That's exactly what I was going to say about your hijacking of the word "climate." But you are in a different league entirely. You hijack science and attempt to rewrite it. Few have that kind of gumption!

Nope. It has been proven mathematically that we can never know the whole truth or "reality."

When I was a teenager, one thing our pastor mentioned. 100 people could read the same passage in the Bible and come away with something different from having read it. Yet people say the easiest way to start an argument is to discuss politics or religion.
I'll let you know what I think. I have been pursuing an experiment to see if water vapor and CO2 can go something like H2O + CO2 > CH2O and O2. There's a scientist in Germany I'd like to talk into it. I let him know what the oxidizer could be so I have a hypothesis. After all, a chemical reaction requires an oxidizer.
That could encourage new research into carbon capture. And at the same time, the O2 it generates could be transported up to the tropopause/lower stratosphere where it could increase the amount of oxygen in the Chapman cycle.
And with solar power, it might help it to be an eco friendly process. What makes me think it's possible is something a shipmate of mine pointed out to me when I was in the Navy.
And tmiddles, something that itn/ibdm ignore is that when the combustion process (burning something) and it generates CO2, the combustion process also releases heat. They always omit that part. And what scientists might not know is the rate of entropy for our atmosphere. What if the heat we're releasing into it is staying longer than we think?
If you want an idea about this. Search for the temperatures of the mesopause and the tropopause both during the day and at night.

"Facts" are elusive things composed of simple truths which are composed of earth, water, and fire, which are composed atoms, which are composed of quarks, electrons, and neutrinos. which are composed of little strings.
The point is, things change.
And don't forget the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle.

Yeah, I always forget that part, especially when I build a campfire or barbeque food. I always end up doing a face-palm when I realize that there's heat coming from the combustion.

What was I thinking, right?

The atmosphere is not a closed system. It cannot have a "rate of entropy."

James___ wrote: What if the heat we're releasing into it is staying longer than we think?

There is only one verb that applies to heat, and that is "to flow." Heat cannot be "released" and it cannot be "trapped" into "staying longer."

Kind of why in the morning I put my hot coffee in a thermos. The vacuum around it helps to decrease radiation being emitted by my coffee. Less O2, more CO2 increases IMHO the effect of vacuum or in the case of our atmosphere, areas of extreme cold. It decreases convection as a form of heat loss in our upper atmosphere.
I could say that a denser atmosphere conserves more energy but......


p.s., campfires on your living room floor are usually a bad idea. I can see why you give yourself a face palm. I guess when you see smoke you realize there is heat, right? Heat loss as a form of convection.

Exactly! You seek to reduce the heat flow.

James___ wrote: Less O2, more CO2 increases IMHO the effect of vacuum

James__, help me out here. I'm having semantic difficulty with any non-vacuum increasing the effect of vacuum.

Are you referring to CO2's ability to "slow" the escape of earth's thermal radiation into space?

James___ wrote: It decreases convection as a form of heat loss in our upper atmosphere.

James__, I have a quick question about this claim of yours.

If you were to fill two identical tanks with a gas, tank A with O2 and tank B with CO2, and you were to apply an equivalent heat source to the base of each tank, wouldn't they internally convect equally?

Ergo, doesn't convection remain constant within the same one atmosphere, irrespective of composition?

James___ wrote: p.s., campfires on your living room floor are usually a bad idea.

Tell me about it. My fourth time was a total disaster.

The big surprise was just how problematic barbequeing in the bathroom can be. I'm not going to do that again until I get a much bigger bathroom.

Actually i shy away from using the word "fact", kind of like i shy away from voting.
I did say that it's not perfect to not use it - there are instances where it is useful.
However, it is misused so much (trying to gain authority to their interpretation) that i try to stay away from it.
You yourself just described some of the problems with the word.
I just think it is so imprecise that it shouldn't be used, sort of like the 737 Max shouldn't be used right at the moment.

Both crashes were caused by pilot error and poor training. The trim system is not considered a primary flight control.

ITN,
I haven't read the accident report but from what i've heard the pilots started the emergency following their training. Some one said they should have recognized that the training wasn't working.
If that is the complaint about the pilots, i don't buy it.
Their training and the engineering of the plane (combined with the software) led them down the wrong road. I wouldn't call that pilot error.
Poor training and a questionable trim system were so much a part of the problem that pilot error isn't the right conclusion IMHO.

You're not bright. You don't think through anything because someone else is doing your thinking for you, and whoever it is, isn't thinking through the opinions and beliefs he is handing you. It must suck to be you.

We're actually taking someone else's word for when Trump was born.
If you accept it as a fact, then it is a fact. With me, I don't think that CO2 is as bad as it's made out to be. For many people, it is a fact that CO2 levels are dangerously high. They accept what the IPCC is saying and not looking at what it's doing.

