Climate-change scepticism must be 'treated', says enviro-sociologist

the fact you 'very much doubt' human activity is causing CC says rather more about your understanding of the subjects than the chemistry/physics involved
remember the ozone layer?
remember how as a child in the 70's I could run around all day in the sun and never even knew what SPF meant? Or never even heard the word melanoma til the mid 80s?
now an unhealthy exposure to the sun's radiation is counted in minutes per day
and what caused the change in that little lot?
the combined efforts of the aerosol spray and air con industries
i very much doubt that they were ever much bigger than say, the steel/coal/petrochemical/big agri industries
The sad fact of the issue at hand is that CC deniers are not, in the most part, driven by beliefs in evidence counter the the climate chance affirmers, it's a political/economic viewpoint. -the ones that are driven by scientific beliefs are just bad scientists :-)
Im not so bothered cos i'm pretty sure it's already too late, by some considerable margin. So we (as a species) are pretty much fucked no matter what we do. but it wont be my problem, as i'll be dead before it really kicks in, and as for the future generations? Well thats their problem! once they have finished paying down the debt from out economic miracles, i daresay climate armageddon will be a merciful release for them.

from the dysk
chocolate made from (a glass and a half of?) milk, sugar, suet, hooves, lips, miscellaneous squeezings, rat droppings, plaster, flies, tallow, bits of tree, hair, lint, spiders, and powdered cocoa husks (ingredients listed in order of quantity - or at least, what may well go in to making it, depending on what's in the vats at the time).
which was supposed to be a dig at crappy english chocolate, but having eaten merkin chocolate i'd say it's a better description.
According to the food standards of the great chocolate producing centres in Quirm and Borogravia, Ankh-Morpork chocolate is formally classed as "cheese" and only just escapes being labelled as "tile grout" on grounds of colour.
makes me chuckle every time i have chocolate, which is sadly not as often as i'd like

Re: In the UK the new iPad won't have 4G
<cough>Bollocks<cough>
no it aint!
never said nutthin about 100Mbit/S in the article, therefore it aint 4g
end your internal dialogue,
you are wrong
get over it
think of it as a learning experience,
you said something dumb and got pulled up on it.
think of it as i4G if that makes you feel better, kinda like 4G, but with the corners filed off

A word of advice; If you are going to venture out of the shallow end - read a fucking book every once in a while, and just occasionally try to make it someting other then the bible.

Re: The issue is a free lunch
turn modern medicine back 30 years???
wtf?
51,000,000 people with NO cover
to fund a healthcare "system" that so badly fails it's poulation you need to start looking at the gold coast of africa to find similar 'systems'!
why so many merkins choosing not to take advantage of 'the best healthcare in the world'... cos they cant afford it.
so why's that?
for 1: Merkin HMO's are the worlds MOST inefficient administrators (about 3 times that of medicare)
for 2 because of the way ER's are run - the cost is met by every other procedure carried out on the site. (see that 'free ride' you are so afraid of was there all along - eejit)
reason 1 - HMO's have to spend a lot of money to ensure their point of view is understood in washington. (cant let common sense kill the goose that laid the golden egg now can we)
reason 2 - ERs are overworked because the 50 million uninsured merkins have to wait until their trivial complaints become life threatening before they can seek treatment. this is VASTLY more expensive than early treatment - or prevention, and, incidentally, better for the patient. and why is this - because of mean spirited tightfisted asshats like YOU terrified that someone else might be getting a free ride on your dime.
Given that this batshit crazy fundamentalist 'ideological' thread this comes from is christianity, which has at it's very core the value of (christian) charity - a fact that seems to have escaped ALL american rightwing thought for half a century, tends to make us in the civilised world take your peoples self righteous rantings\mumblings with a significant pinch of salt.
the ONLY health 'tourists' i have ever met have been merkins who found that with diabetes or having survived cancer are un able to get ANY cover under 'the best system in the world' so need to resort to gaming the health services offered by the civilised nations of the world instead.
The us has the 3rd highest health cost as a percantage of GDP in the world, and almost 1 in 5 of the people ARENT EVEN COVERED! and you think this is good???
because if thats the case and seeing as the tide is out right now, i have some great land i'd like to sell you, take it from me it's the best building land in the world!
