Yesterday, we consistently got 42. How's that?

OK - time for a blast from the Scubaboard past, folks:

LOL - that's OK. It was an older post, rescusitated only because it's relevant. Now - ask me how I feel about the Air2. :11:

OK - someone not only edited BigJetDriver's comments, but they also edited the comments as I quoted them back in MY post. I guess his original vitriole was beyond the pale?

I had no idea you thought all of Scubaboard members were vegetarian. I'm sure not! I proudly eat mammals, of many sizes, shapes and descriptions. Just because a whale lives in the water doesn't preclude it in my books.

Actually, the moratorium is non-binding. Norway doesn't respect it either, nor does Iceland. Whether you agree with the moratorium or not, Japan kills 500 whales per year for 'scientific purposes.' What do you prefer they do with the meat?

See - stop right there. This isn't just "one admittedly flawed model." This is THE model. This is the basis of the Kyoto protocol, the IPCC studies, and the UN work on climate change in general. It's the Stanley Cup or the Superbowl of climate change models... ... and it wasn't even...

Let me help you out here - this is an article which appeared in today's Toronto Sun: Flawed science behind the Kyoto Accord For years, many people believed the Earth was getting warmer and that modern man and his industries were to blame. But how would those people react if they...

So, if it was cooler from 1300 to 1900, you, by default, admit that you remember when it was warmer BEFORE 1300? :eyebrow:

And when you read the work of Bjorn Lomborg or Ross McKitrick, get back to me...

Thanks guys. That's my website. If you've got any other suggestions for useful tips, feel free to send them in.

"Accepting responsibility for the solution" means having to accept that there is a problem in the first place, does it not? It was warmer during medieval times on this earth than it is now. Explain?

There have been a number of studies which show that curbside recycling is actually MORE harmful for the environment than sorting everything out at the landfill or sorting station. Most urban communities in Canada, at least, have a 'blue box' recycling program to collect recyclables. Great...

A few comments... first off - the only spring you're going to find from McMaster Carr is 11". That's all they offer unless you want to buy a 20" spring. Now, the good news is that an 11" spring fits the vast majority of people out there. Secondly - there is no substitute for stainless...

And why do you think that is? Do you not think its because someone out there saw the potential to make money off of developing a better water infrastructure system? People buy prosperity, and then they 'buy their environment.' There's a reason why people have cleaner lakes and rivers than...

LOL - tell you what Rick - we'll work with you at getting the Japanese to reduce the duties on American Beef as soon as you American's even allow Canadian beef into your country.

And what's wrong with eating whale meat? At least they're eating the meat, and not harvesting it for the ambergris. Or lopping off the dorsal fin and serving it in soup. If people want to eat a non-threatened species, go nuts.

There are very few topics I am more passionate about than debunking the myth that Greenpeace is a credible activist group. I'm amazed I've missed this thread until now. In fact - I feel so strongly about this that I've started my own consulting group dedicated to "Defending Good Science"...

As someone who grew up in the Tobermory area... I respectfully disagree. Kingston definitely kicks butt, for a whole host of reasons. Check it out sometime.
