Ozone? BAH! The ozone has had holes in it for millions of years. and it will have holes in it for millions more. The premise of a hole in the ozone is ridiculous, you know, Al Gore said this same thing so he could get donations to build another mansion in Tennessee.

After listening to the scientific rebuttals by those who don't believe in science, I'm now convinced the world breaking records every year for warmer average temperatures is all part of a giant scam. They must be using specially weighted thermometers.

The ozone hole is and has been mending for years. What, you clowns didn't know that?

However, scientists fear that the closing of the ozone hole may be contributing to global warming.

Ouch.

But not to a True Believer. The great paradox of this type of thinking is lost on these folks. What a shame. Great irony in their thinking, too bad its so dangerous to the world


personally I do not believe that man is causing global warming. I do know that the planet earth is 75000 years past due for an ice age. if an ice age pops up in the next decade or so, there shall be billions of people screaming for more global warming.

Where DO you get your information from? The last ice age ended only 11,700 years ago, and peaked about 20,000 years ago. The average time between ice age peaks is more than 100,000 years.....The next ice age is not "due" for many thousands of years........Do you just make this stuff up?

What you or I believe is obviously of no importance and will not alter the fact that the climate IS warming.

If scientists are so worried about holes in the ozone, why are they blowing electromagnetic beams through it?

HAARP will zap the upper atmosphere with a focused and steerable electromagnetic beam. It is an advanced model of an "ionospheric heater." (The ionosphere is the electrically-charged sphere surrounding Earth's upper atmosphere. It ranges between 40 to 60 miles above the surface of the Earth.)

This alone is a contradiction. Bad scientists, Bad Bad Scientists!

Who was growing wine in California 1000 years ago, and how did it get to France ?

There was a small ice age from about 1600-1850 when earth's temperatures cooled.

Actually, the world has been breaking records every year since we started recording temperatures. It's quite normal since we've only recorded them for a century or so.

And yes, some of the thermometers are bogus. Do a little research and you will find that some of the data comes from thermometers sitting next to AC units or in commercial areas. Not exactly scientific procedure.
