I realized what is causeing global warming. It is the waste heat from welding. with the economic downturn less welding has occured therefore the globe is cooling. The runaway warming only started after welding became a majof factor in construction! ;D

That is why he is now into Wind Turbines,to atone for his sins,for causing GW through nefarious welding activities!

Re: Who am I?
Non traditional student who returned to college, Western Carolina University,  after a very long absence, to study Environmental Science.  I am up against a lot of Al Gore worshipers.  I have to stay informed.

Along with my interest in learning about real climate science, I have a long time interest in alternate energy, solar wind, and micro hydro, along with fuel cells, alternate methods of hydrogen production, and photosynthesis.

I just landed an internship through U.S. Department of Energy, at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory,  Sequim, Washington,  Marine Sciences Laboratory, doing work on microalgae for biofuels. 

My permanent home is the Great Smoky Mountains, in a tiny home town, where the corn made into alcohol is not used for fuel but for medicinal purposes.

I live due north of the Smokies on Norris lake  where Clinch River runs under 25E. It is good to have anoter Mountain person at the site. My cousin was a corn man in his early years and my dads father was involved in locating the refineries ( STILLS) and disableing them.

What can I say I don't do anything in a conventional manner.  I might point out that the four year old was the only planned event.

I have been a welder/fabricator for 25 years now.  
My biggest secret is I have applied for a job with a company that make wind turbines.  
I'll have a green job so I will be better than all of you.  ;D

Question..
Will it get you through to retirement though. ?
Joke..
Oh, and please do not claim in the near future that the cooling the globe will probably be experiencing is due to
all your hard work building wind turbines..  ;D
I'm sure you will beaten to that by the politicans anyway.. :Smile
[/quote]

Derek I hope so.  I am completely aware that I have more days behind me than ahead.  I have been working for a family owned interest.  Now that the owners kids are getting involved I just don't like where the business is headed.  My town is a pretty depressed town.  Always has and always will.  If you are not of the union mentality then pretty much screwed.  The company coming into Pueblo is a European company.  It is the best new chance to come to this area in a long time.  If it doesn't last for 15 years I think I will still be in a better position then if I stayed where I am.  I have had the same thoughts as you, but they are investing a ton of money in this facility so I think they will be around for awhile.

Not only the heat involved but the cover gas I use is a CO2/argon mix.  So my carbon footprint is more than most.  Tongue

Welcome aboard!

That is funny because YOU are already more educated than Al Gore,yet he is followed around like a puppy despite that he is the most debunked climate alarmist in the entire world! While you have to work hard to voice any rational skepticism of AGW hypothesis in their presence.

This is why skeptical forums like this one was created for the general public,to help those who are honestly looking some valid science information.To ask questions and discuss them in a forum format.

With your science background,you are in a position to explicate information to the public who lack a science background to figure it out by themselves.That is why I have a "Worthy article's to read" thread designed for those who want a fairly easy to understand science presentation to read.To promote better skeptics who are reading information from a more scientific standpoint.

Hopefully you can help us to educate the public who are still looking for climate science information.

AGW is a hypothesis that cannot be falsified is supported by falsified evidence.

Re: Who am I?
I am a controller in private industry. Got my BS in accounting, MBA, and now over a decade later, I just passed the CPA exam.

At home, I'm married with two daughters, ages 3 & 11 months. I currently reside in Germantown, TN.

I started scrapping with AGW believers on the internet over six years ago. I was so irate over a crossword puzzle on the side of a pint-sized carton of milk (intentionally targeting kids) that I started a website called "anti-environmental.com," which was an over-the-top cheap-shot at everything environmental. I shut it down years ago out of frustration that no scientists would step up to the mic. That wouldn't happen for another two or three years.

I later moved my forum I started to another domain name, which I still run. But I'm about to shut it down as I gear up for something completely different: a comic strip. I wanted to do it when I started anti-environmental.com, but it was going to be too difficult to manage. Today's software, however, makes it easy. I think this is better approach for an overly facetious character like myself.

I refer to AGW as the first cyberwar of the information age. Maybe history will record it differently, I dunno. But I've tried a few different things, and I've decided that this is where I can be most effective.

Sad that I've concluded that a comic strip can be more effective than actual science, but hey, that's the world that we....

...OMG!!! Michael Jackson is out on the street singing "Thriller!!!" And he's dead!!! OMG!!!

You get what I'm saying. MJ's death trumped the largest tax increase in American history. Facts don't have the influence that they once did.

In short, I still need to vent from time to time, so I'll be around. But I also need to laugh at the whole thing. Maybe we all need to. After all, when you look at the total picture of AGW & realize what we're all being asked to believe, you have to just laugh at how absurd it is.

When I start rolling out the comics, I'll post a link. I'm shooting for September 1st. Until then, I'll be lurking around here.

Re: Who am I?
Welcome to the forum.

I am pleased that you still working on a new fight against the absurdity that AGW is.An area not commonly considered in the fight against the environmentalist lies and deliberate misrepresentations they spew out.I hope it works out for you.

Can you make a post at your forum asking your members to come here,before you shut down the forum? It looks like I will no longer be able to post there soon,I did two this morning.

When your new cartoon based forum comes around,you are invited to post here telling us about it.

We have a section here for climate cartoons too and another one for political cartoons as well.Maybe you can post in them once in a while?

Well anyway glad to see you here.

I've already told them I'm not paying for their weddings. The baby seemed to be fine with it, but I had to buy the other one off with a bowl of chocolate ice cream.

Yeah, they tell you about the terrible twos, but they never tell you the threes are far worse.  :o
