What the fucks so great about little coils that turn red when you run an electric current through them?

I heard Tesla went mad and was trying to develop some kind of death ray. Maybe that's what they were after?

Uh, whether the green-house effect is real or not, pollution is still harmful.

This is the third report issued by the IPCC, and it's the third time that they have found global warming to be a very real, and very anthropomorphic, cause for concern. The IPCC, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, is an international collection of the world's foremost experts on the subject.

Additionally, "global dimming" won't have a measurable impact on global warming in the long term. The very sources that the wikipedia page cites say as much: "It is a matter of the basic laws of physics that an increase in carbon dioxide will trap more heat in the Earth's atmosphere..."


The one thing force produces is resistance.
