Shows you just how much he’s fallen off the radar, Gore’s harshest critic even forgot about it. I had to be reminded. From my Inbox today:
Climate Champion–
It’s finally here! 24 Hours of Reality: The Cost of Carbon is starting in a few minutes.
Click here to make sure you don’t miss a beat.
And don’t forget to take part in the largest-ever conversation on carbon pollution on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ with the hashtag #CostOfCarbon and by using the Cost of Carbon tool.
We’re looking forward to spending the next 24 hours talking about the solution that can change the course of our future with various experts, celebrities, scientists, and most of all, you.
Hope you’ll join us!
The Climate Reality Team
Watch, don’t watch, point and laugh, anything goes. Not many are paying attention, though I’m sure we’ll see the same sort of stats laundering we saw last year.
Readers are welcome to post some of the most ridiculous claims made in the CRP here.

Couldn’t bring myself to help their viewer count. All the word plays that came to mind have been done. Forcing my way through AIT just to see what was being said was more Gore than I want in my head. Nevermore.
October 22/23 is Gore’s Day.
October 24 is World Tripe Day (true).
Al Gore has no shame. After “Inconvenient Truth,” I could not watch anything by Gore.
With that big of a folowing, maybe Obama should have asked the inventor of the Internet to help with the rollout of the ObamaCare website.

Me, too (or Oss Qss’ great post of Inofe at 6:51pm — thanks OQ!).

Hey, Tom J, (re: 6:14pm) I think I know why you’re out in the snow looking at “comparables.” If I’m right, I am so sorry. Just in case (and God knows what it is, so I prayed He would apply the prayer per reality), I just prayed for you (and for your health, too). Hang in there. Take it one day at a time and know that a new, happier, chapter will begin. It’s just a matter of time. Take care, super-cool WUWT poster. (and in case I don’t get to say it closer to the day (I already attempted to after you had abandoned the thread a week or so ago) — HAPPY HALLOWEEN! — it IS a great holiday — so much fun). J.
@ur momisugly Henry III, (7:51pm) — lol, good one — and, I think they did… .

Thanks. Actually I wasn’t looking at ‘comparables’ for anything other than property tax issues. Thanks for the concern though. And guess what; Al Gore’s not visiting this area so that’ll keep the snow away for a little bit. But it is coming.
I’d have to be dead bored to be Gored
Second listen–same recordings.
Also same agreeing comments–they’re CANNED! Not real!
And this time, I am not the only one telling the truth.
The good news is that I know I’ll have no problem falling asleep tonight.
I’ll just turn on his channel and I’ll be sleeping in no time. ;-))
Shall I tell Al and friends, that doom is coming soon?
Our primeval myths talk of walking trees, OK I just made that up blame Tolkien, but if one was to dress up the fantasy that trees are currently immobile and speechless, in a hibernation state due to a shortage of CO2 in their air.
And when the dark evil engines of modern civilization, bring atmospheric co2 levels up to, say 457.25 ppm, the trees will awake from this comatose state and go forth to destroy the works of man.
Absolute rubbish, but I believe this doom scenario could be sold to the cult.
A couple of science-cy reports in Nature, a few fearful AP reports and a new myth is of and running.
Some official looking statements of killer plants in commercial greenhouses and the myth becomes a new truth of the anti humanists eco-cultists.
Maybe, true to form, Gore got the techies to set the view counter to 17.501 million and they’re decrementing.
He’s such a crafty old fool.
Well — phew! — glad to hear that, Tom J. You men (head shake). “Personal issues” used cryptically has a completely different connotation for me. Hope all goes well. Thanks for taking the time to respond. J. Moore

In other news I just bought a Jaguar V8 XJR. Picking it up next week. Screw you, climate wonks 🙂
@ur momisugly Andy Cool! And, congratulations, good for you.
(can’t brag about a neat ride, but…. I, too, thumb my nose at the Envirostalinists: I drive a low-geared Chevy Suburban into which I put non-ethanol gas (get it from Cenex) AND which gets less than 15 miles to the gallon around town.
—- and I accelerate sharply and drive FAST whenever I can. (That is, when I’m not behind some control freak like I was last Thursday evening — on the back of her stupid car were 3 bumper stickers: “Drive 25 (that’s 40km/hr!)” — “Buy organic” — forgot the third, I’m sure it was edifying).
Bwah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, haaaaaaaaaaaa!
Doing my part to keep the planet green — literally.
Anthony, is there a way we can track this and his previous 24 hour blurbage with viewer comments and compare? Would make a great post.

“October 24 is World Tripe Day”
Now that’s funny!
Tripe beats Gore any day.
I’d rather eat tripe than lunch with Gore.
Gore wouldn’t make good tripe.
The “Cost of Carbon Tool” is appalling. It lists ordinary cyclones that have hit Samoa and Australia as if they were somehow a result of “Carbon”. They list cyclone Ilui which hit Queensland in 2010 and they claim it killed one person. Aside from the fact that a single death seems not so severe, the death in fact was a teenage competitor in a surf life saving event held during the large swell generated by Ilui so I think it is pretty far fetched to attribute that death the “Carbon”! What a load of CR(a)P!

Christiana Figueres”
This UN official has openly stated that the bush fires currently raging here in New South Wales, Australia, are linked to climate change. Her science qualifications in relation to climate change are? ZIP!
Adam Bandt, Green MP, Victoria has blamed the fires on Abbotts plan to repeal the carbon tax.
Fifty is the new thirty ( or other variations ) and Carbon is the new Jew.
It’s a Brave New World!
I can’t help but think of some silicon-based sci-fi villain looking down and saying “Carbon-based lifeforms are polluting this planet!”
It’s life.
Tom J, as Dave Barry would say, “Al and the Foreclosettes” would be a good name for a band.
