What Geologists Don’t Want You To Know…. (because it’s so stupid)

Share Button

Weeeeeeeee. Isn’t this fun! …And completely absurd! As a former Geology student, I must say I was caught completely absolutely off guard when I stumbled upon someone trying to argue the case for the Expanding Earth theory on a blog this last weekend. I had never even heard of this theory, and you know I […]

Meme Alert – Happy For The Scott Brown Victory = Racist.

Share Button

A number of bloggers are freaking out over something Alvin Felzenberg wrote over at National Review Online: Scott Brown’s victory in Massachusetts is more than just a defeat for President Obama and the priorities his administration has established during his first year in office. It is an outright rejection of the “identity” politics he and […]

Moutains Out Of Molehills…. Or Himalayans – The IPCC Strikes Out

Share Button

One of the stated policies of the IPCC is to only use peer reviewed materials in their AR publications. Setting aside questions of peer review accuracy that have been raised due to Climategate, there are instances where they don’t stick to the stated goal. There was one instance where they used a no-peer reviewed graph […]

Glenn Greenwald – Dishonest Blogger??? Patterico – Criticism Is Lacking Something… Perspective. UPDATE X 3

Share Button

On the one hand, from what I’ve read on his blog, though I don’t think I’ve ever used him as a source for anything, Greenwald seems knowledgeable enough on the stuff that I’ve read. On the other hand, Patterico says he uses cheap party trick to make conservative bloggers seem disreputable, cherry picking, as it […]

Quote Of The Week: “It isn’t helpful to anybody to exaggerate the situation. It’s scary enough as it is.”

Share Button

Said by Vicki Pope, top Met Office climate hypocrite scientist kvetching about why no one believes in Global Warming anymore. Too many people exaggerate, she says. Problem is, her name is attached to articles with titles like this: Met Office warn of ‘catastrophic’ rise in temperature And she is prone to leaning on the “worse […]

Elvis Costello Wins Nobel Peace Prize For Writing The Song “What’s So Funny ‘Bout Peace, Love, And Understanding”!

Share Button

Hey, if we apply the same standards used to justify the Obama award, Costello was a visionary –  they might as well! While trying to find out exactly why Obama deserves this recognition, I came across Andrew Sullivan’s joyous, nonsensical rational to justify Obama receipt of the Nobel Peace Prize: If any person has done […]

More On Palin – Conservatives Play The Victim Card…. For Ratings.

Share Button

On many conservative blogs, you’ll read something like this: The amount of vitriol and harassment Sarah Palin has endured following November as a losing prez or VP candidate is no doubt unprecedented in American history.

The Obama Administration – A Return To Science Based Policy.

Share Button

Err…. not so much. So the EPA is prepared to issue the latest Endamgerment Report. It’s supposed to be based on the latest scientific research. Well, not if it interferes with an ideology. An EPA scientist tried to have the agency include some of the latest peer reviewed science that points away from carbon dioxide […]
