  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Awesome. Proof that denialist Roy Spencer doesn't understand the difference between weather and climate... which is actually quite bizarre. :doh:

Where there are many words, transgression is unavoidable

If you are flamed, do not respond in-kind. Alert staff to the situation by utilizing the report button. Do not report another member out of spite.​

Sometimes even an SUV is insufficient to overcome global warming.

As is the lack of understanding by deniers that local =/= global.

Australia's 2014 Heat Wave Picks Up Where 2013 Left Off | Climate Central
The Australian Bureau of Meteorology released a special statement to chronicle the extent of the heat wave and its movement. While noting that it didn’t affect as wide an area as the January 2013 heat wave, the statement said the heat wave has been, “highly significant with substantial areas having their hottest day on record.” The heat wave comes on the heels of Australia’s hottest year on record during which a slew of records were shattered, including the country's hottest summer.​

Also summer > a week in early January.

Conservatives live in a more diverse world it seems. :thumbsup:

Truly! A diverse world where

1. Knowledge about the technical details of which one is speaking is NOT NECESSARY (called "talking out of one's a..")

2. One where the laws of physics and chemistry are "political" topics. (called "someone couldn't make it through high school science classes")

3. One where 1+1 = whatever you feel like at the moment.

A veritable WONDERLAND free of facts or the necessity to understand anything!

It must be populated by unicorns and quadruple rainbows.

You have made a syllogistic error here.
You seem to have me confused with William Shakespeare ... from Hamlet:
This business is well ended.
My liege, and madam, to expostulate
What majesty should be, what duty is,
Why day is day, night night, and time is time,
Were nothing but to waste night, day and time.
Therefore, since brevity is the soul of wit,
And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes,
I will be brief: your noble son is mad:
Mad call I it; for, to define true madness,
What is't but to be nothing else but mad?

:wave:

Global warming research expedition cancelled due to too much ice.

You just can't make this stuff up

Someone thinks that ice...in the winter...in Antarctica...is evidence that there is no global warming?

You're correct, you just can't make this stuff up!

It is most curious that you used leftist symbols to describe conservatives.

Was that confusion or deliberate juxtaposition? :confused:

All people who are truly witty may be brief, but not all who are brief are "witty".

Sometimes they are just unable to keep up with the details of the conversation.

I don't think it's keeping up with the detail, It appears to be a denial of the detail and facts.

But hey, from a certain standpoint to me, it can be quite entertaining to observe.

LOL, or the summer.

Someone would have to be mentally lacking to claim that ice in Antarctica is evidence against Global Warming.

It's just that stupid.
What appears stupid is going on an expedition to prove thinning ice, only to get trapped in unexpected, unusual ice :D:D:D
