Global Warming

[rkwright]

ugh seriously... are all the threads on phatmass dead???? I'm sitting here in class and no one is posting in the other areas, I figured for sure the lame board would be active...

and I never come down here!

maybe I scared everyone off...

I guess I need to pay attention to my prof.

from what I've heard, global warming is climate change. even when it's cooling.

No, no, no. Environmentalists have changed the Global cooling/global warming/climate change theory more times than I care to think about. The more convoluted it becomes, the more difficult it is to prove the veracity of said theory. Which is why they throw more experts and more wrinkles at you every day, so you just stop THINKING.

That's the real lesson from all this: thinking is the new politically incorrect thing to do.
