We knew this, but it's nice to actually see it.

A plan is just a list of things that doesn't happen.
Is defenestration possible through the overton window?

That's one of the stupidest things I've ever read.

So this "scientist" is willing to sacrifice what he sees as good science in the holy name of being published. It's good to see this being confirmed, but it's a sad day when "scientists" not only do this, but even admit to doing it.

Is having ice in your drinks racist yet?
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

I wonder what their uniforms will look like?

It is already a cult.  I guess once it gets going they can have the IRS designate it as a religion for tax purposes.

Yeah - I meant official government cult. Which means I got the uniforms wrong.

John Kerry is apparently saying that because of global warming we won't be able to feed all the people in the world but we have to curtail agricultural emissions because they're one of the biggest contributors to global warming.

Here in Idaho, if the temps got to what they are claiming, it would just mean farmers could double crop, like they do in California, instead of only having one crop a year.

This is VERY BAD ADVICE.  Fear is control, if they keep you afraid, angry and fighting amongst each other, they can CONTROL you.   Obama, does NOT care about climate change.  He had several thousand-gallon propane tanks installed on one of his properties.  He could afford solar and wind, yet he chose to use PROPANE.  Kids need to start thinking for themselves, doing the proper research and THEN deciding what path to take.  "Choose your battles wisely".

In climate related news it is being reported insurance companies are dropping people after they install solar panels.
Could be more to this

So some insurance companies don't want to cover the panels, but you can shop around.

I was also wondering if the installations will hold up against hurricane force winds to the same degree as the roof?  I bet some don't.
