LocoAko Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Sad when people need to make things up to pose an argument. Yeah, just like that awful paper you posted and supposedly didn't read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeatherRusty Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Bethesda, If you don't agree with the basic premise of the paper, i.e. that the greenhouse effect is not real and that CO2 is a coolant, then why would you post it? Why would you associate your name with it on this forum? Your credibility has taken a deep hit. The only motivation I can thinks of is that you share the intent of the author. That being to further confuse the public understanding of climate change, the greenhouse effect and AGW. Every forum covering AGW has someone like you on it. They all do the same thing. They overwhelm the forum with garbage and disrupt any attempt at meaningful discussion. An interested, uninitiated passer by of this or other forums is greeted by your seemingly coherent, plausible sounding arguments and leaves thinking there must be this huge disagreement in the field of climate change. A true scientific discussion forum would not allow this to occur. You and all of us would be required to cite the peer-reviewed literature when make any claims. I have participated in them and the lack of freedom is difficult and stymies free and open discussion. You are taking undue advantage of your freedom to spew garbage and misinform the public . Shame on you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethesdaWX Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 Good idea. I think in the future I'll start lots of threads about articles I haven't even examined. That's a way to get healthy discussion on a messageboard. I'm trying to discern this from "science" that I've been taught and have learned. This paper does not abide by those standards.

mappy Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Oh that makes me "foolish"? You have high standards. You = foolish. My standards are actually quite low. Reading comprehension is a good trait that most men have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethesdaWX Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 how about my earlier suggestion: just stop making stupid threads. I posted it out mild interest. if you don't like it, DONT READ IT. Its that easy, and you wouldn't be posting on a WX board during your work hours.

BethesdaWX Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 You = foolish. My standards are actually quite low. Reading comprehension is a good trait that most men have. I scored in the 93rd percentile on the SAT regarding "reading" & "writing", so don't try and tell me if I have good reading comprehension or not.

H2O Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I posted the paper out of mild interest at 230AM in the morning. Skiers Idea that I post "skaptic blog articles" it botched, he should say I post "peer reviewed skeptical articles". He is notorious for bending the facts. I garuntee you if you read back in the CC forum, you'll see all the sources I use to support my argument are peer reviewed, not some scientists paper that was published april 10th that I had no idea about until 2 nights ago.

BethesdaWX Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 how can you know you don't like something unless you read it? you gave the thread a very generic title. irrAlAvAnt. also, just a word to the wise: I'd cool it if I were you. 1) Exactly, I found it mildly interesting, thus in the subtitle, through a scan. 2) Or what?

Kind of, and the fact that it looked like actual science was done. I just brushed through it and posted it. But It's funny how that amuses people here.

BethesdaWX Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 I thought you said you didn't read it at all? Now you've "brushed through it"? Reading it is not the same as giving it a skim, I copy pasted the procedure & conclusion & linked it. I didn't "read" it. If I had "ead" it, I would have seen the error.

BethesdaWX Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 so random equations = looking like actual science. again, you really need to just step back and cool it. At that time of night, Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
