    Post it again? No. You have yet to understand it, so I have no reason to believe that you'd understand it if I stated it again.

    You're just the kind of person who's been making these arguments all these years, and here we are. At least you'll have to reap what you've sown.

    My argument is somewhat different. It is equivalent to observing that a chicken cannot be the cause of the egg it hatched from because the egg existed before the chicken that hatched from it. But nevertheless I enjoyed your clever rejoinder.

    Just the sort of answer I'd expect from you.

    hey... all you have to do is show us some science indicating man made co2 is causing warming.
    you guys just acted like you have a massive consensus and thousands of papers.

    Lets see you post a link to some.

    I have posted to dozens of papers showing that the sun and tides have a big influence.
    where are your papers? you lying drones.

    There is no scientific evidence that human activity is causing the planet to warm, according to Greenpeace co-founder Patrick Moore, who testified in front of a Senate committee on Tuesday.

    Moore argued that the current argument that the burning of fossil fuels is driving global warming over the past century lacks scientific evidence. He added that the Earth is in an unusually cold period and some warming would be a good thing.

    “There is no scientific proof that human emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) are the dominant cause of the minor warming of the Earth’s atmosphere over the past 100 years,” according to Moore’s prepared testimony. “Today, we live in an unusually cold period in the history of life on earth and there is no reason to believe that a warmer climate would be anything but beneficial for humans and the majority of other species.”

    “It is important to recognize, in the face of dire predictions about a [two degrees Celsius] rise in global average temperature, that humans are a tropical species,” Moore said. “We evolved at the equator in a climate where freezing weather did not exist. The only reasons we can survive these cold climates are fire, clothing, and housing.”

    “It could be said that frost and ice are the enemies of life, except for those relatively few species that have evolved to adapt to freezing temperatures during this Pleistocene Ice Age,” he added. “It is ‘extremely likely’ that a warmer temperature than today’s would be far better than a cooler one.”

    That's not the problem piezoe. Problem is, it's caused the next.

    Of course the positive feedback loop aspect was mentioned to jem a long long time ago.
