| Filling the atmosphere with Greenhouse gases associated with global warming could push the planet into a new ice age, scientists have warned. Ummm... Right. Global warming leads to nuclear winter. |

| #17 but make sure you deride skeptics with a "consensusy" shoutdown |

| #16 just like you've gotta rotate crops seasonally - you've gotta rotate your enviro-based societal control "science" seasonally, and adjust data and rhetoric to match |

| #15 I think it's a seasonal thing: they threaten us with further warming in summer and further cooling in winter. That way they can get more government pork grants on a year-round basis. |

| #13 I wish I was a homerun hitter with the prowess of the Babe. And, every time one of these shit-for-brains gurus expels more babble I would be allowed one free swing at their cranium with my new Louieville Slugger. |

| #12 Pass a law against the production of zooplankton, that should do it. Nows the time to start the storyline for overpopulation in the Spring and zombie armies in the Fall. |

| #11 I'm doing my best for the coming Era of Low Gravity by consuming anything in the fridge and drinking like a fish this holiday season |

| #10 The posited (by me) Era Of Low Gravity is gonna make you pray for global warming/cooling or both. Trust me. However... a few will propser during the coming era of Low Gravity and I know how. For details contact Mike N. Tell him Half has pointed the way. |

| #9 Casting a wider net I think. Global warming isn't scary enough for everyone. Try global cooling and see if it can terrorize people into behaving the way you want. |

| #8 Con men have generally not a good standing in society. Now how one may not only be successful at that vocation (loads of cash going one's way), but also be respected? Become a scientist! |

| #6 I've often defined experts as being anyone in a "journalist's" Rolodex. Is "scientist" (particularly when anonymized into a plural "scientists") pretty much the same definition? |

| #5 I am not a scientist but if high CO2 is present in both heating and cooling scenarios then I would assume its not a driver of either. Just sayin' |

| #3 Alas, you are merely a practicing physicist, if I recall correctly, g(r)omgoru dear, which field doesn't give much latitude for such thinking. |

| #2 I wish I was a scientist. |

| #1 TV AD > THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS "CLEAN COAL". Its interesting to review late 1960's + 1970's Guam news articles [back-and-white press] on these very same GW topics. |
