Most of us see the changing weather patterns.....we just disagree on the cause being man made.

The study has no bearing on whether global warming is man-made. If you choose to disagree with what most scientists say, that''s only your opinion and most people would say you are being foolish. Our understanding of the stars and planets, the origins of man and other species, the sub-atomic composition of matter--all that and more have been made possible by men of science, not by people like you. I''ll take their word any time.

"Global Warming-Hurricane Link Questioned"

Uh-oh. Anybody who goes against the global warming scam will be labeled a "global warming denier", and will be called all sorts of names by the Al Gore crowd.

Oppose these nuts at your own risk.

The science behind global warming is on solid ground to be undone by a single study. What counts is the overwhelming weight of evidence and that is what moves the scientific consensus. Anyway, the conclusions pertain only to one miniscule aspect of global warming. Factoring in the caveats raised about the modeling used, there isn''t much there.

You guys are just grasping at straws.

Those that do, however, are more likely to be whoppers.

Well, I appreciate the fact that you are trying to have an adult debate on the matter. We''ll agree to disagree.

Most of us see the changing weather patterns.....we just disagree on the cause being man made.

Global warming in real, the US and other countries are manipulating the weather and the China earthquake and Myanmar Cyclone were NOT from natural causes.

Wait.... Are saying that humans can cause 7.0 earthquakes anytime they want to??????????
Hold on while I make some popcorn real quick, this is going to be good!

Rather than trying to decide your own position based on conflicting, confusing, and sometimes fraudulent "evidence," it might simplify things to just consider we''ve never been able to heavily abuse other ecosystems--, streams, rivers, oceans, etc. without serious and sometimes deadly implications for the flora, fauna, and sometimes even people who dwell there. What''s the chance, then, that we can get away with heavily abusing the atmosphere, perhaps the most sensitive and vital ecosystem of all? And of course trouble there will affect EVERYBODY.

He said his new study, based on a computer model, argues "against the notion that we''ve already seen a really dramatic increase in Atlantic hurricane activity resulting from greenhouse warming."


The denier crowd previously refused to accept ANY computer modeling, when it showed adverse effects of climate change. Yet now they suddenly accept the validity of a computer model when it goes their way? LMAO !!!!

LibH8er said: "After Katrina, Gore (et al) couldn''''t keep their faces off the TV blaming Katrina on gloooooobal warrrrrrming and warning that it would increase."
The SIZE of Katrina IS related to Global Warming. The frequency of such events is in question, cuz the Pacific warms also, and its warming prevents Atlantic Hurricanes from making landfall on the East Coast. Those that do, however, are more likely to be whoppers.

This study hardly contradicts Global Warming.

Don''t even go there, cupcake. After Katrina, Gore (et al) couldn''t keep their faces off the TV blaming Katrina on gloooooobal warrrrrrming and warning that it would increase.

Well, Katrina was followed by two years of nothing. Now, we have this. There''s a sucker born every minute. Too bad we have more than our share!

Doesn''''t make Gore a fraud.

Only time will tell. Just keep sending him your $$$ for purchasing your ''carbon credits'' to ease your guilty conscience. LOL

The Bush Administration has twisted Tom Knutson''s legs for him to switch his position and Ben Stein is a liar. Follow Stein''s and Joe Liebermann''s religious ties, look at the Bush Family''s ties to Israel to follow the money and disastrous events in the US and the world.

There is no oil shortage and Americans are suffering with escalating prices that will not go down for years to come. Follow the money!
