True, to a point. It only takes a couple of bribed politicians to write this law.

But, how many scientists would have to be bribed to make the opposite argument? Thousands upon thousands of them. There isn't just a couple of studies and papers that have come to this conclusion. There are thousands of them that have, and not all looking at the problem from the same point of view or using the same data set.

That's why I don't buy that argument.

We can't even get straight up reports anymore without wondering if the data's been manipulated.


All data is manipulated in one way or another, to filter out noise. This is the process that most anti-climate change people jump on without bothering to understand the process and exactly why it's done.

Yes, there are those that have gone too far when manipulating data. Those are outnumbered by the thousands of others who didn't.

Straw Poll

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
