Lies on Top of Lies

And your other comment about satellites just measuring light is even more bizarre.

You sound like my stupid cousin,

Ok, so what if Satellites can only measure light?

I don't know.

And I also don't know how they use light to determine temperature, but they apparently do,

So why don't you just ignore my posts in the future?

You bogus piece of dung.

So you're saying satellites measuring light is crazy, right?

You sound like my stupid cousin,

So anyone who believes it is stupid, right?

Ok, so what if Satellites can only measure light?

You might be stupid?

I don't know.

I think your are

And I also don't know how they use light to determine temperature, but they apparently do,

...and Greenhorn has come full circle.

So why don't you just ignore my posts in the future?

Never! Believe me when I say you're a great asset to this forum.

You bogus piece of dung.

Is that like synthetic dung?

because they routinely publish average global temperature from satellite data. I'm sure if they were just creating misleading data, then some wannabe hero skeptic would have already pointed that out. No one needs a moron like you to keep repeating that it can't be done. So why don't you just ignore my posts in the future?

Now if you cannot understand something this simple, how dare you talk about this subject at all?

You don't know the relationship between "light" and temperature? So much for your claim to be ANY kind of engineer. No wonder you were blaming a "dying world" on "Big Oil".

Wake wrote:

The dopes here keep mentioning the Stefan-Boltzman equations and then show that they do not have a clue what it means.

Stefan–Boltzmann law: a statement that the total radiant heat energy emitted from a surface is proportional to the fourth power of its absolute temperature.

This means that the infrared light emitted tells you the total temperature of the surface. This appears to be totally beyond Nightmare and Greenhorn.

Now if you cannot understand something this simple, how dare you talk about this subject at all?

Your reasoning still amazes me. What does my lack of knowledge about how satellites measure light or temperature have to do with my being an engineer?

Yes, oil companies are the ones who provide the fossil fuel [primarily], but it's our fault for not changing our ways and becoming less reliant on oil.

They are definitely funding that.

It's physics.

I don't think anyone really cares how they determine the temperature of our planet with a satellite. Just trying to clarify that even though they can only see light with satellites, they somehow manage to get temperature readings.

I'm glad someone finally mansplained it though. My only guess was that they hung thermometers on long strings.

And I don't need to understand how they obtain their measurements to use their measurements for analysis, any more than you have to know everything about your car before you drive it to work.

And while we're at it, could you please explain how they get all those people inside my TV?

As for your question about light and temperature? Nightmare has been harping on the Stefan-Boltzman equation in a continuous manner as if it was the magic bullet

and yet he in incapable of transposing terms to generate a constant from the information that is readily available.

Wake wrote:
So if you are an engineer WHY wouldn't you know the connection between heat and light?

Wake wrote:
What effort would it take to learn it? Looking up one stupid equation?

Wake wrote:
If you are incapable of algebra would be the only reason I could imagine.

Wake wrote:
As an engineer such knowledge is absolutely necessary in the performance of your job.
