You can't spend your way out of global warming. Spending money causes the production of CO2.
Don't forget, AGW is piggybacking on top of natural causes of GW making the sea level rise sooner and higher.

How many of these threads are you going to start? Ignorance is not knowing any better. Stupid, is failing, then doing the same thing over, failing again, and keep trying to do the exact same thing, expecting a different result. Don't you learn anything? Perpetual motion machines don't work either...

Harvey55, you shouldn't talk about yourself that way. Have you talked to your doctor about these problems you're having? The Red Sox and even the Cubs have won the World Series. It's time to quit living in the past.
They didn't give up on winning the World Series because of years of futility. Maybe you should've been their coach?

Now that's one silly analogy, baseball is a sport, all teams do the same things, some are just better it, and win. Baseball players are also human beings, which aren't perfect, and make mistakes, sometimes costing the game.

I've never real 'had' a doctor, I only use their services, when I'm seriously injured, which has been very rare. My last doctor, performed my abdominal surgery (appendix ruptured), did a fine job, recovered quickly. That was last August (2018). Before that, I broke my foot at work, December 2003. Don't remember any of the names, not so pleased with their services. Doubt my foot was actually broken. After 3-4 weeks, it was just a little stiff and sore, but no bad pain. Most definitely didn't need 12 weeks. There was nothing obvious showing on any X-ray, just the swelling, and nature of the injury. Workman's Comp, so it wasn't a big deal. 1989, I had a deep cut on my forearm, blood every where. Little concerned about a major vessel, and bleeding to death. Showed up at the emergency room, blood soaked towel wrap around my arm, dripping on their floor. Had to take a seat, fill out forms, wait some more. Dude with a stubbed toe, they took right in... By the time I finally got to see someone, it had stopped bleeding on it's own. Got 5 stitches, removed them myself about a week later. That's pretty much my adult medical history, and all the doctors I've seen. My mental health has never come into question, outside of the internet, by people hardly qualified, and have some serious issues of their own.

So says the Chant Master, need a list? You commonly use the same phrases, multiple times in the same post, dozens of times in most every thread. I know that I have a person problem with repetition, but understand it's my problem. Also understand why people use it, mostly to annoy other people. I get it the first time, either agree or not, repeating it, is going to change my opinion, I remember quite well.

Because I am responding to the same chants. It is not me that is chanting. I am simply quoting the same theories of science that are ignored, the same math that is ignored, the same fallacies that people use, etc.
Theories of science don't change. Mathematics is a closed functional system. The rules for statistical mathematics don't change. Logic is a closed functional system. The logic that people here are ignoring rarely changes. They just keep using the same fallacies while they chant.

Fallacy fallacy.

The 2 of you are describing resonant frequency. When 2 objects interact they can emit a sound that resonates through atmospheric gases. Kudos to the 2 of you for such an example of how 2 mediums can interact. I just wonder if infrared frequencies interacted with something if they could resonate causing a compound or domino effect?
The 2 of you are simply brilliant at show how infrared wavelengths could cause CO2 molecules to resonate it's behaviours through other smaller, lesser molecules in our atmosphere. That is what the 2 of you desire to illustrate, right?
Who knows, if you guys keep it up I might buy into your argument that CO2 is causing global warming.

I'm sorry to regress into simpler arguments but i can't get away from the fact that the ice is melting and clouds (water vapor) hold in heat, the transfer of energy from earth (the dirt and rock) to outer space. The same with CO2.

It is well documented that arctic sea ice is melting and greenland ice sheet is shrinking.
I know, i know, melting icebergs in the arctic don't increase sea level. I mention it as evidence that the temp is rising.

No, it isn't. The winter ice extent at both poles has been increasing for the past several years. In 2014, the ice extent (the area of ice) reached a record high, the highest ever recorded. There was more ice than had ever been seen in the Antarctic. These are records on file at the snow and ice data center in Boulder, CO.

No, it isn't.
This is where one of us is sipping the wrong Koolaid. I haven't been there but i've seen satellite photos.

The winter ice extent at both poles has been increasing for the past several years.

