    The more I think about this the more I find real similarities between "global warming" fanatics and Nazis.
    Nazism came from a small group of fanatics who dominated a largely apathetic majority.
    It spread around the world and took hold onto many other countries officially and unofficially with the promise of unity and a brighter future based on fallacy lies and deception. The main thinking was "we know what's best for you".
    It had some good things and many bad ones.
    It had to be obeyed at all costs and disobedience was unthinkable and unheard off.
    It was indoctrinated in children at school who were thought how to save the world and how to do it all united.
    It's main objective was to concentrate power in one group irrespective of nations and cultures.
    Once power was centralised it stole and plundered at will.

    I am convinced that the environmentalism religion is the Nazism of the 21 century

    George Reisman does not think there was much difference between Nazi and Comunism though.

    Hi Guillermo, Just popped by to wish you all well and not to worry too much about the climate change lobby, hopefully, nothing will be done, as there will be no money or incentive, as other matters will keep the alarmists distracted and the climate will continue to do its thing unhindered by idiots, but a bit less pollution would be nice as the smell of sulphurous burnt fuel (rotten egg gas) is not pleasant... I like this presentation "Professor Bob Carter on YouTube: Science & social context of climate change" at your link... Thanks:D:D:D

    Pop by here http://www.boatdesign.net/forums/op...d-cruising-yachties-26558-122.html#post311863 to get a take on really rabid views - well those posting seem to be aligned in the same direction... When will western economic systems collapse???

    Hi, Masa!
    I've noticed only now that you've begun the construction of your boat on the 23th of April 09. My 58th birthday! Nice day!

    Hopefully western economy will not collapse if we are wise enough to make it go the way of recognizing the value of real productive work and a prudent use of planet's resources. Bubble/speculative/frantic economics is what should collapse for ever.

    Cheers.

    What a honey... and a voice to match...

    I cannot show much optimism in the economics situation... The world is firmly in the control of the wallstreet-money-managers who are bent on their own destiny and a total disregard for anyone else in the world.... Only solution at this stage is lethal extermination, as the rot of corruption is firmly entrenched...

    I will be thinking of you next April, as launch will be about then, and for an Oram 44C just a bit North of me...

    First fall of snow in China today,earliest for a decade. An American bank files for bankruptcy, and don't Forget 22 Dec 2012 is the fast approaching day that Nostradamus says is Armageddon day.

    Something is going to happen

    There have been more than 100 bank collapses in USA this year, but CIT is the biggest... will it induce more "dominoes" to fall, or, will climate change freeze all the action in NY? Nostradamus claimed knowledge but no one has successfully interpreted his quatrains...
