Date: Wed, 23 Dec 2009 21:29:24 -0500 From: "Bosco D" <bos...@canada.com> >From a Goan context is the suggestion being made that students and alumni of Chowgule College, Dempo College, etc, should not protest the drawbacks of mining in Goa because they attended schools setup by philantrophists of the Chowgule and Dempo families?? Mario responds: The Goan context referred to is bogus. The point I was making is that if capitalism is such a failed system relative to Hugo Chavez's communism, his communist country would not need handouts from capitalism to clean up their environment. Hugo Chavez's Venezuela is one of the economic basket cases in the world in spite of all his God given oil reserves and has a 60% poverty rate, which is what makes his criticizing capitalism so ludicrous. Wise up. The closer equivalent of Bosco's Goan mining analogy would be if Goan miners were to suggest that other industries in Goa were destroying the Goan environment. Mario previously wrote: > WARNING: The author, Tim Ball, Ph.D. is a skeptic when it comes to > blaming puny humans for climate changes. Bosco wrote: Tim Ball?? The less said the better. Is that the best skeptic around?? Here is a snippet of Ball's own words [1]: Mario responds: Here we see that Bosco has been unable to point to a single thing that Tim Ball wrote in the article I had posted and respond to it, and instead is trying to scurrilously cast general aspersions on Mr. Ball using his comments made in another situation out of context, to try and deflect attention from what he wrote about the farce in Copenhagen. Whether you agree with him or not Mr. Ball is a climate scientist. Bosco selectively swallows whatever Al Gore and Rajendra Pachauri tell him, neither of whom are climate scientists. One of the problems with the climate change debate is that its most highly acclaimed spokespersons are documented charlatans like Mr. Gore and Mr. Pachauri who are lining their own pockets. The foremost climate scientists from the University of East Anglia in Britain were also recently shown to have ulterior motives and engaging in scurrilous unscientific behavior including destroying raw data, conspiring to keep data from scientists who may disagree, and conspiring to keep the work of opposing scientists from being peer reviewed and published. Such behavior from scientists should make real research scientists like Santosh cringe and put a question mark over the the validity of their entire body of work. For the last ten years the environmental extremists have been telling us the earth is going to hell and we must destroy only the western economies in order to save the world. Now we find that the earth has not warmed since 1998.
