An experiment: Fill a tall clear glass half-way with ice cubes. Then
add enough water so the bottom cubes no longer touch the bottom
(i.e., they are all floating). Now put a mark at the water level and
wait until the cubes all melt. Did the water rise above your mark?

In my case, it didn't.


Good right wing thinking. Just ignore the huge volume of glaciers on land.
When
they melt, they flow into the sea and cause it to rise.

Interesting. So asking questions, wondering about things, trying
experiments and seeing what others have to say about it is "Good right
wing thinking"

What is good left wing thinking then?

Yeah, the comment is a bit out of line isn't it.
We can only speculate why Rebel1 thought he knew better than
all the worlds scientists.

But then, Rebel1 claimed "there are good analytical minds here".
(Yes, I laughed so hard, I almost choked.)

Maybe it's not so out of line to guess he was referencing
those mass poster nut jobs that live in my kill file.

The idea that scientists are scammers making things up for profit
does seem to come from one political party.

But only Rebel1 can explain why he suddenly thought he was
smarter than a bunch of people that actually studied the subject.

I wonder if he actually performed his "tall glass" experiment.
I bet it was a tall jelly glass and a sharpie.
We all know calibrated beakers, are for pinko scientists.
