I'm sure everyone will have their opinions. Mark Eby, our very own Mr. Math, has been quite vocal with his.

But as in impact events, the facts are the facts. The big question is why this mass insanity is occuring, why "global warming" is so widely accepted despite the facts, and why the solutions proposed usually involve trading paper instead of nuclear electric power generation.

Since the behavior isn't rational, we're looking at non-rational behavior, and so far the analyses of this non-rational behavior have been lacking in clarity.

Personally, it's not my problem. I'm more interested in the Porco-Neukum alliance, where Porco gives Neukum (now there's an unbiased researcher) first shot at the Cassini data, with the expected results.

As it seems likely the Democrats will take control of the House, the hour is now upon us here in the US.

        An honest discussion would admit current CO2 levels are actually ~380ppm. - et - 11/6/2006 11:44:08 PM
        
        Then CO2's effect on temperature is even less - E.P. - 11/7/2006 4:30:58 PM
