Just a bit burnt out today. Need to take a rest from blogging. Here’s some tidbits from email submissions to chew on though:

Michael Mann -vs- Marc Morano:
Marc writes: Note, i was asked at very end to respond to Mann, but my answer was cut off from air or at least transcript.

I wonder if Mann realizes that , if those threats against him actually happened, they are the result of his ethics and personality rather than anything having to do with his theories.
Bill Nye was the science consultant to movie Flubber (1997).
Enjoy your view of that wonderous mountain (Shasta) and revel in its probable World Record single storm snowpack. I heard it was supposed to get up to 217″ (18′) of snow by monday.
Relax, and have a great weekend!
Something wrong with the Bishop Hill link. Go to BH home page and use the link from there.
Having read through the transcript, I cannot decide if Mann sounds pathetic, paranoid or delusional or a combination of all three.
Marc is going on about “echo chambers” again.
Anthony has published lots of stories about climate scientists disagreeing with each other passionately. So there is no “echo chamber”.
Marc just can’t let that evidence stuff invade his head when it conflicts with stuff he made up.
I hope the videos get linked under the resources tab.
Global warming hysteria is everywhere… including the COP18 conference in Doha, Qatar.
Because of that I wrote this article about Hurricane Sandy that has made so much news at COP18 and other places:

Reblogged this on pindanpost and commented:
burnt out? I am not surprised, Anthony, you have done a brilliant job in getting the truth out there. Your video presentations of the 24 hour live special are very good. Thanks again.
I thought the 256, 512 and 1024 year cycles was interesting (Abstract only available) in this study.
In the mid-latitude regions of the Asian continent, Zhuye Lake is located in the northwest margin of the Asian monsoon, where the modern climate is affected by the Asian monsoon and Westerlies. In this study, we investigated the absolutely dated Holocene records in Zhuye Lake for detecting the Holocene climate cycles. Totally, 14 14C dates and 6 optically simulated luminescence (OSL) dates are obtained from the QTH01 and QTH02 sections. The proxies of grain-size, total organic carbon content (TOC), C/N and δ13C are used for wavelet analysis, and the results show obvious ∼256, ∼512 and ∼1024-year climate cycles, which are consistent with the Holocene millennial and centennial scale climate cycles in the typical Asian summer monsoon domain. In different parts of the Zhuye Lake, the Holocene sediments show variable climate cycles that are affected by the lake basin topography. In the Zhuye Lake, the Holocene climate cycles are mainly correlated with the solar-related Asian summer monsoon variability and the North Atlantic ice-rafting events.

In the original version of Bella ciao the guy just longs for being buried in a grave up on the mountain, shaded by flowers.
I wonder if these Belgian fools knew they were regurgitating a death song.

How does someone go around looking into people’s eyes after claiming they think magic hockey stick scrawls that aren’t real math
are what’s needed to see we need to buy Al Gore Brand Alternative Energy
and shut down civilization for not electing him president
after we use every instrument in the arsenal of mankind’s radar proof, bullet proof, deep-space proof, electronic internet & space age
to check for the largest HEATER in the WORLD, in the sky and find the MAGIC HEATER isn’t there?
With pathologically distorted thinking is how.
People coming on the internet claiming they don’t think there’s a way to check for the rise of infrared light, in the atmosphere, after nitrogen cooled infrared detectors and infrared astronomy worldwide haven’t found any for the entire history of man.
People coming in claiming they think it’s possible for CO2 to have undiscovered heat handling properties after men in nuclear submarines with their finger on the nuclear button for 50 years have been living in submarines with 4,000 ppm CO2 so they don’t have to comb it out –
and all those nuclear, thermodynamic, mechanical, electronic, electrical, hydraulic, engineers, locked into those submarines FIFTY YEARS with 4,000 PPM CO2 and not ONE extra part; not ONE word of observed heat-handling characteristics of air with all that CO2 in it
never noticed a thing but everyone needs to shut down civilization because hicks with sticks said magical treemomiturs indicate it’s never been this hot, AND, that it’s obvious it’s from the MAGIC GAS
HIDING the MAGIC INFRARED LIGHT
from ALL MANKIND.
What kind of mindset do you as an adult or soon to be adult human being, think operates with that kind of quack-factor in their mind?
Re-read everything and ask yourself where in the world, hillbillies form worthless scrawls yielding hockey sticks from calibration data
then put that scrawl forth as part of a ‘whole separate branch of mathematics’ and THEN tell people ‘caint reed it caws awl yew wawnt too doo is find sumthin rong withit.’
It’s crime and it’s criminality masking itself as ‘belief’. Political ‘belief.’
It’s crime.
Phillip Bradley,
Since the 256, 512, and 1024 cycles “correspond” with the base 4/16 (English) memory modules in your computer, surely it must be an artifact.

Your ears are not working, and you seem to be mumbling. You should see a doctor.
the games people play….”Pinata Planet Syndrome”
also in Spanish….”El sindrome del planeta Pinata”
when your opponent refuses reason….resort to ridiclule
FWIW, the new fonts are freaking me out.

Interesting tweet that has just hit the ether. From Brian Sussman
@Brian_Sussman: UN admits at Qatar climate talks that there has been NO global warming for the last 16 years!
Bill H,
Seriously hope you don’t think 18′ of snow (it won’t be that much) is unusual for a weeklong storm period on Mt. Shasta. Part of the candybottomed hysteria that pervades. I watch the weatherbeautifulpeople on tv (as I walk by) discussing the pinapple express. Those kids have never seen a real PE. In 1983 satellite images were pretty new to tv and you had to pay a princely fee to get them privately. The PE set up as a couple hundred mile wide band SW of Hawaii aimed straight at the Golden Gate. Three days of torrential rains like the hardest of the current series. BTW, the last of series storm cued up for tonite will dissapoint. Synoptics are all wrong. Quoting the NWS “scientific forecaster” on duty,
“a large area of light
to moderate rain just off the California coast continues to move
east toward the region. This area of precipitation is coming in at
least 3 hours earlier than any model forecast. This is a bit concerning…”
Not concerned. It will leave early too.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
LOL. The reference was to the way things were among the climate science “team” members before ClimateGate.
Of course you knew that…. you were just hoping the rest of us didn’t?
BTW, I don’t think you meant to do this, but you just admitted that the science is NOT settled. Do you still get paid your regular troll fees when you screw up and go off message like that?
