FG-840 debating style is the same way someone going to jail debates. If you can't answer the question, attack the person asking it.
It's obvious from the spelling, grammar, and knowledge of science this guy knows less then the average 9 year old. He thinks the earth is a rock without an atmosphere or molten core and he calls the atmosphere 'magical gasiness'. All he's done for a hundred posts is repeat the same stupid shit over and over again. It's almost impressive.
I'm still waiting for proof that there is a greater diversity of species during a global optimum then a glacial maximum? Of course I won't ever see it because he made it up like everything else.
I've said this before but this is the sort of dimwit who represents climate deniers nowadays. There's no longer a real scientific debate about it. The only people left to oppose it are the mentally deranged, crack pots, and oil companies.
One other thing here for The Powers That Be. I hate censorship, even crackpots should have their say. But this guy's destroyed this thread. It's up to 161 posts without any meaningful exchange going on. I looked to see if this guy's a grower or has contributed anything cannabis related. I don't think he has. All I see is a hundred posts about climate. I think a tidier site would be better for everyone...
God damn Yamaha, I love how I can't read your shit. Ignore is a god send.
Start contributing some evidence for your claim ice supports more life than the grasslands and forests, that appear when ice recedes.
Its like some dodgy religion, full of deniers and believers
Where was it a record cold? At the north pole? South Pole? Africa? Your back yard? Last summer or last winter? This is called bias. Of course it's going to be colder somewhere and hotter somewhere else. You need to look at ocean averages because water takes a long time to warm and a long time to cool down. It stores a lot of energy so yearly fluctuations don't affect it the way the land does.forget the record cold of the last two years
Hold on there buckaroo.
On his website McLean describes himself as a "computer consultant and occasional travel photographer". In 2006, McLean published his first peer-reviewed paper -- a "review" of CSIRO reports -- in the journal Energy and Environment. In the scientific community, E&E is regarded as a bottom-of-the-barrel journal. It is the journal of choice for loony papers, amateur enthusiasts and semi-retired climate sceptic scientists who have no credentials in the field of climatology.
Yet another right wingnut wannabe climate scientist.
I already did Stupid! I said that melting glaciers provide drinking water and irrigation. I said half the world would dry up without it. You haven't answered it all you've done is babble your witless moronic babble. Show me I'm wrong: let's see the research papers.
Same with global optimum you are still misusing the term like an idiot. Show me some research you've read that says the diversity of species increases during an optimum. Unless you do that you lose.
I've already explained how it's not. A religion relies on faith. Science is based on research. You observe and record the results without letting bias influence what you observe. This is how humanity gets smarter, by understanding the natural world around them.

Overall on average it is getting much warmer. This is why the Arctic is freezing later and melting sooner. This is why glaciers that provide water for billions of people are melting.
One minute Yamaha is arguing that the planet is not warming. Then the next he admits it's warming and tries to argue that it's good that glaciers are melting, that snow is bad and desertification is good. He can't make up his mind what he believes.
And as another note I'd never insult or treat another member the way I'm treating Yamaha. He is an exception because he doesn't grow cannabis or discuss gardening or strains or anything. He comes here to spam about climate change. He is trying to confuse people who's strong suit isn't science, make them think there is an actual debate going on. And that this debate is based on faith rather then science. The only debate going on now is between industry, the oil companies and rich corporations that want to continue exploiting coal and oil via government subsidies, and everyone else.
Really excellent post therevverend!
I've seen this guy posting on at least a half dozen other web sites. And on some actual science web sites he's saying the same stuff over and over. The other participants are obviously very science literate and they all complain that he doesn't really understand atmospheric physics. They give him links to university sites that explain physics fundamentals & I doubt that he pays any attention.
On another site he was bragging about posting here, revealing his screen name and talking about how he was making us all look like fools. And so he's under some delusion that he winning the argument.
Clearly, we have a person here who probably has some mental issues....and I'm not at all saying that to sound mean. But, I've never seen anything like this sort of behavior before.
You gotta wonder why these folks haven't noticed, if all the data sets are suspect, then why is everything melting?
Oh, that's right, the ice measurements are suspect too. LOL
