Ah, another opinion piece from a rightwing Murdoch publication out of the UK - from our resident I'm not a republican, I'm really quite moderate, I might vote Democratic! poster.
Still angry about Gore's Nobel Prize, SF?

Poor Gore, the scientists he shared the Nobel prize come to the conclusion that he is a fear monger. tsk tsk.

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

I don't think any of us can deny that weather is changing. I do get somewhat irritated when goreians absolutely deny a report of this type could hold any truth. I think the truth of the matter is somewhere in between the goreians and the danoites.
Hi Charver, I was thinking about you this morning, because while I was getting ready for work I had on the news, and the newscasters were salivating over some smoke coming out of London?
They kept saying “authorities say they don’t think it’s a terrorist attack, but nothing is for certain yet” so you could tell they were still holding out hope that it was a terrorist attack.
Me, I figured some chemical plant had blown and f’d up a lot of working people, which is no big deal to the media, but it kind of worries me.
Anyway I am glad that you are ok.
You must not want to ignore me that bad, because I'm constantly running across threads, where you're talking about what an alleged idiot I am, even when I haven't posted on that particular thread.
Anyway, I think its interesting that you're always posting from extreme rightwing opinion pieces in National Review, Opinion Journal, Telegraph, while proclaiming how moderate you are, and that you want to vote for Dems.
Its funny, isn't it?
Apparently it's some old warehouse or something. It was going to be knocked down anyway as it's on the site of the London Olympic development. Far be it for me to say that someone set fire to it in order to speed up the process, that would be unthinkable.
Thankfully, i'm not a London dweller. I'm at the top end of England, near the Scottish border, just outside the Lake District national park.
Thanks for the concern though. It's nice to know someone other than the police are looking out for me.

Quote from Cypress:
"Scientists don't use "averages". Maybe armchair supertools on message boards ascribe some meaning to "averages" between two random data points. And maybe clueless amatuers "draw a straight line" through two random end data points to define a "trend". Experts don't.
They use mean annual and five year means in trend analysis. Don't tell me I have to explain the difference to you. "
This was a weird one to bump.
