What does 10 TRILLION gallons of water even equate to?

It is the height of human ignorance is to disbelieve scientific evidence, and to look for any possible way out of it, by misdirection and finger-pointing. Do you remember what a fight it was go get lead out of gasoline?

I didn't want to enter into this anymore because it's a waste of time, but you specifically attacked me. Dismiss me, call me names.. I don't care. Science doesn't care what you believe.

Problem is these days, one person's "scientific fact" could very well end up being nothing more than modified, tainted, or just flat-out wrong results in order to achieve a desired result. And once again, it comes from ALL sides. To emphasize again, as far as I am concerned, all sides are guilty of junk science and facts.

We are, after all, talking about the same "science" that has said over the years:

-Asbestos was safe.
-Lead in paint and fuel was safe.
-The thyroid medication my grandmother took that caused her cancer (and death) was safe.
-All manner of health destroying artificial food products are safe (obesity, diabetes, etc. epedemic anyone?)
-DDT was safe to use
-etc. etc. etc.


Science can be wrong. Has been throughout our entire history.

Science can be wrong because humans are, well, human. They can be wrong. They can be influenced by greed, arrogance, indifference, agendas, etc..

And I am not saying the current GW science is wrong. But I am not saying it is right either, especially to the level of some of the doom-and-gloom predictions.


Specifically attacked you? Ummmm.....no.

I responded to -your- post which quoted one of mine. Nothing more, nothing less. Alot of what I have been writing is addressed towards a general crowd, not an individual person (with some exceptions). The arrogance part was not directed at you whatsoever. Thats why I inserted multiple spaces between the paragraphs.

You said nobody here asks for a change in people. You said you are having the government do that. I countered that statement.
