A new dawn indeed...

No

hang on, 10 of the warmest years on record since 1998... how is that not an indication that the planet is still warming? It seems you like to take an each way bet... the IPCC are worth nothing when predicting warming, yet all of a sudden they are experts when they agree there is an hiatus?

You keep asking that, but can you in turn explain why globally, the 10 warmest years on record have occurred since 1998, which I believe puts them right in the midst of your hiatus.

Geeez, poor old Saty can't take a trick!!

As someone who has had the pleasure of meeting TDI and his lady, I would suggest that some of the snipers get along to training and introduce themselves and know the person... it might do wonders for their perception of the man rather than the poster. I know most of the comments are said in good humour, but there are a few that are definitely beyond the pale.

Winners

One of the best goals I can recall seeing... not the strike, but the effort to put it in that position. Astounding!!

Very lucky to be leading though... S Korea have had a few very near misses and most of the play. Perfect timing though, going into half time with the lead.

And even more remarkable is that he has been dead for 35 of those years!

That would be one of these I suppose...

Yet isn't it you who is placing so much importance on the 12 year (or however long it is) hiatus?

Seems Roos isn't the only one with a cherry picker... many of the skeptics use one to get at the pieces of info that suit. Anyway, if I'm not mistaken, Ben is back as the wrecker.

Well, you wouldn't need vinegar.

I hadn't realised that Ben was a Whelan fan.

I would have thought that as he has not yet played an AFL season game yet, Hogan should possibly be included in the list of new recruits, despite the fact that he is not really "new"?

And I never once suggested you did... it was a comment on why the thread starting post was rubbish; tonatopia is possibly the only poster to have given enyaw a run for their money.

Well, it was tonatopia

The best kind.

Bump... worth revisiting in conjunction with today's thread re the club song.

Wasn't there a similar post last year? Might be worth dragging it up and merging... it had a lot of good info as well.

Interesting, because according to the general summary of the IPCC's 5th Assessment Report which was released last year: General Warming of the atmosphere and ocean system is unequivocal. Many of the associated impacts such as sea level change (among other metrics) have occurred since 1950 at rates unprecedented in the historical record. There is a clear human influence on the climate It is extremely likely that human influence has been the dominant cause of observed warming since 1950, with the level of confidence having increased since the 4th report IPCC pointed out that the longer we wait to reduce our emissions, the more expensive it will become

As opposed to the group think faith in shock jocks?

Correction, real hipster's SAY they've visited places such as Machu Pichu,Mexican beer factories and Scottish archeological digs.

I would think he is setting himself up for a tilt at "Leader of the Opposition". And I have to say he is doing a sterling job thus far.
