Here is one of Dr. Hansen's statements to this effect:http://www.crudeoilpeak.com/?p=767Quote //TONY JONES: Okay, well you’re talking about what you find from the examination of ice core data. Is there a comparable period in history, the history of the planet that is, where warming accelerates due to these feedback mechanisms, and do you get m…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ Jan. 17 2011,20:18)Not all the energy hitting desert areas is absorbed.  You should find that since these areas are lighter in colour there should be more of that light reflected back into space.  After all that is how the satellites are able to photograph them as whiter. The areas of vegetation are more effective in absorbing the l…[Read more]

Quote (t8 @ Jan. 17 2011,15:24)Yes, it is easy to observe how much cooler a forest is compared to an adjacent plain with no trees. I read somewhere that Israel effectively changed their climate and is one of a few places where desertification is reversed.When desertification takes place, it also blows hotter air to areas outside of the desert and…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ Jan. 24 2011,22:50)You are taking what Hawking said far too seriously.  Einstein and he both mock your god constantly.  They don't built “greater constructs” than your god, they simply use “god” in the metaphorical sense akin to the idea of Spinoza, personifying the universe in rhetorical use as much as anything.There never was a g…[Read more]

So far we have seen essentially no rise in ocean levels because the central, land based, super cold region of Antarcica is taking in huge amounts of atmospheric moisture and adding it to its colossal amount of ice.//Let us consider Antarctica for a moment.We have already seen that it is big. It has a land area of 5.5million square miles, and is…[Read more]

Judging from what I have read about energy from the quantum vacuum or zero point energy this experiment may yield some astonishing results.

For the record I wrote this to bother my buddies who are atheists and I was hoping that you might have some similar success with this line of thought.

Personally I do love the Book of Adam and Eve and I will not be surprised if I find out after I die that it may have been one of the books that were alluded to in scripture. I love the Book of Jasher as well. At the least they are vastly better reading than a bestselling fiction novel which I haven't had time for in years.
