		<description>&quot;In the meantime, it is foolish to destroy our lives with fear for no reason. Accept what comes and adapt.

Additionally, it is patently obvious that the only thing globaloney turns out to be is a replacement for the failed ideas of socialism. Socialism failed to destroy capitalism and the United States. So, now they hide their attacks under the faux rubric of “saving the earff.”&quot;

I don&#039;t know what you thought you were saying, but to me that sounded like dismissal of all the things climate scientists have been advocating- energy efficiency, microgeneration, renewables, reduced reliance on dwindling fossil fuels- that would lead to energy independence.  I was simply pointing out that it&#039;s not about destroying our way of life, quite the opposite.  A greener future- even if you remain in denial of Carbon etc.s effect on the climate- will be better for all of us.</description>

		<description>Oh, and by the way, your little name calling rant about &quot;energy independence&quot; was amusing. Obviously YOU are &quot;too dumb&quot; to stay on topic without going off track. I never said thing ONE about being against energy independence of new forms of energy.

If you have to resort to misdirection to &quot;prove&quot; your arguments, you obviously haven&#039;t a leg to stand on.

(And for your edification, I am 100% for any new types of energy that proves effective helping us to energy independence. But the two -- globaloney and energy -- don&#039;t necessarily have anything to do with each other but tangentially.)</description>

		<description>Oh, I get it alright. You have allowed yourself to be taken in by flawed science. You&#039;ve rejected all the scientific reports that show that the methodology of the reports you believe is based on flawed computer simulations.

The single biggest flaw with globaloney theories is that they get money when they prove there IS globaloney. So, miraculously, they see globaloney everywhere so they can get more money.

But, even that aside, few of even the scientists that believe in it will down play that &quot;fact&quot; of it all. They will throw disqualifiers in to downplay the veracity.

Anyway, I simply have seen enough doubting science out there that I believe it disqualifies the globaloney alarmists.

And STILL, as I said up top, if global climate change comes, we will adapt. So, ultimately, I am not worried that much about it.</description>

		<description>You obviously don&#039;t get it, but I&#039;ll try again.  The basis of science is that a particular hypothesis or theory could be wrong- that is why they are tested.  And most research finds out something new about the subject.  Very rarely this completely changes the way the subject is viewed.  More normally it answers some questions and adds detail to what was known.

Man-made global warming is a theory that has been tested many times.  And almost every time the results have come back and shown that it&#039;s actually worse than previously thought.  You&#039;re the fool for thinking that something&#039;s going to magicaly appear that vindicates your denial when all the evidence is for you being wrong.

As for destroying your way of life, what utter nonsense.  I want to see changes that will make each household, not just each country, develop energy independence.  Just think what you could achieve with a net-zero carbon home.  No fuel bills, no worries about whether the actions of people in the Middle East, or London or Washington will affect your standard of living.  More money.  Even if you&#039;re too blind to see the problem, surely you can&#039;t be so dumb as to want to opt out of improving your life.</description>

		<description>... and there&#039;s where you and others like you are wrong about at least about me, anyway.

I never said &quot;climate change&quot; is not occurring, or isn&#039;t valid. I merely posit that man has no role in either creating, or stopping it.

Climate change has happened many, many times on this earth and guess what? It&#039;s never been &quot;catastrophic.&quot; I see no reason to doubt it may be happening again, but it is NOTHING to get your panties in a twist over.

If you live at the Ocean&#039;s edge and find the waters rising... I have an idea to help you out... MOVE TO HIGHER GROUND!

Climate change has occurred so many times and man is still here. It&#039;s called adapting. We&#039;ve done it before and if climate change comes, we&#039;ll do it again.

In the meantime, it is foolish to destroy our lives with fear for no reason. Accept what comes and adapt.

Additionally, it is patently obvious that the only thing globaloney turns out to be is a replacement for the failed ideas of socialism. Socialism failed to destroy capitalism and the United States. So, now they hide their attacks under the faux rubric of &quot;saving the earff.&quot;

Lastly, however, I love you globaloney zealots and your use of science. You seem to want to claim that science is perfect. That if I, for instance, reject one scientific claim and accept another, I am being &quot;hypocritical.&quot; But science changes nearly everyday in some way or another. So, it ISN&#039;T hypocritical to assume that science CAN be wrong.

I want to remind you that science ISN&#039;T consensus. At one time, the &quot;scientific&quot; consensus was that the world was flat. Was THAT &quot;consensus&quot; correct?

No, in truth YOU are the hypocrite... well, if not a hypocrite a fool... to believe that science is infallible, perfect, beyond question. In fact, I&#039;d posit that you have made your science into a false God.

Bow to it. believe it. Pray that it saves your soul.</description>

		<description>&quot;I’m glad you’ve decided which side of the religious argument to side with. All hail Algore the prophet.&quot;

And that is why I called you a hypocrite.  Hundreds, if not thousands of studies and experiments, consensus amongst the scientific community and visible, recorded effects- yet you dismiss it because you don&#039;t like Al Gore.  One study (which is as valid as any one of the thousands you dismiss) and you accept it because you don&#039;t like Jeremiah Wright and want to make him look like a fool.

If you&#039;re so sure climate change isn&#039;t valid then show me something substantive that disproves it.  Or claim that it&#039;s all a conspiracy and look just as dumb as the &quot;negroists&quot; you despise.</description>

		<description>Personally, I do believe Hiv was manmade and it&#039;s part of a wider and well protected conspiracy. I don&#039;t believe it&#039;s a Jewish o Zionist conspiracy, because I think that the power of Jews is widely overstimated. If Jews were really the masters of the world, Palestine would have already vanished. But the Aryan lobby is really a powerful lobby. Think about Germany and Italy: their regimes caused the war, they lost the war, they cause immense human tragedies and huge damage to the world economy. Who paid? The Soviet soldiers and the American taxpayers, who financed the recovery of Europe! Germany and Italy, instead of being punished, received benefits and now they even dare play racists. So, a lobby so powerful like the Nazi one, with assets hidden in safe haven, with key supporters in the American establishment, cannot have produced a biowarfare virus like Hiv? For what concerns the old sample of Hiv, I simply don&#039;t believe about this research.
Don&#039;t tell me America is not involved, but maybe also Soviet Union and other countries were involved in the plan with the specific purpose of controlling African resources.</description>
