Have you been a rude, name-calling idiot all your life, or is this a recent development? If the latter, I'm fairly sure that there's a 12-step program for people who suffer from whatever ailment you've acquired. If the former, you provide a strong argument in favor of post-natal abortion. Thank you. Casting aspersions on the beliefs of others by providing carefully selected, poorly supported references, then making personal attacks on those who disagree rather than providing logical, reasoned responses, is the mark of an ignorant imbecile. There is no excuse for such behavior among professionals, though I'm painfully aware that such exchanges occur all the time. We are a community of professionals, and if you can't participate in an appropriate manner, you are cordially invited to find another venue for your childish responses. We welcome reasoned discourse, and even have a forum devoted to such endeavors - It's called the Soapbox. But even there, such infantile responses are not respected, as is entirely proper and appropriate. Go away - shoo, shoo... Find a sandbox where you'll fit in; live long and prosper in your very limited way... We'd appreciate it if you don't reproduce, but that's a lot to hope for; your kind usually does.:mad: "...putting all your eggs in one basket along with your bowling ball and gym clothes only gets you scrambled eggs and an extra laundry day...

Im sorry. I thought New Scientist was a reputable publication. Obviously not nearly so informed as you. I googled for your name in the world's scientist lists but couldn't find you there. Maybe you should contact them because obviously you should be there being so brilliant and all. :laugh:

Obviously not nearly so informed as you. speaking as someone who has been reading the New Scientist magazine for years i can say that this is the wrong statement to make. they publish reports, and try to make sensible comments about them, to put them in context. you need to be aware of the basis of the reports published, the amount of evidence behind them, and also to read the follow up letters. i still remember a very interesting article many years ago on crop circles. it sounded sensible and reasonable and made sense to me, an intelligent reader who knew very little about the science involved. in the follow up letters it was ripped to shreds by people who did know about the science involved. so you cannot simply state "one report was published in this magazine, therefore it is fact, and all must bow before it". are humans messing around with the climate and the eco system? i think it is safe to say yes. do we know exactly what will happen as a result? no. zen is the art of being at one with the two'ness

In other words: Shove off, wanker.
