Just got to love those who like to research things before giving into the media and contrived popular opinion. 13 or so years ago I was in a heated (no pun intended) discussion with coworkers about climate change. It seemed everyone had bought into man made global warming due to Al Gore’s film, and the media photos of the mother polar bear and cub floating away on a chip of the melting artic ice cap. After a few questions, i found out few people could even tell you that the majority of the earth’s atmosphere was nitrogen, and were unaware of which gases actually held heat, and did not know the amount of CO2. After informing them that water vapor was at least 25X and varies up to 75X the amount of CO2, and that virtually all periods of warming could be associated with solar activity and its effects on water vapor, I could tell some people began to wake up a bit. I then informed them that Time magazine in the late 70’s was preaching the next coming of the ice age. The magazine was concerned about global cooling and was blaming it on pollution. I simply asked, Do you think we are being played?

You gotta love researchers. This is a good site.
Own your puns...you know you meant it
