OK, let us ALL take a Breath here.... I, for one, have NO Problem with "Global Warming"... I live in Alaska, on the Coast, VERY Near, (1/2 Mile) Glacier Bay National Park in the USA.... I can see Global Warming effects, out my window. Glaciers ARE receding, and have been for the passed 200 years, at least. NOW if you will reread my Post, what I Stated IS, "Man Made Global Warming" is not substantiated in Science, and is on the Scientific par with Cold Fusion, as published by the U of Utah team. Maybe there are some interesting things that point toward Both Issues, HOWEVER, there isn't ANY Consensus, and NEVER has been, or even Significant Peer Reviewed Evidence, that demonstrates Conclusive Documentation of either Hypothesis. Newton's Laws of ThermoDynamics have been around for a LONG Time, and have yet to be Demonstrated Wrong, and really haven't even been dented, or bent even slightly. Many have tried, and ALL have Failed....

Ill keep the three tit'd woman to the random pictures thread if you keep the BS climate thread

agreed

and while your pondering that check out Naomi Oreske's flick
"the american denial of climate change"
might enlighten you as to the facts of consensus
97% is about the largest consensus ever

as the Rocky and Bullwinkle show would say

while entitled to your own opinion
you are not entitled to your own facts

or

you aint going to learn
what you don't want to know

Do yourself a favour and every time you see something marvelous that involves MAGNETS, skip the page, delete the email or don't bother reading it because it is a SCAM.
Google magnet, and find one single solitary gadget sold that actually works. There is none. The only thing magnets are good for is...attract metal, like your fridge magnet.
That's it. That is all they are good for and certainly not generating electricity for free, nor cure rheumatism, nor kill algae in diesel, nor potentiate fuel molecules to burn hotter, they do not enlarge your penis, don't make your hair grow, don't keep bad luck away, don't fix your eyesight, don't stop tinea, and don't help to select the winning number in the casino.

As for anthropologic climate change, that one is a RELIGION and all is required is to believe.
Just like those who believe images weep and queue up to touch it, THose who believe there are werewolf, the lock ness monster, the man on the moon, the bogy man and the tooth fairy. No point rationalise about Man Made Global warming.

I only wish I see the day that the ******** artist like Al Gore have their day in court and are convicted of mass fraud and put in gaol

well - i got a torch here with nothing but a samll dynamo and some batteries (rechargeable) in it... and a handle...
i turn the handle a couple of minutes and the torch has enough electricity in its now charged batteries for iluminating my way home in a pitch-dark night...

some might call that 'electricity for free'...
but i know what you mean because turning the handle could be rather exhausting and tiresome...

Actually, they might help select the winning number in a casino, maybe the craps table or roulette wheel.

That drum oughta be about worn out by now. Or at least ready for a new stick....

Every time I turn around, someone is equating something they don't like or believe with religion. It gets [bleep]ing old, and for some reason it mostly seems to come from what we in this country would consider the political and/or cultural right: climate change is a religion; environmentalism is a religion; gun control is a religion; evolution is a religion; liberalism is a religion. Even atheism--which by definition is a lack of religion--is a religion to people who don't like it.

Time to find a new label, guys. That one's been reused so many times it doesn't stick very well any more.

Not quite true Marco1.
A magnet moving near a conductor generates electricity. That is probably the cause of all these fairy tales.

And a heavy magnet can indeed enlarge your penis. All you need is a piece of rope.

I think the part that confuses people is the amount of energy that goes into making a permanent magnet vs the amount it expends at say hangin on a fridge for a few years

seems to really bring up some wild ideas

thing is your naturally not going to be getting more out of it than you put in

but some folks sure seem hell bent on trying

[CDK]

No Boston, hanging on the fridge takes no energy at all.....
