    Cheese sandwich is good, yes - but Bacon Butty is better! Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together. Manfred R. Bihy: "Looks as if OP is learning resistant."

    But surely a processing temperature >= 38C (critical for good curd formation), rather than the typical 30C to 35C used for ripening and setting of cheese milk will contribute to global warming? This paper should have been denounced, and the perpatrators' carbon sequestered. The 1-legged bar stool of understanding is supported by booze.

    Which has nothing to do with what I said. One isn't "rich" unless there is in fact something that one can acquire which others cannot. And most often it means many more options and substantially much more accumulation of those optionals items as well. A billionaire might not be able to build and run a super tanker fleet and a large oil processing plant but they wouldn't need to either to support whatever fancy they had. They can buy a small well, find ways to transport the crude and process it at a small plant can thus continue use it as they want. Your original statement suggested that there was some strategy that would preclude the "rich" from acquiring fossil fuels even if they wanted it. Which simply is not true. Again because that is the basis of the very definition of what "rich" means.

    Not all Muslims. It was leaders from both sides and their ego which was responsible for the partition, not the common man. Regarding Afghanistan & Pakistan the root cause of problem is the division of people by Durand line (which was result of treaties between the Britain and Russia).

    riced wrote: For the FACE results, demonstrate that they will not be carried over to the actual environment. Wrong. The FACE experiments got a 16% increase in yield. Farmers have ben using CO2 enrichment, recomended as 1000 PPM by at least one government, to increase crop yields for decades. riced wrote: Also demonstrate that a 1 degree rise in temperature will not remove an equal or greater offsetting amount of crops from production. Due only to temperature? Easy, farmers have been using greenhouses to grow plants for centuries. riced wrote: Now I don't think you can demonstrate these effects Just did. riced wrote: Just think of the number of drugs that have been tested, both in labs and clinical trials, that have either proved ineffective or produced unexpected side effects e.g. Thalidomide. If it had been tested for as long as Farmers have been using greenhouses and CO2 enrichment they would have come across its side effects. Like I said, Farmers have been using greenhouses and CO2 enrichment for a vey long time to increase crop yields. Those are the facts. Proved, empirical, known. :) Sure, you are going to say that in the 'real world', which is according to you is somehow different to the thousands of square kilometers of greenhouses used globally things will be different. But do you have any kind of evidence that that is so?
