Click on the chart above to see it in full size. The smallest scale is the one at the bottom (labeled (1)). Each scale above that one represents 10x the range of the scale below it. When you hear news reports about “detectable radiation that is above normally accepted limits” around the heavily damaged Fukushima [...]
…Dr. Phil Jones of the CRU made a series of (for warmists) startling admissions over the weekend. And, of course, Hitler has to weigh in. Hat tip to Gerard Van der Leun over at American Digest (one of the best blogs on the web). I know the Hitler clip is a bit overused, but this [...]
Words to ponder (emphasis mine): “There is one feature I notice that is generally missing in “cargo cult science.” . . . It’s a kind of scientific integrity, a principle of scientific thought that corresponds to a kind of utter honesty—a kind of leaning over backwards. For example, if you’re doing an experiment, you should [...]
I’ve avoided doing a lot of blogging on Climategate because so many other sites and bloggers are doing such a great job, while the Left gets increasingly shrill (“Pay no attention to the scientists behind the curtain!”). But a new critical point has been reached: the Warmist scientific elite are starting to turn on one [...]

Heh. Hat tip to American Digest. ..bruce..
I haven’t written much about ‘Climategate’ because so many others are doing such a great job (for example, see here, here, and here). But this video (hat tip to Ace of Spades) pretty much sums things up (and with a catchy tune, too!). ..bruce w..
The sad thing is, it’s true. An electric car is, in effect, a NIMBY-mobile. Unless you’ve got your own clean energy source (e.g., a large solar panel farm on your property — and here’s a shout-out to Jim Hamerly), you’re likely still impacting the environment — just at a distance. ..bruce w..
From Minnesotans for Global Warming via American Thinker, we have the following quote (Discover Magazine, 1989) from Warmist Stephen Schneider: On the one hand, as scientists we are ethically bound to the scientific method, in effect promising to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but — which means that we must include all [...]
Got up a bit earlier than usual this morning with hopes of dragging out my telescope and seeing the LCROSS lunar impact first-hand. I was encouraged because when I went to bed last night, the sky had mostly cleared after raining and then snowing all day (final accumulation about 1/2″ of snow on the ground). [...]
No, I’m not talking about “climate change”, though President Obama’s speech to the UN on the subject had some glaring and easily verifiable falsehoods. Instead, I’m talking about “shaken baby syndrome” (SBS), a well-known and well-established form of child death that results in about 200 murder/manslaughter convictions each year here in the United States. I [...]
