    Never mind the Philistines who voted you down, Dave. But I just checked the score and found we piled on 329. :cool: At this moment, I think you'd rather talk about global warming than cricket, no? ;P

    Cheers, Vıkram.

      Don't get me wrong here, it is not the topic I object to. People talk about all sorts of interesting and varied things in this particular forum, and that's great. It is the five separate threads almost every day which could quite easily be condensed into one main thread where people could actually contribute without it being made meaningless before they've finished typing it. Sometimes the threads will appear within just minutes on one another, making it quite clear he is only interested in Satips' style post and run comments and the occasional insult than any sort of real debate. How you can enjoy a post that consists of nothing you don't find verbatim on the homepage of any semi-political news feed I don't understand. :confused:

      I find the topic very interesting. Coming from other forums that were nearly 100% for global warming and if we don't do anything the world will destruct tomorrow attitude, I find fat_boy's posts rather refreshing. Every forum has a large signal to noise ratio. It's up to all of us to determine the amplitude of that signal. :laugh:

        So who actually reads fat boy's post here anymore? It's like spring when the farmers spread muck on their crops, or the Soapbox during a US election -- you can't breathe without getting a mouthfull of shit. Please bring back Cricket. O Satipis, where art thou?

        I do, at least as much as i read anyone's posts in this forum. I will admit to finding it a bit too tedious wading through the replies, though.

              Well there's your problem right there. Don't sign up to Pro Global Warming forums and you wouldn't have anything to worry about! :rolleyes:

                I wouldn't say I signed up for any pro global whining forums. The forum in question is much like the soapbox, but filled with liberal proganda. :zzz:

                        That isnt true is it, my posts are original thought. There has been no presentatio anywhere else of the two obvious contradictions of the IPCC I posted about, nor of the fact that the recently corrected US data makes up for a big percentage of the quality data for the whole century.
