The following is by Joe *******i, senior meteorologist for
Accu-Weather. It is presented for your edification.



MONDAY 6:30 AM..
A DELIGHTFUL DAY IN NYC AND COPENHAGEN SATURDAY... IF YOU ARE A POLAR
BEAR

The upcoming climate conference in Copenhagen will be attended by many
who for some reason, seem to believe they can control the planet's
temperature. Actually, this isn't about control of the planet's
temperature, but control of the planet's people, since that is much
easier to do if you can hoodwink them into believing they are being
controlled for a good reason.

Folks, it's the only logical conclusion. Why? Because while I will
acknowledge I am not 100% sure we humans have nothing to do with it,
there is no way any man alive can be 100% positive we are. And to
force feed ideas down another man's throat is simply trying to enslave
them to your ideas. It's that simple, given the evidence, which can
certainly fight any warming argument to a draw.

In any case, another example of a power greater than Al Gore is
showing up, and whether you believe it's simply nature, or whoever
created nature, it should not be lost on people that maybe someone is
trying to give this now immensely rich carbon crusader a hint, that he
should cash in his chips and leave the climate casino happy that he
made this much. Saturday will be cold day across the United States
after a brutal winter storm that will lead to a blizzard on the Plains
into the Great Lakes, an interior Northeast snow and ice storm, a
lake-effect outbreak that may be one of the nastiest in years, and a
pattern that is threatening to wreck many a holiday travel plan in the
longer term. And that is in the States. Meanwhile, back at the climate
debacle ranch where I was expecting that at least the attendees would
get there by horse and buggy, or fly coach (see headline below)
northeast winds and a big Scandinavian high should at least keep
Copenhagen chilly, if not snowy.

By the way, the "trick" in the Climategate scandal that is being
referred to is not getting rid of something minor like the last 10
years of cooling. IT WAS TO GET RID OF 350 YEARS OF WARMING FROM
1000-1350. I have already told you that this is simply because it got
so warm... the real cooling is getting ready to start, probably after
this El Nino, but more so in the middle of the next decade. Perish the
thought, but by 2015, the Earth's temps may be "normal" whatever that
mythical value is, and the melting icecaps, will be looked at as Peggy
Lee "is that all there is" meltdown. If this is all we can get,

it won't take much to have us well above normal in 10-15 years.

But on they go, these new Gods of our ages, with the wisdom of their
models which have plainly been busting and a generation of people who
believe they are "liberal" (what a joke... since when does a
liberal-minded person simply follow along like a sheep... another case
of a misnomer to describe a group... look at one of the definitions:
Liberalism is a broad class of political philosophies that considers
individual liberty and equality to be the most important political
goals...) If there was truly liberal thought here, people would be
looking at all the facts, not simply following along.

I still think that this whole Climategate fiasco will lead to an open
debate where men and women of good will can see this is not an
open-and-shut case, and they are being lead like sheep to the
slaughter. Problem is some of wolves don't want any part of it.

If these people meeting in Copenhagen really want to show us their
virtue, do not use any power at all while at the conference. That's
right... no heat, no electricity, none of the fruits of true
progressive and enlightened thinking. Let's see you put your money
where your mouth is. Fat chance with the arrogance of imagined
authority you display.

I want you to think about this. James Hansen may be arguably America's
greatest astronomer, but he is no expert on climate or weather. Sorry,
the facts are there. I don't think he understands what the weather was
like in this country in the 1930s-50s, nor does he understand that the
Earth's climate is constantly changing; there is no perfect climate.
That being said, I can't see how people will not question him on the
climate issue, where he came aboard as a concerned observer, with best
of intentions.. when he and his agency is missing what may be the
greatest astronomical event of our lifetimes, the falling asleep of
the Sun. It is now two years behind NASA's idea that this sunspot
cycle would come alive in 2007 and right in line with what Soviet
scientists back in the early 1990s were saying, the same people who
opined we could return to a little ice age around 2030. How is it that
the people who are actually right are shouted down, while people who
are not are allowed to jam their ideas down everyone's throat? That is
what this Climategate is about... the FREEDOM to debate and the scary
thought that yet another utopian idea-based movement is out to take
over the world. It's not done with guns, but with a more subtle
approach. SORRY, BUT THAT CONCLUSION IS JUST VALID AS "THE SCIENCE IS
SETTLED" idea. A degree or two up or down is not going to kill the
planet, and think about it, would you rather it colder or warmer.

In any case, a word of advice to NASA, which seems to have some
linkage to all this:

Physician, heal thyself.
