    But seriously though, folks, IS this a case of America reaping what she sows? The refusal to ratify Kyoto by the world's biggest polluter (for the moment; the Chinese are fast catching up)on Bush's maxim that the American economy and American jobs and money must come first does now have to be weighed against the estimated $26 billion cost of Katrina, particularly with the undoubted link between pollution and global warming (which only fruitcakes like David Bellamy now dispute)....

    No one has yet been able to prove that global warming even exists, let alone what might cause it. For every scientist that is concerned about it , there is one that isn't.

    It is nothing short of pure conjecture that Katrina has anything at all to do with the so called global warming problem.

    Katrina was due to neither global warming, nor scriptural retribution, nor apocalyptic iminency. It was due to normal and expected weather patterns that occur cyclically in a rather regular and expected pattern.

    Yes, I feel for the people in New Orleans, but they chose to live in a region where this is expected. Further, they chose to live in a region that is below sea level, where the water is held back artifically, in contrast to the laws of nature and physics.

    When a person build a house ono a freeway, there's an accepted risk of the house getting hit by a truck. Those who blame global warming, scriptural retribution, or apocalyptic iminency for Katrina are the ones who are truly brainwashed and unable to see through the deception.

    Fellow on coast to coast www.coasttocoastam.com claims that it was caused by the Russians who have learned to control the weather.

    Baptist Board Posting Rules

    Based on the wording of this rule, I would have to say that PNut is the biggest troll on this board since most of what he posts is absolutely absurd.

    Joseph Botwinick     </font>[/QUOTE]I would have to disagree with you. A few other names come to mind. [​IMG]

    I am surprised that Jerry Falwelll has not delared God's judgment on the area like he has done with other things.

    Of course the folks there had casinos moored at the docks.

    Katrina and Disgusting Exploitation

    By James K. Glassman

    The Kyoto advocates point to warmer ocean temperatures, but they ought to read their own favorite newspaper, The New York Times, which reported yesterday:

    "Because hurricanes form over warm ocean water, it is easy to assume that the recent rise in their number and ferocity is because of global warming. But that is not the case, scientists say. Instead, the severity of hurricane seasons changes with cycles of temperatures of several decades in the Atlantic Ocean. The recent onslaught 'is very much natural,' said William M. Gray, a professor of atmospheric science at Colorado State University who issues forecasts for the hurricane season.'"

    An article on TCS quoted Gray last year as saying that, while some groups and individuals say that hurricane activity lately "may be in some way related to the effects of increased man-made greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide,…there is no reasonable scientific way that such an interpretation…can be made."

    Indeed, there is no evidence that hurricanes are intensifying anyway. For the North Atlantic as a whole, according to the United Nations Environment Programme of the World Meteorological Organization: "Reliable data…since the 1940s indicate that the peak strength of the strongest hurricanes has not changed, and the mean maximum intensity of all hurricanes has decreased."

    Yes, decreased.

    Not only has the intensity of hurricanes fallen, but, as George H. Taylor, the state climatologist of Oregon has pointed out, so has the frequency of hailstorms in the U.S. (see Changnon and Changnon) and cyclones throughout the world (Gulev, et al.).

    But environmental extremists do not want to be bothered with the facts. Nor do they wish to mourn the destruction and death wreaked on a glorious city. To their everlasting shame, they would rather distort and exploit.
