Yeah we're all sinners. Seriously - 'man made global warming' is turning into a cult.

It's a very scary movement that is trying to restrict what 3rd world countries can do.

Kinda reminds me of the 'year 2000 bug'... "Oh no the worlds computers will blow up!!! You better all spend loads of money on fixing it" "Oh.... nothing much happened... well thank god we spent all that money 'fixing' it."

If you have some intelligent argument to make, go ahead. However, it doesn't look like you do.

At the moment you look like the person with his fingers in his ears spouting out endless "If X then Y", that you seem to think somehow 'proves your point'.

Did you read the article? Read any other scientific articles on the subject? Or are you just a 'believer'

I've done both. Are you or gibsonf1 familiar with the mechanics of political oppo tactics? This is a hit piece and not a very subtle one either. The title says it all. It is designed to be the jumping off point for right-wing attackers.

Am I a believer? Yes, In science! Link to a science based article questioning the conventional wisdom of climate change? Fine. Great. All for it. Bring it on. Let's debate. But lazily link to a piece of sensationalized right-wing propaganda when this feed should be primarily about news related to the world of computers and computer science and I feel the best response is parody.

If gibsonf1 hates Al Gore and buys into the perverted slander built up by his political opponents and the Washington Beltway establishment, thats fine too. But he shouldn't bring it on to the Hacker News feed, unless he WANTS Hacker News to head down a road that leads to a site burned a nice crispy shade of brown by battalions of political talking point agenda bots.

So I suppose you've "read other scientific articles on the subject"? Guess that makes you a "knower"?
