Default O/T: Throw Another Log On The Fire

One year ago the temp reached 100F.

Today was a struggle to reach the high 60F's.

A Spring winter storm, more like a late Winter storm is coming in off
the Pacific.

The ski resorts are loving it, they expect to be open at least thru
June.

So, "Throw another log on the fire, .................."

Have you considered what that wood fire will contribute to Global Warming?

No. Liberals never do what they preach. Look at their preacher,
Algore's, estate in Kentucky, which, after public shame and eco
retrofit, still uses _20_times_ the energy a typical human's home
requires. (He uses 221,000KWh while I used 5,000 last year, 44 times
my requirement. Nat'l avg is 10,656KWh annually.) For them, it's "Do
as I say, not as I do." Hypocrites, all.

If you are running low on logs you might want to toss in my last few
projects. It might take a sledge to get them ready for the fireplace
but that is about what they are worth. :-(

The same thing the members of the Church of Globalony understand when they
blame hurricanes on Globalony Warming. Except in this case it's done poking

That's it? That's all you got, you unimaginative redneck fool? You
see, that is the biggest problem you right-wing nutbars have: no
imagination. Then, when you see/hear something you don't like or
understand, "IT'S A LEFT-WING conspiracy, man your weapons!!!"

DO try to widen your scope of understanding what goes on around you
and start by taking your head out of your ass.

love,

Crikey, Scott. BUY a braincell.


Or rent a humor gene ...


I love these "carbon neutral" statements about the forms of heating
which put out up to 400 times the pollution/CO2 than other forms do.
Have you ever seen a quiet valley where there are a dozen home fires
going? It's inundated with smoke so your visibility is cut to the
next house, if you're close enough. I've driven through Merlin, OR
and wondered about the dense fog until I got past the ONE fireplace
which had smoked out the entire freakin' town! I drove through several
miles of it and could smell the smoke, but couldn't see any fireplaces
until then. Two of my neighbors have pellet stoves, and even they're
nasty when you're standing downwind of 'em. Uckfay Oodway Iresfay.

I stand by my statement that burning wood is carbon neutral. Look it up.

I made no statement in the post above about air pollution (other than
an indirect reference to the particulate matter produced and its effect
on climate), neither did I condemn nor defend burning wood.

Have you considered what that wood fire will contribute to Global
Warming?
;-)


If anything, the particulate matter in the wood smoke will cool the
planet.

As for CO2, there is no net gain in CO2 from burning firewood, since
the
CO2 in the firewood was recently (within a few decades, usually) in
the
atmosphere. Firewood is 'carbon neutral', unlike fossil fuels like
coal
and oil.

Crikey, Scott. BUY a braincell.

Or rent a humor gene ...

I love these "carbon neutral" statements about the forms of heating
which put out up to 400 times the pollution/CO2 than other forms do.
Have you ever seen a quiet valley where there are a dozen home fires
going? It's inundated with smoke so your visibility is cut to the
next house, if you're close enough. I've driven through Merlin, OR
and wondered about the dense fog until I got past the ONE fireplace
which had smoked out the entire freakin' town! I drove through several
miles of it and could smell the smoke, but couldn't see any fireplaces
until then. Two of my neighbors have pellet stoves, and even they're
nasty when you're standing downwind of 'em. Uckfay Oodway Iresfay.


You seen a grass burning?


Yeah, beautiful, isn't it?


A pale shadow of what it was 40 years ago ...

Smoke isn't the problem. It can be a problem locally but it's
particulates and if they get high enough and stay high enough they may
actually help. It's CO2 that's believed to be the problem, and it's
believed that the reason it's a problem is that humans are rapidly
releasing CO2 that was stored over tens of millions of years. So wood
burning, which releases CO2 that would be released in the next couple or
centuries anyway and which will be resorbed by the next generation of
trees, is not a significant part of the problem.

Of course that assumes that anthropogenic global warming is a real
phenomenon and that it's the huge problem that the fear industry makes
it out to be.

I stand by my statement that burning wood is carbon neutral. Look it up.


Of course you do, Scott. And you'd bet your Birkenstocks on it,
wouldn't you?


What's a birkenstock?

A few minutes of googling would quickly determine that I've no
sympathy for the AGW'ers.

I don't gamble. So, you're incorrect on every point.
