Okay, if Avery is funded by Monsanto, Exxon, etc. and that makes his 
position questionable and information suspect, help me understand who 
finances Mr. Gore's position and how he does or doesn't benefit 
financially from his writing, speaking and movie making? Any idea how 
much his speaking fee is?

Real logical fallacy on your part, Bridget, but what the heck most 
every tenet of the global warming deniers is based on a lala land 
view of the world and the ability to  deny what they see with their 
own eyes and instead enjoy falling back on a number of logical 
fallacies such as attacking straw men (and woman).

   Here's a few easy steps to finding out if you are a pod person 
(someone who lives in a pod, no doubt air-conditioned, where they 
never look at or consider the real world) and instead are global 
warming deniers.


Are you denying the objective data showing the world's temperatures 
are getting warmer?

Are you denying the objective data that the world's ice packs are 
rapidly disappearing?

Are you denying the data showing the effects of burning massive 
amounts of coal?

Are you denying the effect of  humans running hundreds of millions of 
atmospheric heaters  (automobile engines) each and every day?

Are you denying the objective data that thew world is significantly 
warmer where humans exist in concentration  (cities) as opposed to 
where they aren't as concentrated?

Are you denying that the human population has doubled in our (well at 
least my) lifetime with the concomitant increase in heating, food 
production, transportation, clothing, housing needs?

Are you denying the millions of tons of exhaust  from the massive 
engines needed to transport the millions of large aircraft that are 
in the worlds skies at any moment?

Are you denying the effect of the hundreds of millions of tons human 
biological waste that are dumped into the worlds oceans and rivers 
every hour?

Are you denying the effect of human activity that that modifies the 
worlds ecosystem by  covering soil with asphalt, concrete and other 
non water absorbing materials and instead of the water being absorbed 
into the soil and then evaporated back into the air it now runs off 
through drainage systems into rivers where  it is deposited into the 
salt laden oceans?

And those are only a few of the engines of global warming so instead 
of denying your own eyes lets start thinking about what can be done 
to not pollute our own nest.

(I imagine the argument that says that Avery is funded by the oil and 
coal industry besides being based on objective truth is the complete 
amazement on the part of some people wondering how anyone can be as 
silly as Avery and his cohorts are in their arguments. Their thoughts 
must run something like  'no one can really be as stupid and mindless 
as Avery appears to be.'  Instead they assume he's not a moron and 
that he is in the pay of the people making money out of pollution. 
Me, I think he's really that dumb.  I think he really believes the 
childish gibberish that comes out of his mouth and word processor. 
My question, though, is: are the people that print his stuff also 
that stupid?  or are they along for the ride looking for a good laugh 
to see if anyone out there will actually take what he says seriously. 
I think his writings are a real roar,  sort of on the lines of The 
Onion).
