The Brutality of Reason
If you are the emotional liberal type, this mindspace will make you uncomfortable. If you think my logic or facts are faulty, lets discuss it. When your findings disagree with my findings, that is dialogue. But using rhetoric to disagree with science is demogoguery. No demogoguery! I usually refrain from insults, but occasionally, ignorance and liberal hypocrisy bring out the worst in me.
Military Jumper, Diver, Motorcycle Rider, Air Traffic Control and Demolitions Man. I build furniture and cabinets and can frame, roof, wire, plumb and finish a house. Can weld steel, drive heavy equipment, build pole barns and mortared rock walls. Have written one bad novel and one brilliant thesis. And I play the guitar.

The thing that drives me batty is:
If the data were to show global warming, empirical models would be constructed that show increased combustion products cause temperatures to rise.
Were the data to show global cooling, empirical models would be constructed that show increased combustion products cause greater reflection of incident sunlight and cause temperatures to fall.
Its just post-hoc reasoning about combustion products being used to mask the underlying tautology, e.g. whether the premise is temperatures are rising or cooling, the conclusion will be to reduce combustion products.
Whatever it is, its not science.
I want to be on a planet with smarter primates. This joint is moving backwards.
