Y2Kyoto: I’ll Miss The Great Barrier Reef

I know all of you will be surprised that an organism which survived the dinosaur killer has has shown an unexpected ability to cope with a degree of global warming over the last 172 years.

Well..at least when the world becomes a scorching hot desert as im told to believe….i will still be able to go swimming and see the Great Barrier!!

Its all about seeing the silver linings right?

Nature finds a way.

The CAGW idiots need to read more Michael Crichton … may I suggest “State of Fear”? Hint: it’s principles apply to government-fabricated pandemics as well.

Professor Peter Ridd, head of the physics department of James Cooke University, was ignominiously booted out after threatening the gravy train that is the “endangered” Great Barrier Reef. Science has become so corrupted by politics and money that one cannot trust the statements of alleged scientists. What was once viewed as one of the highest callings has been brought low to the level of politician or used car salesman.

According to Patrick Moore, the GBR thrives in warmer water than today’s temperature and is now its current shrunken expanse because of cooler water temperatures. But don’t let a little reality spoil the hysteria-pimping profiteer’s orgy.

I’ve snorkeled the Great Barrier Reef. It’s the only part of the ocean that smells like suntan lotion 24/7 – the ocean. And the rotting food tourists leave in the water after feeding the fish? I’m sure that helps the coral too. The only thing missing from the Great Barrier Reef is an escalator. Well, neon signs too, as long as they are powered by green energy and not the coal ships crossing nearby.

The urge to pick a chaotic system problem and jam it into the computer model boondoggle is overwhelming.. They are guessing after all..

Imagine writing a computer program for something that had no definitive answer. Endless upgrades, improvements, faster hardware, conferences. Someone did their homework, and we are still paying.

  That description sounds like it might have wider application.
  
  Our boys have a friend here who has a new John Deere tractor with a problem – JD don’t have an ID on the error code it has thrown.
  
  Another friend says that is not the only one but didn’t say if from more than one manufacturer.
  
  My suggested guess is that is what you get if you let AI write your software.

I had a friend who went ballistic (and shortly after went away) when I made light of his great stress over this. I mean, I like coral as much as the next guy, but as with white mountain tops, it’s not something to which I assign great value. Of course I had to bait him with my dismissive nonchalance. I mean, I love watching liberal heads explode as much as the next guy.

I was tempted to forward this but demurred. At 73 I am beginning to acquire a little wisdom.
