This post serves two purposes.
1. A forum for open discussion in a civil manner
2. A test for Windows Live Writer to see how well it does for creating a blog post.

Mirum est notare quam littera gothica, quam nunc putamus parum claram, anteposuerit litterarum formas humanitatis per seacula quarta decima et quinta decima. Eodem modo typi, qui nunc nobis videntur parum clari, fiant sollemnes in futurum.

Since peer-review turned into pal-review, I think the need for more funds to study further, requires a new kind of review: Paypal-review.
REPLY: Now THAT’s a review everyone can buy. – Anthony
Civil comment? Oops, wrong number. Sorry.
==============
We need Lord Monckton to translate this for us.
Here ya go kim,
http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/22/world/africa/in-scramble-for-land-oxfam-says-ugandans-were-pushed-out.html?_r=1
It does not get more uncivil than “In Scramble for Land, Group Says, Company Pushed Ugandans Out”.
Google translation, first block (Latin – English):

Second block:
It is strange to note is the Gothic than the letters, which they now do we think a little clear, forms of letters of humanity anteposuerit seacula by the fourteenth and fifteenth. Types the same way, who now votes, they become solemn in the future.
From the ‘What is’ FAQ:
What is ‘lorem ipsum’?
‘Lorem ipsum’ is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. It has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s. It has been popularised ‘recently’ with desktop publishing software and in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing ‘lorem ipsum’ passages.
“A test for Windows Live Writer to see how well it does for creating a blog post.”
Anthony, unfortunately, Windows Live Writer does not seem to be working. The remainder of the post came out in some strange tongue. Either the Chinese translation feature you were testing is not working or we have been transported back into an earlier time. Hail Caesar!
For something a bit tastier, try

Plenty of stagflation lately. Are we about to do a double dip recession? Sputter along until 2012? Any optimism here?
Hey, I think Google translate has copyright infringed me.

Open thread? Looks like the text have become completely unravelled. 😉
Just flang (past tense of fling?) a few funds. Much gratitude for your continued dedication to this forum of truth, science, and moderation.
Nope Ed, the phony Boston Fed study and four decades of nobly mistaken housing policy have finally tripped over their own hubris, bringing the world down with them. Now, this madness of the crowd called CAGW has sucked all the rest of the capital into a great green hole in the ground with liars at the top.
But China is coming to its senses, and we got a ‘lection next year.
===================
We’ll knit up the ravelled sleeve of care. It’s ravelled, see, though it looks unravelled.

Looks okay on Firefox and on IE 8, but…
When you click “Continue reading →” to go past the fold, the crossed fingers following the instruction to be civil disappears, and the map link goes to the Chico Cemetery. Is that a threat? 🙂
OK S.
Willis was asking for comments for a proposed survey he was building. Anything come of that?

Uh oh, that Goliath Google is infringing; the prudent maneuver, in the immediate:

THE solar power revolution is in danger of stalling, with the State Government admitting the electricity grid is failing to cope with its green vision.
Energy Minister Stephen Robertson confirmed new applications for rooftop solar systems were being rejected in areas where Queensland’s high uptake threatened the safety and reliability of its network.
Thousands of homeowners hoping for promised power savings of up to $540 via a 1.5kW system are in limbo, with those wanting larger systems even being asked to pay more than $20,000 to help cover local upgrades.

In the Sunday Age today there’s an article saying that to achieve carbon reductions we need to turn vegan, and meat producers should be charged for the carbon their animals emit.
“Mahony cites a study by the Dutch Environmental Assessment Agency, which showed a transfer to a completely vegan diet would reduce climate change mitigation costs by about 80 per cent.”

I’ll ruminate on this whilst I fire up the BBQ tonight.
Charles J Hanley is a Pulitzer Prize winning author who writes for the Associated Press. His last article on the web, “The American “allergy’ to global warming, Why?” is filled with misinformation. Why is he unaccountable for misleading readers from a major information source?

Kim…if you want to screw something up,and twist it horribly,you “ravel” it.In other words,the world is ravelled,and only a major uprising will unravell it. Great.Now I’m confused.

From your quoted material: “would reduce climate change mitigation costs”
Did the Dutch EAA say how much it would reduce the temperature?
At lunch today we were in a Korean restaurant and had shared “hot pot” (soup served on a deep Wok type dish with a small gas burner to keep it hot at the table). The gas burner had a label with some Korean and Chinese writing and in bold English it said “Solar Powered”, I had to laugh. I knew that the gas burner was not solar powered, because it was cheap and reliable …
