Default Global Warming: "Myth of Consensus Explodes: APS Opens Global Warming Debate"

http://www.dailytech.com/Myth+of+Con...ticle12403.htm

Quote:
The American Physical Society, an organization representing nearly 50,000 physicists, has reversed its stance on climate change and is now proclaiming that many of its members disbelieve in human-induced global warming. The APS is also sponsoring public debate on the validity of global warming science. The leadership of the society had previously called the evidence for global warming "incontrovertible."

Hmm, seems there may be more skeptics about anthropogenic global warning than previously thought...

Wow. They have a whole word for people like me: "Denier."

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.

That's a French word, isn't it? I think it's pronounced dee-NAY.

I dated a girl named Denae (pronounced dee-NAY) once. I'm not sure of her stance on man-made global warming as this was back in those carefree days of the the 1980's when all we had to worry about was nuclear holocaust.
