Jim - Please sleep on it. If you never post here again, the ones hurt most will be your many friends and admirers.

Hey, Jim, relax !! No one is pissed at you. Take a deep breath and continue posting. Feel free to poke fun and add humor.

God knows, we could use it.

Jim

You can't be serious.

You are an important poster around here. Your reports from a guy actually in the field are invaluable. Please stick around.

Whitepine, on the other hand, is a smug, annoying and boring asshole who occasionally shows up here to say something dumb and irrelevant. Yawnnnnnnnnnnn.

The ignore key is designed for the Whitepines of this world.

Jim, I have had WP on ignore for years. Do the same and forget him. The rest of us need to hear what you have to say.

Blessings,

Whoa!, Jim. Perhaps you can help ME out here? I don't have a dog (nor a cat!) in this dust up....but I'd sure like some clarification from you, a damned good poster to this board, as to why you are suddenly riled up about the Whitepine post you referenced. For the life of me (what's left of it) I can't interpret the meaning of his post, but I sure don't find anything intended to be offensive to you in it? As a matter of fact I'd wager my dollar pocket knife against your best toothpick that NOBODY on this board is inclined to caterwaul about ANY of your posts!

So, take it from an ol' geezer that's been involved in many foodfights on this fine board, that there's no one's careless comments worth losing what I'd classify as one of the most informative and interesting posters on this board, humor and all.

Just a little GitaLong Wisdom from This Side of EIghty, OK?

Buck

jimisjim >>>>Humor vs. political posts on topics proven to inflame the board and not change anyone's beliefs or opinions?<<<

JIMMY....THE RECORD IS CLEAR. ANYONE and everyone can go back and review the posts.

My reply to your public applause of LoneCone's post caught you both in a public contradiction.
===========================================

Now, you want to make the artificial distinction between HUMOR and POLITICAL posts?

I AM NOT MAKING POLITICAL POSTS when I submit serious scientific studies for the board's consideration. In fact, it is telling that NOT one objection or comment has been posted:

1. about Richard Lindzen's latest work, denying the importance of CO2 in the energy/GW debate
or
2. future energy cost estimates under cap/trade of the electric cooperatives ( I listed the source for everyone)

3. corruption of science by major players in the debate about GW and energy consumption. The revelation of the emails, discussed today by the NYTimes/WSJournal, etc., is a topic that I brought to the board's attention.

IT is NOT political to discuss the science of GW because it DOES HAVE an impact on cap/trade and future energy legislation.
==================================
This is not a personal pissing match.
If you want to criticize my posts in a serious manner, then provide the data and logic. Don’t like Lindzen……..make your case. Like Cap/Trade…make the case. These issues do affect energy, just as T. Boone’s initiatives for wind and NG are both political and economic. Even a few ducks has had a dramatic impact on OS production, stock prices, and corporate planning.

If you feel hurt. Sorry. This is a civil board. Want to take you ball and go home….whatever. Most adults can handle greater ‘problems’ without pouting.
