    as long as the river is predicted to dry out and never replenish for 20 years.

    Funny when People in Syria get attacked or blown by the moderates the American media sheds no tears.

    You mean like these predictions below?






    "[By] 1995, the greenhouse effect would be desolating the heartlands of North America and Eurasia with horrific drought, causing crop failures and food riots…[By 1996] The Platte River of Nebraska would be dry, while a continent-wide black blizzard of prairie topsoil will stop traffic on interstates, strip paint from houses and shut down computers." Michael Oppenheimer, published in "Dead Heat," St. Martin's Press, 1990.

    Within a few years "children just aren't going to know what snow is." Snowfall will be "a very rare and exciting event." Dr. David Viner, senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia, interviewed by the UK Independent, March 20, 2000.

    the other one wasn't from a scientific study, it was a person's opinion.

    You first said only one was a scientist. I showed you that was false, so you now switch to this thing about studies.

    And conclusions in studies are the opinions of the authors.

    I don't really see what you mean. The first part makes it seem like you think the deaths were unavoidable. The second makes it seem like you thought they were avoidable.
    Genuine, willful, aggressive ignorance is the one sure way to tick me off. I wish I could say you were trolling. I know better, and it's just sad.

    The "TRUTH" is that I have been alive for 64 years and during that time frame NONE (ZERO) of the alarmists claims have come true. My own personal observations (the truth) is that it was quite a bit hotter in the north American continent when I was young than now. My own personal observations (the truth) is that I have heard these alarmist prophesies all my life and I've observed NONE (that's ZERO) of them to come true...

    Wonder why this dumb thread was moved from Politics to the Guest Forum. Does this mean people have to be nice to PRB, treating him like a guest?

    So which non-alarmist claims have been true? What do you count as "alarmist" claims? Do you first find what fails, then call them alarmist?

    I see I have once again blundered by assuming perhaps too much or being too subtle. There is a school of thought that asserts that any postfacto result was in fact unavoidable precisely because it happened. There is also the school of thought that says when your nickel is up, it's up. There was also the admittedly oblique implication of the all too common stupidity of men, and it was that to which the second statement was meant to bolster. People that stupid simply cannot avoid ghosting themeslves under circumstances where intelligent men would be preserved through rational decision making.

    Not to mention all the great rocket surgeon "scientists" out there doing their academic studies. One year eating fat is the worst thing you could do and the next, it's the best. It is clear to me that what often passes as "science" is nothing better than two chimps beating on an automatic transmission with baseball bats.

    so scientists are always wrong?
