Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Why the climate industry has been losing support

It's not just because there is no warming. Here's a bunch of emails along with a summary, including quotes like this classic:



 “I’ve just completed Mike’s [Mann] Nature trick of adding in the real temps to each series for the last 20 years (i.e. from 1981 onwards) and from 1961 for Keith’s [Briffa] to hide the decline.” Dr. Phil Jones, Director of the Climatic Research Unit, disclosed Climategate e-mail, Nov. 16, 1999

So it's all a lie or a "trick"!! Who could have seen that coming?

If the climate industry is losing support it is sure taking a long time to wind down. The windmills continue to roll down the highway past my house.

Wasn't there a song by the Traveling Wilburys called "Hide the Decline"? Oh, wait, it was called "End of the Line." Never mind.....

The biggest reason is because the people don't see it as a problem.

Look over the responses Gallup got to the question, "What do you think is the most important problem facing the country today?".

The real reason is that it's a "manufactured" problem and people now see it for what it is.

Quote-mining.

It is all due to the inertia (great and vast and massive) of the bureaucracies that feed on it.
