Germany to require citizens to carry RFID cards...
-
The German Interior Ministry confirmed on Monday that new identification cards containing radio-frequency (RFID) chips will be introduced starting November 1, 2010 – but some data protection experts are critical of the decision. http://www.thelocal.de/sci-tech/20091214-23931.html[^]

Hi, villein You need no identity card, you have no identity, being merely the vassal of your Liege Lord. Faceless and nameless in the ranks of the servile, your life will pass unremarked, and your grave will be unmarked. Go, prostrate yourself in the Great Hall, His Lordship returns, and wishes to wipe his boots clean.

As you have not attempted to determine His Lordship's veracity, here is evidence of its absence. In the video Lord Monckton versus "Greenpeace"[^], His Lordship states that he takes the satellite data, and plots the least-squares linear-regression trend. He says that for the past 10 years there has been a cooling trend. He says that for the past 15 years there has been a warming trend (but, he hastens to add, not statistically significant). These are arbitrary periods, chosen because they prove his point. Had he chosen 20 or 25 years, it would have proven his opponents' point (and 5 years would have shown a ludicrous plummeting towards an Ice Age). What does His Lordship think of those who select arbitrary periods that prove their point? "[A] shoddy statistical abuse that no reputable scientific body would ever depend upon". (See Caught Green-Handed (PDF)[^], page 25) Nuff said.

In my mind, Lord Monckton's main point is that the people who are fasting or protesting, or whatever, are generally ignorant. At least, that's the point he makes that I feel is 100% valid. That he also fudges the data to make his point does not surprise me, but the fact that his opponents cannot answer his true points ( polar bears are not drowning, the ice caps are not disappearing, etc ), or point out the problem with his ones that are based on fudged data, proves that the people who are making it their lifes effort to protest, are still too lazy to know what the real facts are.

Everyone knows who fudged the data to hide the decline. The scandal was given the name of Climategate. Lord Monckton simply stated the fact that there has been a cooling trend for the past ten years that has not been accounted for by the CRU, which had deleted much of its data, and attempted to hide that decline.

Your problem is that you seem incapable of rational thought, and need instead to choose a side and blindly believe it. That is why you will be taken advantage of, your entire life.

You wouldn't happen to know if these are active or passive RFID chips would you? If they're passive it's the same kind of thing used on pets, takes a special reader and makes identification actually possible. If not for the freakout factor some people have when they hear RFID I'd say toss them into all IDs for the difficulty to forge/ease of checking.

Looks like someone didn't bother to read the article I linked to pointing out "Climategate" is a bunch of BS and the data is accurate. "But ragnarok, they deleted data and called it the trick" Yea, they deleted tree ring data taken from a point where the data stops being accurate (possibly because the rings are too young for the system to work properly) and they put in ACTUAL NUMBERS. I can imagine that conversation right now... "I say Jim, we know from temps taken in the early 1800s that tree rings are pretty accurate. The problem is that they seem to stop being accurate when they are less than 30 years." "Egads man, how bad is it?" "Well, comparing it to our known temps it is off by a bit." "So, old bean, why don't we just, I don't know, use the accurate data?" "BY JOVE! What a smashing idea! Won't someone get mad though?" "Why would they? We just want to be accurate. Besides, it isn't like we are part of some global conspiracy to destroy the industrial complex of several nations which are already reeling and cause an international power base for our Illuminati masters to be able to finish their thousand year plan to conquer the world and allow their alien overlords to quickly and efficiently control the planet. I say, is this some sort of listening device for Alex Jones?"

Most of us are.

Mmm! Fudge! When a person displays that degree of sophistry, you should then doubt the veracity of any statement they utter. He carefully qualifies his statements, the area of polar ice, land falling hurricanes. What of the volume of polar ice, the number and intensity of all hurricanes?

She did point out that she lived in Norway, that she had seen glacier shrinkage over the past 20 years, that new flora and fauna were present because of climate change.

No he didn't. His Lordship's cooling trend can be derived from the IPCC (CRU) data too (as demonstrated by His Lordship in these 4 graphs)[^]. "If we begin in 1993 (top left) and advance the start-date for the global temperature data successively by 4 years at a time, the UN’s own data show the world heading for an Ice Age. Using the same data as the UN’s climate panel, we reach a diametrically opposite (and equally unjustifiable) conclusion." 'Caught Green Handed'[^] (page 25). (Interestingly, His Lordship acknowledges that his arbitrary 10 year cooling trend is unjustifiable.) ragnaroknrol has explained to you what "hide the decline" means. You are just too dumb to get it.
Bob Emmett sophistry: unsound or misleading but clever, plausible, and subtle, argument or reasoning.
