Some will recognize this rebuttal from 2+ years ago..he spewing the same old BS after being whacked like a cheap piñata numerous times
-------
"There are a couple of facts we can be certain of"
These are "facts" that aren't relevant to the argument..just pointless spin:
"1. If every American started driving a Prius tomorrow, the net effect on man-made global CO2 generation would be insignificant."
A Prius, and especially the new plug in model reduces fuel consumption ( which does reduce carbon emissions) and dependency on petroleum based fuels are the number one reason people buy them, hence your ridicule.
"2. Environmentalists are not in favor of more nuclear power plants."
Some are , some aren't. A fallacious line of argument that assumes nuclear power plants are the only solution. A meaningless statement.
"3. Global cooling from diminished solar activity will render this entire discussion moot."
The global cooling you were referencing in the previous posts ( above) was in a discussion on aerosols in the atmosphere counterbalancing CO2 emissions heating effect, in another blog the "proof " was due to orbital forcing or Milankovitch cycles. Now magically it's due to "diminished solar activity." Things are dimming alright...but its not the sun. At least in the next few thousand years anyway By the way,
"The next message will be flashed to you in code, by my brother-in-law, who was a radio operator 1963-1968."
Morse code communication is still practiced by our Russian and Chinese friends, who know that if the balloon goes up,HF and LF Morse is the most reliable form of long haul communications and will be around long after our satellites , cell phones and terrestrial coms are piles of fused plastic.
You really shouldn't make fun of things you don't understand."