The winter ice in Antarctica is increasing i know because it is so cold there that it just builds up (even though the temp is increasing).

In 2014, the ice extent (the area of ice) reached a record high, the highest ever recorded. There was more ice than had ever been seen in the Antarctic. These are records on file at the snow and ice data center in Boulder, CO.

Of course i'm not questioning the land ice in the antarctic.

As i understand it most of Ross is on land with supporting ice actually touching the sea but suspended to a certain extent by the connection to the remainder of ross. The part that is touching the sea is being warmed by warmer ocean temps
(i know, it is a supposition based on evidence of warming) and if it melts too much the support for the rest of ross will fail and collapse into the sea (tipping point, no pun intended).

However, maybe you could really promote the sale of temp sensors to global warming believers. Then you could make extra millions and then you wouldn't have to try to steal my medicare funding. Just friendly razzing.

Nope. It's floating. Ice actually has poor tensile strength. Hanging like you describe would've broken off long ago.

The only way Earth could be warming is if the output of the Sun is increasing.

The only way Earth could be warming is if the input from the Sun is increasing.

The sun's output can remain constant but the earth's orbital distance could decrease, thus increasing the input from the sun whose output hasn't changed.

Quite true. Our perihelion does mean the southern hemisphere gets more intense summer temperatures then the northern hemisphere since it occurs during our winter. Our winters are milder as well.

At aphelion, Earth is moving a tad slower, and occurs during our summer, making our summers longer and milder, and the southern hemisphere's winters longer and colder.

The Earth's orbit is nearly circular, so the difference is small, but it is there.

From year to year, though, the sun's output is the major factor, simply because of the periodic nature of our orbit.

I don't think it's worth speculating moving Earth out of its orbit.

That's easy for you to say.


It's as easy as pronouncing Hawaii's State fish. It's a cute little thing, about 2-3 inches in length, and rather pretty. The word for it is longer than the fish (assuming a readable font).

From what i read ice is melting faster than it is forming except in antarctica.
But, if the various ice shelf in antarctica melt and the antarctic glaciers flow that would be bad.

This doesn't mean the planet isn't warming.


The only way Earth could be warming is if the output of the Sun is increasing.


The earth retains heat locally and temporarily when there is cloud cover.

Call it a revelation... Al Gore's movie, and the IPCC reports of similar non-evidence. If you look into them a little closer, you'll find that they take normal, common things that happen every year, and spin it into a 'sign'. Ice melts in warmer weather, like during the summer months, but freezes, or is added to during the cold seasons. The only tell one part of most everything. Anything they can use to sell 'global warming', which is a season thing, happens every year.

Ice core samples mean nothing, CO2 isn't trapped in ice, it moves freely as do most other gasses. Ice melts every year, no way of knowing which years more ice melted, than was replaced. Nothing to compare or correlate with, maybe tree growth rings? Lot of things effect annual growth, you can tell the basic age of a tree, little else. There are a lot of other this misused, or misrepresented. Some are pretty easy to spot, others you have to dig. Lot's of unanswered questions, because some of the key papers cited are behind a paywall, which after reading several others cited that were free, and basically useless, you aren't willing to pay to read.

Ice melts every year, big chunks break off and float around every year, been a boat hazzard for as long as there of been boats on the ocean. Remember the Titanic? That was only one of many, remembered most because it was designed and built specifically to be unsinkable if it hit a chunk of ice, which it did anyway.

All the signs of global warming having been happening all along, some years are worse than others. We go through periods, where these things are hardly noticeable, other years are tragic. It's natural, and nothing unusual, unless you want to believe differently. Unfortunately, not as many people read or study anymore, they simply watch TV, and believe.

What do you mean by "heat"? Do you mean something other than a flow of thermal energy?

What do you mean by "retains"? Do you mean thermal energy ceases to flow freely per Stefan-Boltzmann?

Maybe my scientific terminology gets a little sloppy, sorry.
Anyway, by heat and retain i meant that the temp stays higher than it would if there were no thermal insulator.

What you are reading it wrong.

The amount of additional energy required to melt that much ice is tremendous. That much additional energy would roast the equator to a cinder.

The ice is not melting. Don't panic.
