No i call publishing a video using someones NAME attributing comments that he has not made to him and verbally demeaning and insulting him as libel - [][^] it goes to show that you are self delusional and egotistic but seem to have a single figure IQ Go away and research the subject, analyze the options for and against, understand the problem and them come back when you agree with me.

Are you one of those "science" worshipping fools? Do you understand that "scientists" claim that gravity *might* stop working at any time. These folks (by which word I mean 'fools') say it is vanishingly small that gravity will stop working, but nonetheless that it might. But really, do you have any reason to believe it is an illusion? Did I say that "the world" is an illusion? No, I did not. So, what did I say?

That was F'n awesome.

Geeze I read the Title as Oedipus Pussy! Time for some glasses or a cold shower! :)

The very subject gives me a vision of a little boy shouting about something to his parents or friends, "..an' it was the biggest booger ever!!!!"

There is something background to that post that I can, in a weird and extra-natural way, agree with.

Dalek Dave wrote: In true science, the metrics must be comparable. Or you need to correct for your error, for example, the claim that hurricanes have increased exists only because we can detect them better. Correcting for this ( showing only hurricans we could find with our older technology ) shows this to be false. There are ways to proceed that have integrity. Having better tech does not doom us from being able to do some research. Dalek Dave wrote: Using Tree Rings and Peat Levels is ok for a general -ish measuremnt of long term, broad measurements, but is not relaiable in terms of the 0.x C per Decade that the AGWers are talking about. Funny enough, I've let myself get sucked into this despite the fact that I've not read anything that talks about the pre industrial era, or in any way claims that we need to go back that far to find evidence of warming. Dalek Dave wrote: I would say that Human Activity has altered the climate Well, what's the argument then ? We started to alter the climate when we started to cut all the trees down. Dalek Dave wrote: I just argue that until there is more study, and more understanding, we as a world should not throw ourselves wholeheartedly behind something with possible disasterous consequences. Well, I would suggest you read 'the skeptical environmentalists guide to global warming'. It's an interesting read, and it probably will appeal to you ( I enjoyed it immensely ). His point is mostly to count the cost of any moves we make, and to understand the real figures, not the ones in the newspapers. Dalek Dave wrote: Nor should we just accept what governments say without any kind of reasoning, they say things not for our benefit, but for theirs, they need fear in order to rule. I don't think they need fear at all. I don't know anyone who is scared of my government, we're more amused by it. But, I agree 100% that fear of the end of the world is being used to manipulate people. My core point is, that doesn't prove that there is no such thing as global

Yep, that's the handle I couldn't recall. Thanks.

The best delivery time for bio-weapons is right around dawn or dusk, preferably dusk. The air changes that also make fog more likely at these times allow the agents to remain dispersed in the atmosphere longer, maximizing exposure. Dropping a barrel of these agents is inefficient and you really do want an aerosol delivery system. This system still lacks finesse as visibile signs of attack are often enough to cause people to remain indoors and thus removes the vast majority of the impact. The best way is to use an agent that can be introduced to the water supply and so can be spread quickly and effectively with little to no issues of a visible attack. Although some purifiers and other countermeasures may lower the number of individuals attacked, the increased dispersion will allow acceptable secondary casualties if an agent that takes hours to react but once active is extremely fast is used. Car accidents and other such casualties will allow for increased damage and terror. Serious bio-weapon attacks would involve something in the water that makes you react violently and you have little to no warning so aircraft pilots, car drivers and people working in dangerous work environments will cause secondary casualties. Mass hysteria and panic will quickly cause even more casualties. Bio-weapon attacks are used for terror, not for killing people. If you want to kill people, just poison their cereal.
