It was an unintended consequence of the top secret "suitcase nukes" held in the planes that caused the towers to collapse.

(roughly equivalent to 2KTn's of tnt, you can see that on the seismographs just before the buildings collapse)

These cool little bastards release their entire payload as electrical energy (causing steal supports to pretty much vapourise) and have very low residual radiation (low levels of alpha particles, no harmfull to anyone except those who come in direct contact with the debris)

It's funny how Americans think the American law system applies to the rest of the world.

It's also not so much of an issue in the UK where it would go to small claims court which costs next to nothing to defend, and is comparably expensive to bring.

One piece of paper denying responsibility and citing lack of evidence (IP != responsibility) is enough to get it thrown out and they loose their filing fees.

afaik.

Well, not exactly.
They measure it's immediate impact in a controlled environment.
Not the impact after a couple of weeks after people have had time to dtofr.

Case in point,
The youtube video linking to the petition finishes with several links to high quality videos explaining why prices are rising (falling supplies of fossil fuels) and why alternative energy sources are essential to protect our way of life.

The funny thing is, when there's a "complaint ad" like this, most people (even yo super dumb Americans) tend to either be ambivalent or investigate and decide or themselves.

So such advertisements seem more likely to encourage solar power than discourage it.

But you gotta admit, the ideal outcome is the court deciding they undercharged, slapping the government with another $21mill for Sprint plus legal expenses.

Which is quite possible when the government branch that brought the action finds just how many wiretaps they were actually doing (all of it's 54+ million customers)

I do hope you own a prius.

What it does is explain why the surface temperature is so hot.
regularily compressed gas to very high pressures passing over lava.

Not a thing to do with the optical properties of co2 or the sun.

Exactly.
But on venus the atmospheric gad is so dense it does reach those temperatures.

Thanks for proving my point.

Temperature = Constant * Pressure

so as the pressure increases so does the temperature.

It's really not that hard, but hey, I'm willing to listen to these calculations, do show, I've never seen.

Basic physics,
http://littleshop.physics.colo...

the pressure is important because it enables the Co2 to reach those temperatures.

If it was a lower pressure the hot gases would not be able to hold the same amount of energy.

lovin the reasoned argument backed up by facts.

I actually wavered for a minute thinking maybe I was wrong.

But after finally establishing a certain crowd think convection and conduction are part of the greenhouse effect I'm at least now more comfortable that I'm less wrong than them.

no, it's because the heat from the massive number of lava flows conducts and convects through the dense gas.

Absolutely nothing todo with the amount of sunlight absorbed or reemitted (the greenhouse effect)

Nope.
That's not "greenhouse effect".

Do you understand that and why thicker glass in your garden greenhouse would make the greenhouse colder. (repeatable experiment - actual science).

Do you have even the slightest idea about thermodynamics at all? or are you really just repeating the drivel you read on the internet and MSM.

Yes, same thing.
The atmosphere is incredibly dense and as such conducts and retains the heat fairly efficiency from those lava flows throughout the lower atmosphere.

That's nothing todo with the optical properties of CO2 and everything to do with the thermal conductivity properties of high pressure CO2 gas.

"Venus CO2 runaway" was some western political bullshit taught to kids in the 70s and 80s during the various oil strife and has no basis in real science.