I think the issue, the actual problem the 737 has is that Boeing didn't want to extend it's landing gear. If they did that then it would look similar to an Airbus with the engines under the wings. And after that it's been one problem after another.

You also have to give CO2 credit for supporting all life on the planet, 24/7, for pretty much as long as there has been life on the planet, without ever asking for overtime!

I'm tellin' ya, old-school life-essential compounds like CO2 just don't get the respect they deserve. In fact, CO2 doesn't even get credit for making things organic anymore.

I'm going to be taking up a collection to help sequestered CO2 get back on its feet. Our society asks CO2 to deploy all over the world so that we can enjoy the freedoms we have, and then turns its back on it first opportunity.

I will be asking everyone to help spread awareness of the bullying CO2 is experiencing on a daily basis by displaying the green "CO2 is Life" ribbon.



Let's right these wrongs. Remeber, CO2 has been producing completely organic world leaders for millenia. I think it's time we start showing a little respect.

You're such an idiot. God, if you knew anything you'd be dangerous. Have you ever dropped a small pellet of dry ice (CO2) into someone's beer in a bar?
You just don't know how to have fun, do you? I bet you hang out with Harvey.
Dry ice will empty any beer in a foam. It'll just start pouring (foam) out of the glass until there is no more beer. That's because of convection.
The beer turns to foam to move cold (dry ice, CO2) to hot. Don't you know anything about thermodynamics? Science is a great bar joke because people don't think that cold can flow to hot.


Sadly you're the opposite of Harvey. Ever hear a climate scientist talk about the need to get it right? On the one hand we have you and on the other we have Harvey. This is funny because then there is Goldilocks and we live in what? The Goldilocks Zone, it's just right.

I don't make a habit of it, no. Are you under the impression that I suggested such?

Wait a minute, you're about to tell us that you have actually done that, aren't you? Cool! Tell me what happens.

Do you think we could use dry ice to power a convection oven? ... maybe if we had enough beer?

James___ wrote: The beer turns to foam to move cold (dry ice, CO2) to hot.

Well, it's more like the heat of the beer flows rapidly into the dry ice causing the CO2 from the dry ice to "bubble the beer" which creates a lot of foam.


... but I'm digging your dry-ice convection oven idea.

James,
Re: 737Max.
I take it you mean make a longer landing gear to get the clearance rather than move the engines forward and change the soft ware to compensate.
Potential problems re the extended LG. More weight, could there be a problem fitting the longer LG into the wing, more drag from the longer landing gear causing the plane to pitch forward (how much???), etc. etc. There are always tradeoffs in such things and i'm sure there were many meetings discussing your thought.
I don't know the number or the magnitude of the problems with your plan but i like it. It would be my style.
The tendency to fix basic problems with automation is just overdone.

That is the direct violation of thermodynamics that I mentioned. If you don't understand how that is a violation then you should probably brush up on the matter.



What is it in atmospheric radiation that you think violates thermodynamics ?

If you could explain that (since you refered to both SB and the 2nd law) it would be interesting to know - no offence intended.

I stand corrected up to a point. The Airbus a220 also has it's engines forward and up. I made a picture so the profiles of both planes can be compared.

While it does look like Airbus' landing gear is slightly taller, that would allow its engines to sit slightly lower. I tried searching if the height the door on the plane has to match a specific gate at an airport. Basically if the gate has height restrictions on how much it can be raised. If so then having taller small planes might mean new gates which would mean added cost.

It's a complaint about the poor training overseas pilots often receive. Blame their governments and their airlines.

Their training and the engineering of the plane (combined with the software) led them down the wrong road. I wouldn't call that pilot error.

I would. The plane is quite flyable with a completely wild trim system IF you are trained to handle it.
keepit wrote:
Poor training and a questionable trim system were so much a part of the problem that pilot error isn't the right conclusion IMHO.

Yes it is. I blame the fault for this poor training squarely on the foreign governments and airlines that trained them.

I think the issue, the actual problem the 737 has is that Boeing didn't want to extend it's landing gear. If they did that then it would look similar to an Airbus with the engines under the wings. And after that it's been one problem after another.


They did extend the landing gear.

You can't move the engines forward. Balance would be adversely affected. The plane could never take off.

They also enlarged the landing gear bays.

The only helps to compensate for the lower engine thrust point.

What automation? Aircraft are not designed by robots.

He'd argue that they moved the plane back and down. I think the problems with the Max8 might be the slight upwards tilt of the engines. During take off, that would definitely help to push the nose up. Airbus didn't do that and has no problems with the "pitch" of it's plane. And that's what the MCAS is compensating for.

James,
Looking at the plane it does kind of look like that but that might be just the nacelles and not the engine thrust vector.

ITN does like to argue. I like to agree.
