So the sea levels have stopped rising.
“Sorry. Thought we were all going to die, but I forgot to carry the one. I don’t know what’s happening.”
So the Science! is settled about global warming, but the facts are still in flux. Don’t know if the sea levels are rising, don’t know if it was actually hotter in the medieval period than it is today, and not even quite sure if temperatures are warming right now.
Now, before you’re all like, “Science! is stupid! I don’t know why we ever use Science! for anything!”, just know this is normal Science! practice. Data and theories are always having to be reexamined and are always disputed. It’s just this usually happens in the background about things we don’t care about like gluons and whatnot. The difference here is that scientists are all wanting us to overthrow our economy based on their shaky understanding of things. The proper response to that is to grab the scientist’s glasses, throw them on the ground, stomp on them, and shout, “Know your place, Poindexter!”
I don’t know if we’ll ever sort out enough of the Science! from the politics to ever do anything about global warming, though. Liberals have clung to Science! like those facehuggers from Aliens, as they think it’s yet another way to defeat political opponents without having to actually discuss their own sucky ideology. It’s kinda like calling everyone “Racist!” who disagrees with them, except it’s “Anti-Science!” Come November, the Science! will be settled on how effective that is.
Told ya I’d stop the sea from rising. Count that one campaign promise kept.

the first time I read about gluons I thought it was a joke… but its not… there real… I cant believe thats what they named them.
Of course sea level isn’t rising. If it was then it would just run off the edge. That would cause erosion and round off the corners of the earth
This is indeed the way it is supposed to be done. Report, find out – or be told about – a disqualifying error, “pull” report and do ore research.

Oh, and the UK Telegraph has one heck of a scare story today aout an increase in atmospheric methane, blaming warming/icemelt/etc. But they make the mistake of actually quoting the scientists, who note
1. it is only a two-year apparent increase, decades early to know if it is a trend
2. have no idea what is causing it
3. need to do a LOT more research before any conclusion
Personally, I blame it on the decaying of all those pigs killed in Egypt because of “swine flu” and the garbage no longer eaten by said pigs.
It is becoming somewhat problematic. Currently, more people believe that Elvis is alive than are believing in Gerbil Worming. I haven’t yet compared number on believing in Madonna’s Virginity.
Global warming may be bulls**t but Manbearpig is real, I tell you REAL!!!…Algore, still shoveling my driveway, Washington DC.
Ron Paul destroyed the neocons at CPAC!!!
muhahahahah
Maybe Barry can do something about the rising levels in my sump pit all the snow melt last weekend.
The same page the link goes to has a story that old estimates of up to 42 cm were adjusted up to 40 – 150 cm by the year 2100. and possibly has to go up higher yet.
So science! confidently! predicts! that the sea level rise that may or may not be going on may increase or not … and thats for sure! … by 2100 AD
Carry the one? That’s a SarahKism. She is the Iceberg to IMAO’s Titanic. She is the reason you are barely hanging on to 100. Don’t be stupid, don’t say that again…
Obama was right: We can point to this time in history and say “This is the moment when the waters stopped rising…”. Hopefully sometime in the future we can say, “This is the moment when Obama stopped getting his head stuck in a bucket…”
