Luckilly I got my forge inside (yay break drums) before all this lovely crap hit. My anvil is still outside I'm afraid, but oh well. I need some more coal anyways, this last batch of stuff I got turned into a gloopy mess, stuck to the steel and everything.

Ok let me get that right... You are 17 and already working with your own forge? That's awesome.

Is it just a hobby or you plan to make a living out of it?

I know the feeling man. Just got done shovelling more snow. Got about 14-18 inches (as much as two feet where it drifted) yesterday, with another 10-18 inches on they way. I love Maine.
 
Yall can have that stuff! Id rather be bustin coconuts! Actually I do like having the pot belly fired up in the dome. My wife hates the cold. She lived in New Hampshire before we were married and says she will never go back to the cold! She always talks about how nice the White mountains are and the Kangamangus (?) hiway and how I should go there. Maybe I should:D

I was waitin for you to chime in Philll:D Man...my taxes came in just after these Vim offerings. Danggit I wanted that last big un! That there Karda could skin a gator! How big can a Karda get before you have to call it something else? Like a micro-Tibetan sword? Micro-Talwar?
 
The ego of little Man, thinking he rules the Earth, may end with a whimper. However, most mass extinctions have been more dramatic.

As for facts, draw you own conclusions. The oceans rose 100 meters and a mile of ice melted away from where I live thousands of years before industrialization.



Can we make it worse? Sure. Can we change things on any useful scale? Doubtful.

Excellent graph Tal!

Matches what I have learnt as well, global warmings been going on a long time!

I think 10,000 years ago mass deforestation by slash & burn farming was becoming common? That & drought turned the sahara forest into the sahara desert...

I think we reaping 10,000 years of human influence, the seas are half dead & the majority of climax forest has gone, I think the industrial revolution effect its starting to kick in now.

But there just my beliefs, as with any belief that's all they are & they may be right or wrong....in the greater scheme of things.... In some ways the idea that a human can understand all the factors in play is obviously laughable.....

I think it was Einstein who said" what we understand is a drop what we don't is an ocean."

It's complicated. Beware of the certain.

None of the uncertainty excuses polluting this little aquarium we have to live in. Only so much air, water, space. Wars over resources to follow. :(

For sure, I think were on the same page really, I think the wars for resources included the far east in ww2 myself....& the games after & many since, ad on infinitum, the same strategic areas fought over for 150 or even for some 1500 years or more are still or about to be fought over again.... Nuclear power adds a new swing to be controlled but its the same old game...

Wish there was a solution... I cant see one though...

Hopefully someone can...

Make all wars be fought with double edge razor blades. Once the "death by a thousand cuts" is felt and known, perhaps wars would be less likely and people would be forced to work together and share. ;)
 
love this planet, an honor to be on it, hope the future generations get to experience it

When did this thread go from "You can't post ebay links" to "Global warming doesn't exist"?
 
lol someone said something about snow, and then someone said "global warming" about the cold winter, then I said " there is still climate change" etc etc :D

In case you guys did not know, I am an openly liberal man, I am coming out on these forums , I am a liberal! environmentalist, and I love animals, also socialist who thinks the only valid society is a communist dictatorship run by an Artificial Intelligence :D ( i covered all this in a long thread about cliimate change on the main forums politics lol )
 
you base your understanding of the world on wishful thinking, rather than what is really going on.

"Painfully ignorant zealotry" is what's going on.

The arrogance and ignorance needed to assume an AGW stance, is truly astounding.

Currently it's just a hobby, and truth be told I'm god awful. I've burnt more steel than I've hammered. It may make a life style after I'm out of the Army, but as soon as I graduate in June, the next three years or so of my life belong to Uncle Sam.
