At least, according to the Guardian it is. 97% of "climate science" papers agree global warming is man-made. That settles it:

The picture is a guy collecting ice from 6,500m in Bolivia. I remember when I went there, I thought I could see anthropogenic global warming, because a ski...

The 19-year-old woman who survived after 17 days under the rubble of a collapsed Bangladeshi garment factory says she won't work in the rag trade any more:

In a way, it would be more newsworthy if she said she loves her job, and is determined to get back to it as quickly as possible....

Why it's not always worth helping Google correct their bike map of the USA

I corrected the bike map of Adelanto - Victorville, CA in November 2012. I wrote
"El Mirage Rd rapidly becomes a dirt (i.e. sand) road which is very difficult to bicycle".
But Google's 'correction' just continues along El Mirage Rd.. I also added
"Palmdale Rd (CA 18 - CA 138) is definitely not it - it is far too dangerous for bicycles"
but that I had not found an alternative. So the corre...

Scientists say they didn't mention the Higgs particle, because its existence was 'obvious'

"Englert and Brout did not mention it all, no doubt thinking it too obvious, and although we did mention it we omitted to add the obvious comment that the theory would imply a non-zero mass."

Me too - I never did say when I figured out the existence of a boson which gives "non-zero mass" to the oth...

"Calling out" - Obama supporters use Maoist techniques to stifle debate
|
|
|
26 apr 13 |
"Calling out" is a term used among left-wingers in America. It means "I disagree with you but I can't explain why, so I'm going to try to make you feel ashamed of your views".
Up 'til now, it's mostly been used to 'name and shame' people who don't agree with the dominant paradigm on race, sex, etc.. Now some of Obama's red guards are going to try to use it to silence those who think the evidence f...

Marcott et. al. at Oregon State University published a paper in the once-prestigious journal Science containing a graph of global temperature for the last 11,000 years. It showed an unprecedented upturn in the last century. Steve McIntyre examined the data, and found that this 100 years of data is so unreliable as to be completely useless. The authors admitted it - but without giving credit to McIn...
