Sorry. I fell out of bed last night.
FWIW, the chief scientist from the Met Office was on R5L earlier, being quizzed about a Freedom of Information request.
Basically, the inter-governmental long range prediction for last spring / early "summer".
She admitted herself that the Met Office "predicted" that "April 2012 could be drier than normal, or it could be wetter than normal".
Can I get a job like that?
Oh, and I wouldn't break out the BBQs just yet - this May-June might be "normal", she authoritatively reported to finish the slot.

Apparently a comet named PanSTARRS can be seen in the night time sky for the next few nights
According to the 'experts' it will not be visible for another 100,000 years. Another claim by scientists that cannot be substantiated!!

That's the great thing about the climate change thing - there is no"control" experiment. Just accept what "the scientists" say.
or just accept what "the sceptics" say,
It's just like the creation/ evolution argument
I am all for not wasting resources, and not basically vandalising the planet. And if climate change is what it takes, so be it.
But, I don't reckon the vast majority of the world's population give a toss, and I am not convinced by the science.
But I'll to not by what I don't need, turn the heating down, and recycle. Not sure how that stacks up against 20 million extra cars per year in India, but hey ho.....

On climate change, the scientists are constantly going on about their 'computer models' and how they show - presumably by extrapolation - that the earth is warming.
But surely computers are only as good as the programmes installed on them. And programs are written by scientists who are out to prove that man-made climate change is a fact.

No, the scientists show the earth is warming by measuring its temperature.
Even the politicians who don't believe man is the major cause of the warming accept the earth is warming up. They just blame something else.

I think 'the point' has been missed yet again. Never mind!
I know you want to be my friend but you already blew it:
You have my best wishes, and I hope you overcome your strange illness. GOODBYE.
I see. So i'm a scientist, and I record the temperatures at a certain place;
let's say in
1990 = 15 deg.
2000 = 16 deg.
2010 = 17 deg.
That means the temperature in 2100 will be 26 deg.
You cannot extrapolate something as variable as climate, and anyone who claims to have found a pattern is deluding themselves.
As with financial investments, past performanceis no guide to the future.
Arn't we all meant too of died from radiation through depletion of the ozone layer by now ? just sayin
