Did you get that memo? lol You guys are right. We peaked in what, 1945? We can't possibly lead the world into the future. Electric cars? Let China build them. Solar power and the ability to unplug from the grid? (aka flipping off your util company) Let the Europeans do that. It's...

Hey everyone needs to have a hobby. I'm glad you approve. :)

Thanks LOS! I needed that. Tough day today and I looked to this thread for someone making funny. Although is good too. Austrains and Keynsians agreeing on anything is pretty funny. And since the average economist from the Austrian School can't even... er never mind. :)

But why should the question be about whether the earth survives? Isn't people surviving a more important question? Er, a little clarification is probably wise here. I'm not suggesting anything like a mass extinction is in the works. But as sea levels rise, poorer people that happen to live in...

If it's not a problem, then at what point does it become a problem? Can the level rise to 1000ppm and not be a problem? 10000000ppm and not be a problem? At some point I think it will be a problem. Do we at least agree on that?

Slime taken to a whole new level. Slider Slime! :)

Yeah if only it would stay at 400ppm and not keep rising. The problem of course is the trend line. It's rising very quickly.

Great link. Thanks Cheri!

No, not Reagan, the "Reagan Revolution". Google it if necessary. If you're interested, pay particular attention to The Laffler Curve and Reaganomics (voodoo economics). The (laughable now), idea was that the less money the government takes in through taxes, the more money the government has...

The echo chamber speaks! But about that 400ppm CO2 in the atmosphere problem? Could it be from the humane society? Cat farts? Ya know, with all these cat videos on the internet... They have bodily functions too. Just saying. :)

The only real difference being that millions of people will lose their lives and America will almost definitely lose it's place as the big dude on the block. I've heard it put this way: if a giant chuck of space rock was hurtling towards us and we had the ability to deflect it, should we? Or...

Anybody have a ready answer for 400ppm CO2? Frogs belching a little more often these days due to the super hot Buffalo Wings they've been known to scarf down? I try to keep an open mind.

Thanks for playing. :) So on a lark, I followed your link and spent maybe 2 seconds reading the page when there it was... That thing that's been bothering me... That unanswered question... Learning To Think Like A Progressive | Real Science US choice is what that is. :)

It was the "Reagan Revolution" that was the colossal failure. The only thing the American people did wrong was believe you. Well I guess that is pretty dumb. But let's not forget that there were some really good salesmen doing the selling and the messages sounded awfully good.

What do you mean back to the subject of the OP?!?! :) Overlapping is the biggest category and it has no meaning. Weight is included in medical and it's probably the biggest problem. I briefly scanned the article - it's townhall.com so I really can't be bothered reading it but looking at the...

Pink slime is even cheaper and a whole lot faster since you can eat while you're driving. If you like the chicken slime, McDonalds chicken nuggets are selling for just $5.00 for a 20 pack. If on the other hand your palate prefers beef slime, you can buy 5 double cheeseburgers for $5.00.

Ha! Posted in the wrong thread. lol

Funny thing about that cause and effect thing. The 99-percenters are now running around like chickens with their heads cut off trying to make ends meet and both because it's all they have time for and because it's what they can afford they eat junk/fast food and of course they're getting fat.

When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. :) Yes some people are different than you. Hate them. Tolerate them. Your call. Wasn't it Jesus Christ who said that we should blame the poor for their poverty and refuse to help them, because, hey, it lowers our tax bills by an...

You're right of course. Nixon declared the war, but it was the Reagans who executed it with abandon. You gotta love devotion to, er, um, a bad idea. But at least they put their hearts into it. :)
