How anyone could have been so slow is beyond me.
(Being so slow, however, is not.)
on the bright side, i have learned a lot along the many scenic byways.

New policy re climate contrarianism comments as of 11/11/2009:
Comments questioning the climate science community's understanding of climate change (97% of active climatologists now believe that the earth is currently warming and that it's human-caused - link) will be deleted unless the commenter:
a) is local
b) uses his real name
c) provides link(s) to substantiate his claim(s)/inference(s)
d) is willing to collaborate on constructing an argument tree, to get us past the usual sterile point-counterpoint-countercounterpoint.
(For people who can't read the above, a summary:
1) Be civil;
2) Don't post w/o giving at least a pseudonym;
3) Don't espouse climate-denial crankery unless you're local and willing to stand behind it.)
Caveats:
1. Comments could be delayed: they are being moderated, and I'm sometimes away from the computer for a day or more.
2. : Perfectly legitimate comments are sometimes miscategorized (by the blogging platform) as spam, & not published. If this happens to yours, please notify me, else I might not notice for a day or two.
The five Ws and one H of journalism are said to be a formula for reporting a story completely. These are the answers to the questions "Who?", "What?", "When?", "Where?", "Why?, and "How?"
ReplyDeleteThis report seems short on "What?" and the remainder appear to be completely absent. Please do tell the whole story.
Thank you.
I'd be delighted to talk to you in person, Michael. Let's get together for coffee.
ReplyDeleteFYI to readers - no response from Michael to my invitation; he's one of the local fellows uncomfortable with face-to-face meetings.
