We got climate change wrong says IPCC - global warming estimates revised down; Global temperatures less sensitive to atmospheric carbon dioxide than previously thought
Says the witch that lives on the Internet, & aspires to rent in a cupboard.
wow, you have nothing but useless personal attacks do you?
Go away, the grown ups are having a discussion.

All we're arguing about is degree. The IPCC reports...
To justify your anxiety and believe you can do something about it, you need to be able to believe that it would not have got warmer anyway.
Therefore there are good reasons why people have attempted to minimise the cooling period that happened before the current warming period and the warming period that happened before the cooling period.
At the end of the day it is impossible for humans to know what is happening and if all you have are models that are curve fitting you have nothing at all.
There must surely be other things which deserve more anxiety and better use of limited resources than worrying about something that we are largely unable to know about anyway.
Should we waste the worlds resources in this kind of Keynsian madness or think about how to better look after what we have?
The argument that we should do something even if we are wrong makes no sense that i can understand.
Of course for governments addicted to a so called keynsian model it can make a lot of sense to spend more money into the economy for no good reason at all - particularly while the worlds economies are heading into such a severe crisis and remain in it. They need to justify shovel ready projects which only require more dollars to enable more purchases of stuff like rockets satellites and all of the huge technology spin offs that come from that spending where one persons benefit becomes anothers income.
Broadly, I agree. This is why we have climate scientists in the first place, to try to ascertain if we can do anything or not. Yes, I agree that we shouldn't be wasting resources on something that may turn out to be a bit of a fizzer, but we better be damn sure it is before we call it a waste. But at the moment we're spending more resources than ever before in the attempt to kill each other off for ideological reasons and in the war for ever dwindling resources, when we could be working together for a bright future for the human race on and off this planet (naive, idealistic, utopian rubbish, I know).
To allay your fears, I'm not anxious about the future. When I'm 90 in some 60 years, I want to be able to laugh at all this nonsense when there are people screaming about why we didn't do anything about it until then. All those people who are buying beachfront property, not realising that there is a possibility that their front porch might be a great fishing spot into the future.
If it doesn't turn out that way, I suppose I will be glad, but not as glad as I could be.

So you are not anxious about a future where there are people screaming.
I see.
I am still inclined to think the money could be more usefully spent on mental health.
Yep, totally, but I'm all for the reduction of the war machine to give us more resources to play with in the hopes of the betterment of mankind.
And, I won't be the one screaming, I'll be the bloke laughing.

My genuine nasty comments is especially directed for you & the other snake of this forum, who I also sincerely wish him shit...hopefully the ridicule that you both unreservedly demonstrated to me ....will eventually make both your lives utterly miserable...may there please be no dignity..ever.
I say this with absolute sincerity.
Ta ta.
Newjerk? can you try harder than dig up another person's blog. My first promo was with Billabong and my name in English is modified with a T, am Perth born but also lived in Sydney to make my $$ It's Absolutely Fabulous if it includes brilliant locations, & high calibre tenants..what more does one want? Understand the power of the two "P"" or be financially challenged Even better when there is family who are property mad and one is born in some entitlements.....Understand that beautiful women are the exhibitionists we crave attention, whilst hot blooded men are the voyeurs ... A stunning woman can command and takes pleasure in being noticed. Seems not too many understand what it means to hold and own props and get threatened by those who do. Banks are considered to be law abiding and & rather boring places yeah not true . A bank balance sheet will show capital is dwarfed by their liabilities this means when a portions of loans is falling its problems for the bank.
You will be totally unsuccessful in regards to me, I can't say for the other...
I know you have an issue with witchcraft, I'm not sure why you would use it though...
You're clearly trying to use spells and rituals to promote your hatred, which will more than likely bite you back instead of your intention.
To clarify...
To most witches a wish is a spell, a spell is a wish, a prayer is also a spell, they are no different, though one could say that a spell has more structure, but any wish can be called a spell. Normally, spells are ended with a phrase, something like 'so mote it be' which literally means 'so be it'. This is a sincere conviction, which you have clearly used in 'may there please be no dignity..ever.' Even Christians use it when they say 'Amen', which literally translates from hebrew to 'so be it'.
Now, I don't believe I can affect anything outside my own head using this sort of placebo, nor do I believe anyone else has that ability. But it is a power, a force, one that can change the person who uses it, sometimes for good, sometimes for bad.
If you really wish for no dignity, I could launch all sorts of attacks that I have held back from, because I don't believe there is any use for them. Especially since you and I will never meet, and this forum is not the place for such things. But if you want me to, I'm sure I can come up with some humdingers.

Each & every day day people make wishes, like wishing someone a happy birthday to wishing its sunny than raining.
It's not making spells.
When I was doing doing my sigs I was tempted to post my photo in a bikini lying near the pool /I'm really glad I didn't.
I really don't want a nutter like you to make a voodoo of me...or have other fruit loops chasing me.
I'm going to make a serious effort to ignore you.
Please do the same.

Well Sydney is getting a couple more 30+ days, in the middle of Spring, it's hard to be a climate change denier.
I just don't give a fuck.
It's hard to give a fuck when we are piling on immigrants like a motherfucker creating more and more stress, and you can't even get a basic middle class house for reasonable price. I'll just sit back and let the two seriously deranged blue and red teams fight amongst themselves.
stinkbug omosessuale Frank Castle is a liar and a criminal. He will often deliberately take people out of context and use straw man arguments. Frank finally and unintentionally gives it up and admits he got where he is, primarily via dumb luck! See here Property will be 50-70% off by 2016.

Yep, even birthday wishes, or wishing to change the weather is a spell (in fact I can find a great many sources about weather spells), it's magical thinking, the ability people use to convince themselves and each other that what they think can affect the world around them.
I don't believe they can, you have to believe it for it to work and then it only works within the mind, which is why, even if I did make an effigy of you, it wouldn't work unless I told you about it and you believed in it's power.
Like wearing the same underwear when your favourite footy team is playing because they won last time you were wearing them, this is a ritual, a superstition.
You sound even more crazy than me when you go on about not wanting people to make voodoo dolls of you, you actually believe in the supernatural. I bet you believe in guardian angels, tarot and astrology too. These are all very nice beliefs, very comforting, but they're just as silly as believing in bigfoot or the loch ness monster.
Oh and Voodoo is an African tradition dating back thousands of years, it doesn't usually make it into a wiccans belief structure.
Maybe you've been confused with the portrayal of spells as used in movies and TV. Do you understand the difference between real and make believe? You probably don't, seeing as you believe voodoo has power over you.
Also, you cannot force me to ignore you, you can do what you like, but you have no power over me, I don't owe you anything.

The climate probably won't be a problem for anyone who is currently over the age of 10 or so, we'll mostly be dead (unless they perfect longevity drugs) by the time anyone really notices, it's our children and grandchildren that will pay the price of our inaction.
