Danny Bloom (22:02:34) :

I bid adieu to all my new-found friends here.

If only, if only…

And:

As the plaintiff for this class-action lawsuit…

It is very likely that Danny Bloom is fibbing outright about a lawsuit, and has been all along.

What law firm would take a case that requires them to prove intent for a future act?

And any lawyer worthy of the name would have two words of advice for Bloom regarding his endless discussion of the case here and elsewhere: “Shut …UP!!”

So there is no lawsuit. Bloom is making it all up, so he can bask in the publicity.

Prove me wrong, Bloom. Post the name and address of your law firm right here, along with the case number and the court it was filed in. Lawsuits are a matter of public record, so simply acknowledging that one has been filed is no problem.

Ball’s in your court, Danny boy. This is where we see if you have credibility — or if you’re just a publicity hound.

Hmmm, good suggestion, Kim, re DOTEARTHOPOLIS. I will tell Andy. What’s nice about this debate, despite the fact that it might be a life or death issue in the far distant future — not NOW, of course, NOW life is wonderfull (sic) — what’s nice about everyone in this debate, pro and con, is that we all, or most of us, have a good sense of humour about it all. Love it: DOTEARTHOPOLIS.

When I finish with lawsuit, will get right on it. [Over and out.]

You’ll see more and more of this Jeff. It’s called cognitive dissonance and it will become epidemic as those who believe in the paradigm of CO2=AGW are confronted with dropping temperatures worldwide. I applaud Danny for at least exposing himself to alternative points of view.

Danny, maybe you could use some of your energy creating communities of sanity and comfort for those with severe climatic cognitive dissonance. Call the first one ‘DotEarthopolis’.

Danny, if you agree with me why the lawsuit? That just makes no sense at all, but then again this whole thread makes no sense at all.

I bid adieu to all my new-found friends here. Let’s meet again in ten years time and compare notes. I might be a skeptic by then. For now, I am just a mere nutcase. I know. Everyone tells me. Sigh. Growing up is hard to do…

Outta here. My last post. Anthony, thanks for hosting this superb discussion.

I agree 1000000%.

“We simply need to learn more about the global climate than we currently do, a lot more. Right now there is zero evidence of a catastrophe going on (at least regarding climate). Which means there is no reason to halt progress and de-industrialze the world.”

To be 60 again, Mr Bloom, would make me feel like a youth… but not, I trust, a whining child.

“Please listen to James Lovelock and James Hansen and Tim Flannery and Fred Pearce and Mark Lynas and Sharon Astyk and James Howard Kunstler now. Before it is too late!”

Then you agree that those who disagree with the abovenamed individuals should be jailed? Are you really ready for a totalitarian state? That’s what you’re proposing. We’re proposing better science, transparent data and methods, facts, not hyperbole. Tell Hansen to tell us all how he adjust his data. Tell Mann, Jones, Santer, Briffa, etc to release their data and methods so proper science can be done.

Oh, and take a valium, BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE!

I fully support your “catching up”, Mr Bloom. I am only suggesting you do it in your own time.

You might be right, The Earth might be cooling. I might be wrong. I completely agree with you that I might be wrong. I often am. Let’s check back in 2015 and again in 2020 and again 2040, and see whether dear Earth got warmer or cooler. Could very well be that Earth grew cooler. I am open to your views. Cheers! And Happy Holidays! — Danny

Whether it warms or cools is irrelevant. The question is are we causing it to warm. So just because it warms is not proof that we are causing it, or can stop it. We simply need to learn more about the global climate than we currently do, a lot more. Right now there is zero evidence of a catastrophe going on (at least regarding climate). Which means there is no reason to halt progress and de-industrialze the world.

Roger,
Story of my life. I am usually way behind the curve. Still, be a sport, and let me try to catch up. I still got a lot of learnin’ to do, I know. We all do. I’ve learned alot already on this blog, and I thank everyone for keeping me posted on things I still need to learn, and really, I have learned a lot here this week. You have widened my horizons on this ongoing discussion and I appreciate the advice and suggestions, even if some of them were a bit snide. That’s okay. Comes with the territory. But most people here have been very supportive and encouraging, and I appreciate that. Cooling, warming, let’s check back in 10 years and see what the stats say. It might all be cooling, yes, and I might have been very wrong. In which case, I will withdraw my lawsuit and apologize. Give me some room to grow. After all, I am a growing boy! Sixty going on 80. Learn something new everyday. If I am wrong about global warming, I will eat my hat. Promise. In 2025.

Danny Bloom (17:40:36) wrote: "However, while some readers here might see my lawsuit as futile, it is not pointless. Some will agree with me, others will disagree. Let the worldwide discussion, pro and con, begin." You cause me to feel a real despair, Mr Bloom. The worldwide discussion, pro and con began some considerable time ago and has been robust. Are you asking the rest of us to wait until you catch up? It would be better if you caught up with the rest of us rather than see resources expended on an historical replay just so you can join the vanguard.
