the standards are awful, and that there well might be many more like that. If you go in a restaurant and see 1 cockroach, you don't suspect there are more and other problems? |

I guess the next poll is going to show even lower percentages that GW is real and a problem. http://www.usatoday.com/weather/storms/winter/2009-10-29-autumn-snowstorm_N.htm Major snowstorms in the middle of the Fall season are certainly not an indicator that there is any warming, and that if there is warming, it is definitely NEEDED. The day when it is too warm to snow where I live, is the day I'll be happy. I would be thrilled if it never got below 32F in the Northeast (sorry skiiers and snowmobilers). A warmup to a nice 65-95F climate would be great.
