Plain old fire cannot melt steel . Only a very heavily oxygenated flame can melt steel in the open such as a oxy/acetylene torch or thermic lance , otherwise it has to be melted in a properly insulated furnace with enormous energy input . I am no fan of Rosie O’Donnel I assure you but I assume she is talking about how the substantial number of steel girders that displayed massive melting and even flowing rivers of steel (not Aluminium ) that were seen by many of the firemen during rescue in the collapsed world trade centre , still unexplained and completely ignored to this day .

For how many years have people from all walks of life speculated that poorly insulated electromagnetic radiation causes cancer, especially cell phones and high tension power lines? Yet Behar and Co. think electric cars and other devices are the answer to so called man made climate change. In order to comply with such “goals” there is no way to cheaply manufacturer such devices in order to make conventional devices obselete. On the front end of the supply chain a lot of corners will be cut at the people’s expense.
Also these chuckleheads appear not understand that the Earth had gone through at least four major Ice Ages and a few mini ones to boot, so what caused the climate to change back then??
The Chinese problem is not straw crisis but deforesting. Daily supply of chopsticks for more than 1.5 billion inhabitants consumes a lot of wood.
Sometimes China orders elaborately packed machine parts. The machine parts are thrown away, only the packaging is important: the wooden packing material gives good chopsticks.
Contribution to environmental protection: less deforestation.
“Earth had gone through at least four major Ice Ages and a few mini ones to boot, so what caused the climate to change back then?”
Our late beloved Alberta Premier Ralph Klein suggested that it was caused by dinosaur farts.
That answer is at least as credible as the ones used by the global warming alarmists. None of their very-scary predictions of runaway global warming and wilder weather have materialized – the warmists have been wrong about EVERYTHING. Nobody should believe them.
The great American statistician and philosopher George Carlin explained the appeal of leftist politics as follows:
Carlin said: “Think of how stupid the average person is; and then realize half of them are stupider than that!”
If you’re a stickler, then he’s not actually right, since “average” implies mean, which is not the same as median, where 50% are below and 50% are above.

Joy lives on Bizzaro World along with all the other radical leftists, where everything is backwards.
I think Joy’s delusions have her very stressed out. It must be really scary to believe the things she believes. Too bad she doesn’t realize what she believes is mostly fantasy. She fears imaginary dangers, from climate change and from Trump. She’s gotten herself all worked up for nothing, but doesn’t realize it.
I suppose there is one real danger Trump poses to Joy: Trump is destroying the socialist narrative and undoing the socialist actions of former President Barack Obama. That’s definitely real, but nothing to be afraid of, unless you are a socialist. The rest of us are celebrating the possible destruction of the talking points promoting socialism as a viable option to free markets.

If Biden is going to cure cancer he had better get a move on because he is no spring chicken and research takes time.
A better idea: the billionaires who are putting millions or billions into the next election to secure the presidency for Biden should cut out the middle man and put that money directly into the institutes researching cancer. That way we do not have to wait for elections, congressional approval etc . But maybe curing cancer is not a priority for these people.
A friend of mine who is a bit of a genius with instrumentation spent most of his career devising novel methods of detecting early stage cancer , particularly prostate cancer. At one point he said that despite so much research , eventually diagnosis comes down to a person with a microscope examining cells. He also said that most elderly men, in his experience , die with or of prostate cancer – which was a bit depressing.
mikewaite: It never occurs to Joy or Joe, is this- if Joe Biden can cure cancer, why does he need to be president to get started? If AGW is gonna slow him down, all the more reason to get started NOW! Right?
These folks can do this because the progressive press will never call them on it, or ask if cancer matters when we’ve only got 12 yrs left.
The liberal mind goes something like this:
The only thing stopping Joe from curing cancer is money. As soon as he becomes president he’ll have an infinite supply of money and will be able to do anything he wants.
3) When it inevitably fails, send all records down the memory hole and eventually know one will remember your failure
4) Promise to fix the next big problem after your proven track record of 0 failures.
condensed to “anything [ Joe Biden] wants” is “have an infinite supply of money and will be able to do [ anything he wants]”.

The reason that there will be no cure for cancer? A certain industry [biggest lobby group of all, by coincidence], is raking in untold billions in treatments. Would they want to find a reason to stop this gravy train?
Of course, 100’s of thousands of researchers and doctors let their wifes, husbands, daughter, sons, brothers, sisters, and friends suffer and die, because they’re in on the secret.
1975: For the five most common cancers diagnosed in adults, the 5-year survival rates were: breast, 75%; prostate, 69%; lung, 13%; colorectal, 51%; and bladder, 74%.
As of 2006, the 5-year relative survival rates for the five most common cancers were: breast, 90%; prostate, 100%; lung, 16%; colorectal, 67%; and bladder, 81%
And that’s 13 years ago.
Combination chemotherapy is now standard in the treatment of many cancers and has contributed to increasing survival and cure rates. For example, the introduction of combination chemotherapy that contained the drug cisplatin led to cure rates for testicular cancer of approximately 95 percent. Treatment for this disease has become so effective that 80 percent of patients with metastatic testicular cancer can now be cured. Thirty-five years ago, 95 percent of these patients died, usually within 1 year of diagnosis.
Thus far, three cancer prevention vaccines have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). One of these vaccines, the hepatitis B virus vaccine, has the potential to prevent some forms of liver cancer. The remaining two vaccines are directed against human papillomavirus (HPV) types 16 and 18 and have the potential to prevent approximately 70% of cervical cancers and some other HPV-associated cancers.
In 2010, the FDA approved the first cancer treatment vaccine, sipuleucel-T (http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/druginfo/sipuleucel-T). This vaccine can be used to treat advanced prostate cancer. Several other cancer treatment vaccines are currently being tested in large-scale clinical trials, including vaccines for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer, melanoma, and multiple myeloma.
Therapies that target the specific molecular changes that cause cells to become cancerous and processes that are required for continuous cancer cell growth and survival are now part of our therapeutic arsenal. To date, the FDA has approved approximately 30 molecularly targeted agents for cancer-related indications, including trastuzumab and three different aromatase inhibitors for breast cancer; imatinib mesylate for chronic myelogenous leukemia and gastrointestinal stromal cell tumors (GIST); sunitinib for advanced kidney cancer and imatinib-resistant GIST; bevacizumab for advanced colorectal, non-small cell lung, and kidney cancers; and bortezomib for multiple myeloma and a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
Refined radiation therapy techniques, such as three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy, stereotactic radiosurgery, and brachytherapy (radioactive seeds), which are designed to deliver high doses of radiation to tumors while minimizing the doses delivered to nearby healthy tissue, are now widely used. These advances result in greater tissue, organ, and limb preservation.
Ugh — that youtube image borders on nauseating. Reminds me of that “coffee-talk” character played by Mike Myers on SNL. Except that this lady is definitely not funny.

Solving the plastic straw crisis is probably a more attainable goal.
To solve either of the CO2 or plastic straw crises, one would have to invade China. If not, it is just Western liberal virtue signaling.
The Chinese problem is not straw crisis but deforesting. Daily supply of chopsticks for more than 1.5 billion inhabitants consumes a lot of wood.
Sometimes China orders elaborately packed machine parts. The machine parts are thrown away, only the packaging is important: the wooden packing material gives good chopsticks.
Contribution to environmental protection: less deforestation.
Mostly, the Chinese reuse their chopsticks at home and work and nice restaurants. Sometimes they even wash them.
