See the new theory on Global Warming? The post I did on the Tunguska comet/meteor that struck Siberia is central to this new hypothesis.

They found that the mean average temperature was actually decreasing until the early 20th century.

The biggest factor in global warming is actually water vapor and ice crystals. You disrupt these clouds in the mesosphere, you get massive temperature changes.

This Russian scientist said only a massive event, like the comet striking Sibera, could disrupt the water vapor in the atmosphere - and the average mean temperature has been increasing ever since then.

It's a pretty interesting theory...

The good news is that the dynamics of global warming are very easy to explain to people.

The bad news is that what you are discussing here is no joke, especially compared to real Republican plans for dealing with global warming-- if their activities are affecting the weather, then instead of looking at how to adjust their activities, their answer is to try and control the weather.

Phoenix~ your scientific view is fascinating.

Eli~ Here's what DEAD MARS, DYING EARTH had to say if you click on their link:

"So who says we don't have a sense of humor? This is our response to the announced "Celebrate Global Warming Day." While we think anyone who dismisses global warming as harmless is a certified diaperhead, even we can think of a few things to celebrate."

Sounds like they're just using humor as one of their tools to get peoples' attention.

Thanks for the links to your previous posts on the subject. Since I'm fairly new to your great site, I shall go back & thoroughly read them. After all, 'Knowledge Is Power'.
