    Good to know! We don't need to see more countries breaking up in Europe.

    That has nothing to do with the current problems in the government. Those party's get stronger because of the very nature of our country. Everyone is welcome and everyone will get money out off the government(you just need to figure out how). This leads to thousands off emigrants coming here and 'leeching' off the working people. So a lot off those people start to vote for these party's. Not realizing that solving this problem (bye kicking those emigrants out) is only a very little part off what they have in mind. A few of the other points of the party you named are: -Woman at home, cooking, cleaning (so not working) -All kids (under 16 or 18) indoors before dark -... But those points are discussed openly so not many people know about them.

      And yet most Flems I have spoken to about this see a split as inevitable.

      I see it as a possibility not as inevitable. And if it does happen Belgium will still exist, most like the French part will join France and the Flemish part will operate independently (become Belgium). But we are far away from that, and I really don't think it will happen.

        So what is causing the current cooling trend?

            Sadly it's true (well not the part of the raping). They come here, have no job (and no interest in getting one, hell why would you), so nothing but time to figure out how to abuse the system. I have one of these living across the street. He doesn't work but has his own house (rent I think), 2 cars (nice one's) and disturbs the neighborhood (is playing music loudly till the late hours, works on his car till the late hours,...) Does this mean I vote for the 'Far Right' no, but I don't have to like it. I have a lot of friends who are emigrants and do work and do adjust to the culture here. But like with everything those 'few' (there are more and more lately) bad apples ruin it for the rest.

              Do you mean globally or locally? If you mean locally, and limit yourself to the northern hemisphere then since we have passed the shortest day it will be warming. However, we are still on a cooling trend this interglacial. Check out the vostock ice core data.

                That is an untested hypothesis since you have never got close to making a valid point.

                            If you look at Vostok data, you'll see that for the last 440,000 years CO2 level never exceeded ~300 ppm. We are now exceeding 380 ppm. If you look at EPICA and Vostok data, you'll see there's an evident correlation between CO2 proportion in the atmosphere and the temperature. Please explain why the current, exceptional rise of CO2 would this time have no effect at all whatsover on the climate?

                                Because the rise is very slight in terms of total atmospheric concentration. 0.03 to 0.038 percent to be exact and although CO2 absorbs IR its effect is not linear so further increase in CO2 will not trap any more IR and thus not cause any extra radiated warming. The very sloght warming CO2 causes is masked by many other factors, particularly albedo, which is affected by aerosols. Look at the post war cooling as proof of how much more powerfull aerosols are than CO2. It is also likely that the sun affects albedo since it has been known for a long time that sun spots cause an increase in temperature. (Herschel noticed this as long ago as 1805)

                                  If you want the trend you can get from Vostok daa: here they are[^]. From the data[^], on the last 240 samples representing ~10,000 years 60 show higher temperature than today and 180 show colder ones. On the last 100 samples, 14 show higher temperature when 86 show colder ones.

                                  nice try, but you don't answer my question. I repeat: Vostok data show a clear correlation between CO2 and temperature: why this time would there be no correlation?

From the data[^], on the last 240 samples representing ~10,000 years 60 show higher temperature than today and 180 show colder ones. On the last 100 samples, 14 show higher temperature when 86 show colder ones.

                                    nice try, but you don't answer my question. I repeat: Vostok data show a clear correlation between CO2 and temperature: why this time would there be no correlation?

                                    And temperature precedes CO2 by centuries. Are you saying higher temperatures cause higher CO2 because thats what the data suggests.

                                        Climate Change was at the top of the agenda when the XXIII Congress of the Socialist Inter- national met in Athens, Greece, from 30 June - 2 July 2008 Members of the Commission for a Sustainable World Society gathering in Stockholm on 5-6 September, hosted by the Swedish Social Democratic Party, SAP, warned that the worldwide economic downturn could not be allowed to slow down the pace of commitments to climate change and urged the international community to produce solid results leading to an agreement at the forthcoming United Nations Conference of the Parties to the Climate Convention (COP-14) to be held in Poznan in December this year.

As soon as you get close to making a valid point they start name calling. Their sole interest is in seeing global socialism.

                                        Well, if you were looking for a little new proof of the ties between the two - and perhaps a sign that the US is about to dismember what is left of its industrial base, try this: Obama climate czar has socialist ties[^] or, simply google on Obama socialist climate[^]

                                          Exactly. It's their best argument to date for a global government. AGW isn't the concern, hell it isn't even real, it's just turned out to be a very powerful tool to further their socialist agenda. But then, the stance of the left on most issues, and the issues they choice to stand on all point to that same agenda as well. Funny how they work so hard to hide their real agenda behind other issues, they know their true wish wouldn't be accepted by most people.
