    That Penn and Teller stunt really showed what a gormless bunch of fuckwits the enviro crowd are. Did you see the other days WUWT vid of the fat Australian enviro twat they interviewed who actually discoursed on the destabilization of the US economy at some length? These environazis are nothing but anti capitalist, anti private wealth, anti US, anti corporate, anti globalisationists and have NO conmcerns at all for the environment. Yes, there are concerns with the behaviolur of come companies and some politicians in some countries, and these need addressing, but launching an attack on the worlds second most beneficial mollecule is not the way to do it!

    "It is a remarkable fact that despite the worldwide expenditure of perhaps US$50 billion since 1990, and the efforts of tens of thousands of scientists worldwide, no human climate signal has yet been detected that is distinct from natural variation."

      Yeah. Like the US Government needs any help.

      Anti globalisation? But how else can they achieve their New World Feudal Agrarian Order?

      Unfortunately, these are generally the most powerful corporations, politicians and countries in the world.

        And another thing ... Would I have signed the petitions? Yes. They're happy, because they think I've been duped. I'm happy, because I know they have been. It's like when you're an apprentice and some guy asks you to go to the Stock Room for a long weight. ('Wait' - geddit? - isn't that clever? - like you're really gonna fall for it? :doh: ). But hey, just leave the workplace, have a smoke, go back. You've made the old guy's day. Spread a little happiness.

            Thats not the point, but your response is typical of GW adherents: You try to discredit the source.

              If the source is wrong there's no credit to be had to the source. Discrediting sources who are wrong is called weighing the evidence. He's just pointed out the attribution error of the joke, don't overreact to it.

                It's impossible to overreact, when you are the sole arbiter of truth and everyone else is deluded. SAVE US, O OBESE ONE!! YOU ARE THE TRUTH AND THE LIGHT. SAVE US! Only you can prevent forest fires.

                          Awww, pity the poor lump. The combined stresses of a) being the only one who sees the light, and b) being surrounded by benighted masses, must be more than the poor thing can deal with. He needs to blow off steam occasionally, else he wouldn't be able to continue in his efforts to enlighten us. :-D [edit] typo [/edit]

                                  Your response is typical of GW adherents, fancy suggesting there is something between black and white :)

                                  Fat Body is one of them unloved, ineffectual, self-loathing and excretory daubing pompous individuals who are convinced that we should listen to every word as though it were gospel. Probably has low self esteem caused by being bullied at school, (which he obviously never attended on a regular basis given his terrible spelling), and his impotence is manifest with the constant attacks on anything he does not see as worthy. His constant desire to post on AGW is borderline OCD, underscored by other psychological conditions, and making ill-mannered attacks on those who he perceives as being 'arrogant' (ie educated). To be fair, he is not the worst, and when not going on endlessly about his pet subject, can be quite funny. I just wish he would drop it and join the community in a more mature and helpful way.

                                    The funny thing is that most of the French, being the arrogant English hating fuckers they are, probably also think he's a massive dick. He certainly needs a lot of attention. Looking forward to the Perth test?

                                      To be fair Damian all this shows is how politicised both sides of the argument are. Those that believe and those that don't will buy into almost anything that they feel confirms their 'faith'.

                                        I think it would be the case no matter which country he was living in.

                                          The only people to ever clobber Warne were the Indians in India. Anyway, that's only a joke. The real plan is to roll out Steve Waugh. My Mrs wont let me call our twin boys Steve and Mark :(
