People send me stuff. Today I got one of the most ridiculous pieces of hate mail, ever, from some fool in Belgium who can’t seem to figure out that what he’s ranting about has already been claimed. On the WUWT contact page it says this, apparently he can’t/won’t read.
So, here is what he sends.
Great way to convince somebody of your position, huh?
100% proven? Apparently he hasn’t seen all the “science is settled” claims made about AGW. Dude, get with the program.

Where you going to hide at Tony?! Maybe on a beach with a margarita?
“a margarita?”
And a laptop. There’s another scam coming after CAGW. Sorry for the bad news.

Belgium.
Really, I’m only half assed, not asswhole.
There is a large number of people like this in europe. The Dutch jealously guard greenpiss, the french are 80% convinced that AGW and dangerous warming are real as do the germans and spaniards.
Yeah, but the average concern level over “global warming/climate change” is roughly 12.8% among 17 of the most prominent countries in the world.
https://yougov.co.uk/news/2016/01/29/global-issues/
In France (from above survey) out of all the issues that concern it’s citizens, citizens ranked their concern with climate change at 12.3%.
Germany-12.2%
Denmark-16.2
Give these numbers to Cook and the rank rise to “197%”. Globally.

Western Europe yes, not so much the East.
Good of you to share this, Anthony. A bit of sunshine helps dry up the rot. Would “better out than in” also be an apt expression?
I was thinking of the response being along the lines of Rick’s reply to the N@zis in Casablanca, when they asked him if he could imagine them in London:
“When you get there, ask me.”
I was thinking the same thing about full blown alarmists. What happens when they find out AGW is no problem at all, that the Sun really does control the climate and we’re entering a new little ice age?
The deeper they are invested, the greater the cognitive dissonance.
I’m beginning to think that just like we wiggled from the coming ice age of the 70s to the sweltering nemesis of CAGW, there will be a mass movement to into CO2 in a “sustainable” fashion. This whole greening the world is a happy thing and likely to appeal to the movements.
Get in early. Anoint a few early investors, get the UN involved. Maybe develop it as a peace driven initiative to green the middle east.
If he’s in Belgium, then he probably works for the EUSSR. That would account for his rant.
At times like these I always think of General Armistead’s probably-apocryphal remark from the excellent movie “Gettysburg”:
“All science trembles at the searing logic of your fiery intellect. “
Mark, if it’s ever “100% proven” then I’m sure Anthony will be sending Mann 2 calendars a year.
He might even send you one!
Well, Anthony, I do so hope you feel suitably chastised … ?
This thread emphasises the inordinate time and effort required to answer trolls which was the cause of other blogs turning off comments.
Anthony isn’t answering this guy. We are. And we’re having a bit fun doing it.
This thread is one of many, and what other blogs do doesn’t really matter to anyone here either.
That letter from Mark Broeckx is highly amusing in a pathetic way. I think that Anthony could develop a very interesting section containing just similar abusive correspondence. It would be amusing if not illuminating.
As Einstein is purported to have said:
“Only two things are infinite, the Universe and human stupidity, and I’m not sure about the former.”
Standard fare for climate scammers. I’ve had lots of similar ones on f/b. They run for cover when I ask for evidence to support their nonsense.
What I find troubling is that people such as Mark Broeckx are free to walk our streets, presumably unaccompanied.
They have little choice. They can’t find their way home.
Looks to me as if Mark has forgot to take his medication…..
Mark Broeckxvich, at one time Anthony was a believer. (Maybe a better word would be “accepter”?)
Then he took a close look one of the pillars of its foundation, the surface stations themselves. (You know, where the numbers that make up GISS come from?) To say the numbers from many, many (did I say “many” yet?) of them that went into GISS, one of the pillars of CAGW, is built on sand would give the false impression that they are firmer than they are.
Even “believers” know that. Otherwise, why would they keep “adjusting” them?
(Anthony, if I’ve gotten something wrong here, please correct me.)
You shouldn’t have blurred out his email address so we could respond with email…
He has more character than that.
(Now if he was Hillary and the email was classified……)
You can send him a message here – I just have

I think its this Mark Boeckx – scroll down his facebook postings and CO2 starts getting a lot of mentions

A 1,000 watt bulb on a 2 watt wind/solar grid budget. You just wait ’til they get a windy and sunny day in Belgium! He’s gonna unload all 5 watts across your bow!
When I lived in Belgium in the 80’s it was difficult working out street directions because the street signs were in dual language, Belgian French and Flemish. So, it ended up with the French speaking Belgians spraying out the Flemish name of a street and the Flemish speaking Belgians spraying out the French name of a street. I never knew where I was going, but could always find a pub and a place to get some friets and mayo!
Maybe this “Mark” is lost?
Anthony does have this bad habit of being annoying right all the time — Eugene WR Gallun
There are lots of Nutticelli’s out there – Wild people who believe in wild weather. Inciters of the Warmist Brown Shirts.
Over a decade ago, I wrote an article in the National Post, saying that Canada should not ratify the Kyoto Protocol.
I soon received an angry, threatening email from someone who held me personally responsible for the flooding of the Prague.
I replied:
Dear Sir, you are entirely correct.
I am the One fully responsible for the flooding of Prague.
Now “run along”, or I’ll do it again.
I feel like, y’know, under-appreciated, like TOTALLY! I mean, like, y’know, some of my friends have received like, numerous threats. And all I got was one lousy Nutticelli? Am I not worthy of like, multiple threats? Like, I mean, y’know: Have I not tried like, hard enough?
