The latest scientific assessment has almost doubled the predicted rate of warming if no changes are made.

I do not find the supposed scientific consensus among my colleagues. Curiously, it is a feature of man-made global warming that every fact confirms it: rising temperatures or decreasing temperatures. No matter what the weather, some model of global warming offers a watertight explanation.

I Didn't Express That Assessment
I will never find you trustworthy.
'Why?
Because I have the right to change my mind,
When I decide?
And I am not concrete in any decision I make,
To declare I've made one to keep?
And I have never did anything to prove I have integrity? '
That's my feeling about you exactly.
'Well...
Everyone has a right to express their own opinion.
Even though I may not agree to that assessment,
You have of me.'
Remember...
I didn't express that assessment.
You just made it easier not to argue with you.

Roger Revelle died of a heart attack three months after the Cosmos story was printed. Oh, how I wish he were still alive today. He might be able to stop this scientific silliness and end the global warming scam. He might well stand beside me as a global warming denier.

It is the greatest scam in history. I am amazed, appalled and highly offended by it. Global Warming; It is a scam. Some dastardly scientists with environmental and political motives manipulated long term scientific data to create an illusion of rapid global warming.

I Am In Total Agreement With Your Assessment
I am in total agreement with your assessment.
It is difficult to live with limited funds.
Budgeting to pay for shelter, food and utilities.
I am in total agreement with your assessment.
It is difficult to witness others live being deprived.
While their lives are being ignored.
And/or exploited in a hussle to keep them needy.
I am in total agreement with your assessment.
So many now are forced to descend from high horses.
And getting a taste for the first time,
How life is lived without good credit scores.
Or multiple opportunities coming to knock at their doors.
I am in total agreement with your assessment.
Very few are not so quick to pass judgement these days.
And knowing from my own experience...
How to remove myself from someone stunned.
Learning they too have become shunned and 'thumbed'
By the very same ones they supported,
At the expense of their own inhumanity.
I am in total agreement with your assessment.
But do not believe,
I am here empathetic and prepared to embrace your pain.
I've already been numbed by your reaction to mine.
I see nothing in that to aid my benefit with gain.
Like I said...
I am in total agreement with your assessment.
It is so vivid.
As if I'm still living it with too much acceptance.

Predictions For The 13th Day Of January,2012
My horoscope predicted
for the access of a heavyweight,
to support me lifelong,
on this day of January,2012.
Keeping the door open,
I was awaiting.
A masseuse rang to me
and called me to avail the offer of half-rate
on the eve of Tamil New Year.
I switched off my phone
and began to doze.
A huckster knocked on the door
and spoke humbug for selling cheaper goods.
At sunset, a stout buffalo made advances
towards the gate for water.
Predictions to me this day have become true!

Moreover, only a strong and united scientific opinion imposing the intrinsic value of scientific progress on society at large can elicit the support of scientific inquiry by the general public.

Doubled Up
I saw a mountain from higher above.
I held your hand and I was doubled up in love.
Big sky above me, a river inside me
And Im doubled up in love.
Youre watching your step but you fall as youre walking.
You take it in stride but still you fall as youre walking.
Big sky above me, a river inside me
And Im doubled up in love.
Feels good it feels like poetry
Dont ask me to explain it just
Feels good, like poetry,
Im doubled up again.
Look at the sky,
Lift off like an aeroplane,
Watch the ground come up to meet you.
Big sky above me, a river inside me
And Im doubled up in love.
Feels good, it feels like poetry,
Dont ask me to explain it just
Feels good, like poetry.
Im doubled up again.

Of Global Warming And Climate Change
Of Global warming and climate change we read of and hear
The changes in our natural environment gives us reason to fear
Of what does lay ahead for the children of today
We've brought climate change forward by centuries it does seem that way.
The polar ice caps are melting at an alarming rate
Our polluting of our natural environment not something to celebrate
To combat global warming we've left it a bit late
As a species we may well have sealed our own fate.
The burning of fossil fuels and carbon emissions have gone on for too long
On what causes climate change the experts have never been wrong
What we do to Nature in kind she repay
Global warming a threat to human existence many experts now say.
War and terrorism as a threat to humanity seems little at all
When compared to climate change it's impact seems small
Humans not known to learn from mistakes of the past
We must change our ways and we must change them fast.

We are cooling. We are not warming. The warming you see out there, the supposed warming, and I use my finger quotation marks here, is part of the cooling process.

A theory is only as good as its assumptions. If the premises are false, the theory has no real scientific value. The only scientific criterion for judging the validity of a scientific theory is a confrontation with the data of experience.

It seems incontrovertible to me that there is a global warming effect and that it is going to be serious, probably not in the amount of, say, six degrees warming, but it's likely that we'll get two to three degrees warming and that will be serious enough.

At any rate, girls are differently situated. Having no need of deep scientific knowledge, their education is confined more to the ordinary things of the world, the study of the fine arts, and of the manners and dispositions of people.

Lovingly Welcome
It has made me soft spoken
Just to widen base and retaken
You said it plain and admitted
What on earth joy to be felt and get elated!
You were in dire need
As I too was given little feed
Love wins love and joy to over joy
I have this moment now to enjoy
How good I felt when you revealed
'That love so far was secretly confined'
You wanted it to come out in open
The still box has to be reopened
Your address to me so far remained formal
My joy is doubled when you made it informal
I am what I am and suppose to be
You are a inspirational and love bird as free
It speaks of secret bond
That I was very much fond
Of everything that belonged you
You were my idol and that is very much true
I went around whole universe
With intense love and no curse
You belonged to me and may remain till last
As latest things have turned it very fast
May I take your hand into mine
And ask ' is this all to make me feel fine'
Shall I hold it for years to come?
Kiss on forehead and lovingly welcome

Obama sounded like Al Gore on global warming. The more the case for man-made warming falls apart, the more hysterical Gore gets about an imminent catastrophe. The more public support his stimulus bill loses, the more Obama embraces fear-mongering.
