The Colton Gang tends to run off when asked a real question and call you stupid when he can't answer your question.

"Human's live at 10 degrees above 100 and 10 degrees below zero in the ecosystem where they live." Snitch, even an electrical enginear should know that humans are warm blooded animals, ie we have a built in "thermostat" that keeps our body temperature constant. When that thermostat can't control our body temperature and it rises to 103.5 we are in deep do-do. We can live in extreme environments providing we have taken the precautions necessary. We could not live at -10 degrees for very long without proper clothing or shelter. Nor can we live at 110 degrees without some environmental protection. Colton Gang was telling you that the earth doesn't have much of a "built in thermostat", it does'nt have the ability to modify it's own environment. Many humans will not survive a 5 degree rise in the earth's temp. and it won't be because they don't have air conditioning. As I said in another post, I heard a couple of months ago(but have no link), the difference between the Ice Age and the present is about 6 degrees.
