Do you have a mechanism by which umbrellas might cause rain? Do you have some theory as to how carrots might cause death? How increased CO2 levels might cause global warming is pretty well understood. CO2 absorbs IR energy. I don't have the knowledge to be able to say what is the right level of CO2. I can't prove that the earth is becoming warmer because of CO2. Many learned people believe they can. I can easily see how it is possible. Now, explain to me about umbrellas and carrots.
Do these 'learned people' know what the earth's temperature is supposed to be?
If so, will they please tell us.
Computer assisted guesswork is not 'research'.

In the present geo-political climate [not of our making], I don't think this can be quoted too often.
I wonder who will deny it - and how?
Churchill on Islam:
“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries. Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property - either as a child, a wife, or a concubine - must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the faith; all know how to die but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund. Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytising faith."

This time President Trump is right.
Anthropogenic Global Warming is an erroneous theory which has been elevated to a cult.
The global warming belief system supports an such an enormous, largely left-wing, burden of con-artists, subsidy seeking fraudsters, and mercenary academicians that few competant scientists dare to refute it for fear of real persecution.
How typical that these global warming shysters should use the suffering of the hurricane victims as propaganda in an attempt to bolster their fast unravelling cause.
For the sake of science and sanity, even in the wider world, POTUS must stick to his guns.

Thinking of statues, and Washington, is there one of Jesse? And if not, perhaps there ought to be? Waco might be a good place.

If you want something really dinky, Google 'Tessina'. The one I have will produce an adequate 8x10 if you fill the frame.

John K -
" Later had a Bronica, which was very noisy,"
Amen to that.
The mirror slap was atrocious.
With mine, when it went off, you could actually feel the recoil . . .

Rather long, but well worth reading.
It does rather wave a flag for us AGW deniers.
And as I never tire of saying - 'Truth is the daughter of time' - and the climate scam's reign is surely ticking to its close.
