    I would be happy if you would admit you were wrong about the "tin shed" remark. C'mon, it's not that hard, just say, "OK, I was wrong, The Heartland Institute in not housed in a tin shed. The rest of the nonsense is irrelevent to your false statement. First admit you were wrong, then we can move on to the rest of your mistaken perceptions and misinformation.

    I would be happy to do that if you will only agree to do the same
    Hell I'd be thrilled to admit exactly the shortcoming of my post concerning that shack

    its a simple concept

    you would like me to do something you yourself are incapable of doing

    Its downright funny to have you over a barrel like this
    you blatant refusal to do exactly what you expect of others is glaringly apparent

    your refusing to retract the statements you made that have been proven false
    I am not refusing the retract any statements on my part that can be shown to also be incorrect
    on the contrary I would be happy to however I am expecting nothing less from you as well

    will you or will you not retract the list of items you have been proven wrong on just as you expect me to retract my statement that was not accompanied by a picture of a tin shed

    :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

    I have no idea what you're talking about. And it isn't worth going through my posts to figure out what you're twisting out of all recognition this time....I'll just add "sexual orientation" to the list of gratuitous insults you've spewed out that have nothing at all to do with climate change. I'm surprised it took you so long to get around to that one, little man; it's usually the first one that rolls off the tongue of someone as insecure about his own manhood as you seem to be.

    On the contrary, eddy. I'm quoting hard, verifiable facts--and you know it.

    A classic example of the way the Heartland Institute operates was just brought up by Boston a few posts ago, and it's an example I mentioned myself a few pages ago. They printed a piece called 500 Scientists with Documented Doubts about Man-Made Global Warming Scares. Dozens of the scientists who were listed as contributors and co-authors said the list completely misrepresents their work and their views, and demanded that their names be removed.

    The Heartland Institute refused. That's the kind of lying weasels you're defending, Eddy.

    Go ahead: prove me wrong. Show me one piece of legitimate medical or scientific research they've conducted or funded. If they're what you claim they are, that should be dead simple--even for you.

    The topic to which you were responding was whether the "experts" had predicted thirty years ago that current sea levels should have risen several meters by now. (For those who want to catch up with the history of this sub thread, Hoyt said that he agreed 100% with a post by another person who made this statement about sea level prediction, so Hoyt is also taking ownership of the statement, not in the sense that he first made it, but that it represents his own thinking.)

    When challenged to document that the "experts" had made such a prediction then after a couple of tries this seems to be the most intelligent and on-topic statement Hoyt can come up with. Clearly Hoyt, you have no evidence to support the the claim that the experts had made this prediction, and to make or support this fraud is just another one of your ways to lie or try to mislead others on the topic of global warming.

    Oh, and yes Hoyt, before you wax indignant about my impugning of your character, you can take this post to mean that I am impugning your character, or to be more correct, I am pointing out that you are impugning your own character by your deceitful statements.

    I will talk about those items and show you where you are wrong on each item and in detail when you admit you again purposely posted information you knew to be false. You have me over no barrel, you have again proven you are not to be trusted and have no credibility. Now that I have proven that your statement was false and you are again a fraud, and a phoney, I don't need to go any farther. You have the burden to try and salvage something here.

    Uhhhh, I posted the reply about the 500 letter. Do your own homework.

    Then you know the truth. Shame on you, for defending them anyway. Apparently your ethics are no better than theirs.

    Let's see, let me take a page from your book. YOU DON'T KNOW ME WELL ENOUGH TO SAY THAT. I'M OUTRAGED THAT YOU WOULD IMPLY SUCH A THING, THAT'S DISHONEST OF YOU, WAH WAH WAH.

    I read their explanation, seemed reasonable to me. More importantly you are confusing me with someone who might give a **** about your opinion of me, or anything else for that matter.

    Uh, one other thing, I think all I ever claimed about them was that they were a think tank that embodied libertarian/conservative ideals. You haven't posted anything contrary to that.

    I know you employ dishonest debating tactics, and I know you're defending a think tank that disseminates dishonest, pseudo-scientific papers to further corporate agendas, under the guise of American ideals and sticking up for the common man.

    What else do I really need to know about you, eddy?

    That it makes me smile knowing the amount of angst it causes you that someone not only doesn't accept your vision for the world but could really care less what that vision is except as how it pollutes the political atmosphere with ******** and threatens to impose yet another layer of bureacracy and social agenda under the pretension of saving the planet from a non-existant crisis.

    Oh Lord.....spare me the pompous speeches:p

    It doesn't cause me any great angst and anxiety to know there are folks like you around. It's just mildly disgusting to deal with them; it gives me an urge to wash my hands and sanitize my keyboard and monitor when I'm done.:)

    Have you tried stretching saran wrap over the keyboard? It works very well to stop the rabid drivel and drool of old geezers like us.:p

    I keep a roll handy, Hoyt, because at my age I tend to drool on my keyboard when I see pictures of beautiful young women. Or beef brisket, Key lime pie and other goodies, for that matter....
