That is my perogative. Yes I'm lazy, (just busy actually)and mostly just write quick commentary notes. Yes this is not very "professional" because it is not professional, that is I'm not being paid to do this. It is really just sort of a hobby.<br /><br />You can do the same if you like, anyone can. If you don't like it you can just turn it off and go elsewhere.<br /><br />I know geology and the history of the Earth better than anything. You can dismiss this, attack me personally, try and discredit me all you want. I don't doubt you are smart, I just think you're misguided, have been misled, and are just flat wrong about global warming, climate change, human nature, economics, human history.....and probably a lot of other things. But this is still somewhat of a free country, and you're free to make stupid decisions. Join with me and others and don't let our government force these stupid ideas on me, and you, and everyone else.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12792460740514151650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5941560477618551520.post-60952365325728765732012-03-12T11:09:52.645-05:002012-03-12T11:09:52.645-05:00Pete, having read your blog, I'm willing to be...Pete, having read your blog, I'm willing to bet that I know as much about AGW as you do. So I'm not too terribly convinced that I'm the one who is "ignorant" here---or more specifically, I think you have a trove of second-hand blog postings reposted on your blog. Not the best foundation to judge something like AGW. <br /><br />And Crichton was a cool dude, but he was also a pulp novelist.

If if rattles a few cages and exposes a few raw nerves and guilty consciences, all the better.<br /><br />Read the book "State of Fear" and judge for yourself if much of it rings true about current events. Cloning dinosaurs? Who knows? Who would have guessed at many of the marvels we take for granted today? Crichton's point is that it is bad policy to react out of irrational fear. When someone tries to scare you it means they're trying to manipulate and bully you, and that is what our government is doing with the global warming scare.<br /><br />Crichton saw this, I see it, and more and more people are realizing this every day.<br /><br />It is an old means of governmental control: <br /><br /><br /> “The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace<br /> alarmed–and hence clamorous to be led to safety–by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.” — H.

And because he wrote a book about cloning dinosaurs, I believe we can clone dinosaurs. Now a geneticist might disagree with you, but they are just alarmists and should be put in prison because Pete disagrees with them. Crichton was a "high-level MD" so clearly he knows how to clone dinosaurs. So I will also believe whatever he says about global warming. If he'd written a book about the likelihood of AGW, then he'd be on this blog with some propagandist rhetoric about how he should be arrested and tried for fraud. But he didn't, so Pete likes him.<br /><br />Been chased by a T-Rex lately, Pete?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5941560477618551520.post-89115096112417802322012-03-11T16:17:36.654-05:002012-03-11T16:17:36.654-05:00These two scientists are simply lone, small voices...These two scientists are simply lone, small voices in the wilderness, Pete.
