  1. “rob- I thought we established yesterday that Jew and Hipster cannot be one and the same? I defer to DH on this :)”

    If we use the critera that you all use to judge someone a hipster – by definition a Hasidic Jew is the ORIGINAL Williamsburg hipster

  2. noklissa,

    my, my, how uncharacteristically raunchy of you!

    would these same scientist be included in the earlier
    e-mail scandal I posted?

    again, if there were a true consensus, there wouldn’t be 31,000 scientists signing on against the idea.

    question; has there ever been a hypothesis believed by a majority, then disproven by a minority;
    answer; yes

  3. In a nutshell, the more actively and substantively one studies the Earth’s climate the more likely one is to conclude that human activity is a significant contributing factor. And climatologists are substantially more likely than scientists at large to come to that conclusion.

    I suspect you, Legion, know this to be true, but you have dug your teeth in. Rather like a grinning ferret. Just to see if you can get all them damn liberals up in arms over the less than compelling nay saying.

    Etson- you should look into ecology, not just the environment. Unfortunately people have become so fixated on the words “global warming” they tend to separate it out from the entire problem. The earth is an enormous ecosystem that continually shifts and changes its balance. But when changes in one thing are too extreme, it can’t recover. So that goes back to my question- what’s a liveable planet worth? I have to say priceless.
