To quote that for ITN and any other dishonest commentary that is: HEAT is the net flow of thermal energy There is a way we can express that. It's e = hv1 - hv2. edited to clarify: for net heat we can say net heat = hv1 - hv2. Basically h is Planck's constant where as v is the frequency. 1 is emitted radiation while 2 is the amount of emitted radiation absorbed by the gas that emitted it. end edit Since everything has both an absorption and emission spectrum, then net heat is the heat no longer associated with the emitting body/gas.

There is no reason to. Most people can accept and understand saying that an ice cube you put into your soup actually does have some thermal energy, though it's much less than what the hot soup has. Saying that the ice cube "heats" the soup less than the soup "heats" the ice cube is mucking up vocabulary for no reason.

Neither of you can define climate change. There are 3 basic types. Arctic, temperate and tropical. An example of this is the boreal forest in Canada and the northern US. It cannot exist in an arctic or tropical environment. Yet no one in this forum knows this. On a regional level, Washington state has a rain forest. In the north of South America and in Hawai'i, it's similar but the flora and fauna is different. People in here don't seem to know the difference. p.s., Hawai'i and not Hawaii has a rain forest. The Amazon is a jungle that receives massive amounts of rainfall or is quite humid. And if you don't know the difference between Hawai'i and Hawaii, really? Basic info, there is no Hawaii. With Hawai'i, sometimes getting the details right matters. Edited on 01-12-2019 00:45

Prove you were born. Can't happen We can't prove your mother and father. As a result, you can't exist. A computer program isn't proof of conception. You have to prove that. Until you do, you aren't a person. Proof of life is required. Edited on 01-12-2019 03:53

James___ ★★★★★ (5513)	tmiddles, proof of concept is required Sadly Christians offer this. There is no proof of faith Faith is the belief in absence of evidence. When proof of faith is offered, then faith never happened. Faith has no proof. Either someone believes or they don't.

Those aren't real. It's absurd to think that anyone would believe he has the right to utter the phrase "by this I mean ..." ... and of course we all know that no one has ever used the term "warmizombies." tmiddles wrote: Weather is still a well defined term. As are climate, temperature, humidity and so on. Too funny! Let me catch my breath. You probably typed this with a completely straight face ... after maintaining a secret, private definition of "climate" that you won't share. Awesome, baby! . I don't think i can [define it].

Can the first person have a "definition" different from the second person and employ the word at all? Do inside jokes belong in the dictionary? No. But the real game ITN/IBD play here is to distract with vocabulary debates when nothing prevents a real discussion of the issues. Debate killers as always.
