Climate Change Will Chase 100 Million Refugees Into Europe

Ah, so arming and funding a new set of dictators is some sort of penance. That makes /(sense).

Cheers, James Arthur

Sum them up and expect WW III soon.

Me thinks AGW is a hoax. But that's simply me.

It's certainly a constant feature of US foreign policy. The Banana republics got set up so that United Fruit could import bananas into the USA as cheaply as possible, and the promotion of trade-union-bashing military dictators was part of the package.

Pinochet's revolution in Chile is the most recent obvious example. Admittedly, the Chicago Boys were more interested in copper than in bananas, but the principles - or lack of principle - involved seems to be much the same.

Don't let it worry you. James Arthur is much cleverer than you, and he thinks it's a hoax too. He's brainwashed, rather than foolishly gullible, but the effect is the same.

Joe,

There are 15-year-olds and 15-year-olds. Some know more than others. Some enjoy challenging material more than others. Depending on how well you know the kid, your best bet might be to let him read some samples and choose for himself.

If you have a stack of back issues of AmSci -- or any of the others -- on hand, why not just let him look them over? Or pick up some newsstand issues of whatever you're considering for him to review.

Then talk to him about what he's read. Odds are good he'll enjoy the attention, and you'll both probably learn something about each other.

( Free advice, and worth every penny! )

More like mass delusion. It will be remembered as history's biggest, most scandalous failure of institutionalized science.

It's all George Bush's fault, or hadn't you heard?

True, but I also don't know how interested he is. He seems more interested in History and Geography. But then again, Sky and Telescope has been a success. So an experiment is in order.

But the problem with SciAm now is that it's verging on a scandal sheet. Nor do I have any of the old issues - long gone, by decades.

Joe Gwinn

Yeah, I think too he is cleverer than me. And you will never know for sure whether it's him or you that is brainwashed, although in your case I also suspect malevolence.

joe

Mass delusion, yes, and corrupt science came before that. Not just 'failure'.

joe

Depends on whom you talk to, Rep or Dem.

I can be pretty sure that it's him. He doesn't believe in Keynesian economics either, preferring the implausible - but mathematically tractable - perfect market.

John Larkin - one of nature's more gullible suckers - believes much too much of what he gets from the Murdoch media.

This being Joey Hey, any request to identify any of the "corrupt science" w ill fall on deaf ears.

The problem with this claim is that the corruption in science that can be i dentified as going on now involves payments from the fossil-carbon extracti on industry to aging emminent scientists (who don't happen to know much abo ut climate science) to claim that there are doubts about aspects of anthrop ogenic global warming.

spells out the story, and the history behind it.

is regularly up-dated, so you can work out who is bribing who now.

I don't see what Keynes has to do with it but apparently you are a staunch believer of Keynes. So what? I think by the way that the Austrian school is more in touch with reality.

joe

You imply the Murdoch media isn't very good. I think you're right. But I didn't see him making statements about Murdoch, so I don't know what he believes in that respect. If you do, you must be clear voyant, or at least claim to be. That makes your opinion very incredible. And your statements with it. But we already knew that. :)

joe

Joe Hey already indicated where the fraud is. And there is much more, don't you worry.

And from the agricultural and pharmaceutical industries also.

Yes, you are selective with your source, because when I come up with a reference you don't accept them based on your ad-hominem non-arguments.

joe

You would.
