Comment Remediate the biochemistry (Score 1) 257

Niacin, B6, C, Zinc.

Actually you should take a good hefty dose of all the vitamins and minerals from A-Z. Plus the important oils: EPA/DHA/ALA/GLA.

Maybe it won't work for you. But you might want to try to rule this out. It seems to have worked for a lot of people.

You think an above average brain can get by on the average amounts of these essential nutrients, which are precursors to the biochemical processses of thinkint and memory? Good luck with that.

"So, I'm just wondering how that related, for example, to global warming and eventual global cooling."

To possabilities here:

1) He may he a total hick and utterly clueless.

2) He may be asking "will the rate of warming have any effect before a cooling event"

and in the latter case may know more than 99% of the pro-AGW crowd.

This David Suzuki documentary on the CBC gave some very strong and compelling evidence that the 1000 year cycle of the reversal of the earths magnetic poles is the cause of glaciation an that were 200 years into this. Maximum "cold" will occur at the halfway point, so that's 300 years from now. But it won't come all at once, it'll gradually get there and the sun flipping it's poles this xmas and the 100-yr cold records broken this year is just a taste of that.

So it might not be wise to be too smug about this, you may just have been played by somebody that actually knew more than you.

Suzuki makes a pretty compelling case here and note that one piece CERN got gagged for was the critical element in this.

Comment They got my name wrong too (Score 1) 275

I have a US "Green Card". I had to fill out about 27 forms and the last three required me to print my name in block letters, one letter per square. Being British I have of course impeccable printing.

All the correspondence had my name spelled correctly but when I got the card - my name was spelled incorrectly.

"97%+ of geologists agreed the continents were stable. It was Settled Science. Hundreds of research papers supported it. Overwhelming consensus. And wrong. And, oddly (not really, if you think about it a moment), it was not a geologist but a meteorologist, Alfred Wegener, who ultimately showed all the mutually agreeing geologists they had it all wrong; the continents move." - Michael K. Oliver

Just because it's claimed to be settled science doesn't mean it's true. Never confuse truth for consensus.

"We were supposed to be halfway toward a frying world now..." .' Now Lovelock is walking back his rhetoric, admitting that he and other prominent global warming advocates were being alarmists. In a new interview with MSNBC he says: '"The problem is we don't know what the climate is doing. We thought we knew 20 years ago. That led to some alarmist books — mine included — because it looked clear-cut, but it hasn't happened," Lovelock said. "The climate is doing its usual tricks. There's nothing much really happening yet. We were supposed to be halfway toward a frying world now," he said. "The world has not warmed up very much since the millennium. Twelve years is a reasonable time it (the temperature) has stayed almost constant, whereas it should have been rising — carbon dioxide is rising, no question about that," he added.' Lovelock still believes the climate is changing, but at a much, much slower pace."
