don't forget those black helicopters coming over the hill.

Well Rick, your usually failed attempt to be cute - and dodge the issue. Are you implying non of those "fears" are real?

BTW, speaking of Black Helicopters, are you up to date on recent NSA activities?

Sounding a bit like Jay Carney and his theatrics at his press briefings making fun of serious questions. In today's reality those black helicopters and more seem very believable. Infinitely more so than most of what you here from today's media and government spokesman.

Friends of Science was created by the Canadian Society of Petroleum Geologists....Yea sure they have no financial stake in this argument at all lol...EC, citing this group and thier findings in contrast to what NASA puts out is like having a Phillip Morris rep give you info that contradicts what the rest of the medical community thinks about smoking.

Thank you, Rambler. That is exactly what I was biting my tongue on last night.

Rambler,

Why don't you respond to their points rather than dismissing them outright? They have laid out their facts and statistics. Why don't you show where they are wrong? Probably because you can't.

A good source for reliable science information on global climate change is the AAAS, the American Academy for the Advancement of Science. They recently established a site for information on climate change and it can be found here http://whatweknow.aaas.org.

Another good source is the NAS, National Academy of Sciences with a recent publication with clear answers to questions like "If the world is warming, why are some winters and summers still very cold?" You can find the answer in their booklet by following the link below.
