A fairly recent phenomena with doomsday like implications.
The Scientific community portrays this as a real and present danger.
Massive legislations are put forth.
Companies making billions of dollars off of the save the earth mentality.
Would this really be surprising if it was bullshit?
It's also worth noting that the implication of your points, i.e. that it was invented for profit motive, would require the bribing and cooperation of pretty much every climate scientist. Does that seem like a realistic ploy?
you act as if this would be the first time people with "the answers" deceived people for their own purposes. There was a scandal im sure you remember with e-mails being intercepted from doubting scientists. churches, corporations, politicians, and the media all lie or steer truth to their own ends. yet there are some people who want to believe science is above all that.
most places will not have to worry about it. i heard on the radio the schools are complaining about the costs of trying to serve fresh produce and whole grains. the money just isn't there.

It has mixed support, but popular support!No, see, the difference is that there is pretty much an overall consensus opinion in the scientific community about global warming. In the article you linked to, there's a section on what was actually published in journals at the time, and not only does this section show no consensus about global cooling, but early concern about global warming in the long term.
Global warming may have mixed opinions in the details within the scientific community, but the overall idea is widely accepted. This was not true of global cooling. Global cooling was a brief idea in the scientific community that was turned into a media circus, and is only notable now as an idea that was counter to our current theories about global warming.
If you will just look for a moment.

yes have no fear, your sims expansions will still be coming out
i say family guy for 3 reasons
1 family guy is more original. people blast it for being random but at least its doint something different than ONLY telling a funny story
2 if you watch southpark and the story sucks, the whole episode sucks. at least in family guy the extra jokes and 80s references can still make the episode worth watching
3. most of the new southpar episodes are really just not funny or creative.

so what country are you from? if you say canada or any european nation i can tell you one thing we can do. fuck up your economy! canadian and e.u. economies are tied heavly to ours, so if "stupid" american businesses ever tank guess who is coming along for the ride.
ok before i get started i want to make this very clear. i am not in anyway saying that i believe in, support, condone, or agree with racism.
that being said i am having a problem understanding something. why is it that when someone says or does something racist, people flip out like the sun is falling out of the sky, but they look the other way or even laugh at other equally wrong actions?
take domestic violence for example. bobby brown used to beat on whitney houstan and it was just a big joke to everybody. not to mention the fact she was on drugs was an even bigger laugh. when a ng member says " i need advice on a date what should i do" rape her is almost always in there. if the same guy said " this black kid wants to beat me up what should i do?" nobody is gonna say some shit like hang him. why is it wrong on one thing and funny on another?

i thought this was funny, i did it myself.
i kne wthis alrady but still funny. i used to work at best buy and i would tell people blu-ray was the way to go they just got all haughty and gave me the vhs vs betamax shit (the only reason half of those idiots know what betamax is is because they heard somebody say it on the new or something)
now i get to laugh in their faces when i told them last year who would win.
having sex on company property is a huge no no. btw you should have sued

M-16 is yeah accurate but pft drop it in the water and all you can do with it is throw it at someone.
m-16s dont jam as easily as you think. i doubt you have one unless you really like guns. the ak isnt a bad weapon but the thing can be wildly inaccurate. the m-16 is accurate from a good way away.
so yeah u can ury it and it still fire ut but when all you do is spray and pray it's limitations show through

House of the dead and resident evil are on the wii, Sega is also releasing a new tennis game that is supposedly better than wii sports version. Red steel was one of the first games and was a nice interactive FPS. Sure, you can just ignore the fact that sega and nintendo are making brawl and that olympic games thing. And of course wii-sports if very popular, because its a free game that comes with the system, and has tidbits of other games that were in production at the time ( Golf, Brunswick bowling, Mario allstars baseball (?) exc.) and besides, all wii needs to do is get some multiplayer servers for COD and other games, and It would become much more popular.
you just listed a bunch of shitty games save brawl. red steel was heralded as being terrible (i bought it and gamestop wouldnt let me trade it because they had to many unsold used copies i just gave it away to get it out of my house). go look on any game website wii overall has the worst reviewed games of any of the systems. and cod? are you serious? ps3 and 360 have cod4 a far superior game in every way.
I'd like to throw that question back at you with the ps3. I honestly don't see any games I really need from that system, that I can't get from the 360.
metal gear 4, wipeout hd, grand turismo 5, killzone 2, final fantasy 13, tekken 6, socom: confrontation,
motorStorm2, resistance 2, plus alot of original games such as wardevil and haze. the exclusives argument just died, the price argument has already died, blu ray just beat out hd-dvd so now the blu-ray player argument is dead. what else do you have? its too shiny?

I thought I was going to hate vista but I do not know why people hate it so much it runs so smoothly with no problem on my pc what so ever the only thing I thought was annoying are downloading everything I already had and it frequently double checking on what I want to download saying are you sure you want to download this? but it clearly is fast especially online. Oh yeah the games that came with it are awesome mahjong
i was the exact same way. people who hate vista are usually computer illiterate. they dont understand concepts like downloading new drivers or this button moved over here. most of them could barely use xp so vista just makes their heads hurt. i have used it for months and have not run into one problem, its actually more stable than my xp machine.

And i would think everyone on ng is a gamer you all should of seen this coming and acted early like the rest of us. What's crazy about it, it's not that great, It's alright but nothing too mind blowing, but that's going to change once ssbb comes out and i would bet it's going tobe even harder to find.
yeah dreamcast broke records when it came out to, now look where it is.
while yes the wii has sold better than any other console, remember 360 just doesn't sell in japan. i dont know why they hate it buy they do, 360 is still outselling wii in America.
ps3 is expected to have a huge turnaround this year, the failure of hd-dvd, metal gear, grand turismo, wipe out all hitting this year. i even heard ps3 could be as low as $300 this cristmas, in that case wii would have to drop its price tremendously to stay relevant.
nintendo is pulling its last punches this year. smash brow and mario cart are the only good games slated to come out. if you google the top 2 wii games you get wii sports, wii play, and mario galaxy. wii sports comes with the damn system so that really doesnt count and wii play comes bundled with a controller so you really only pay $10 for the game. also can you name any nintendo made games that are just "omg i have to have that!" no? didnt think so.
