Wait, since when did Altima take your title of the stupidest person on this forum Pleebo?
I mean, if you couldn't tell the obvious sarcasm without having somebody to hold your hand and tell you what a good job you are doing while you read it and afterwards, and then were told AFTERWARDs about the obvious sarcasm, then I don't think your title is in danger anytime soon.

So when I say I'm scared about global warming I'm hiding in my basement watching An Inconvenient Truth on loop.

You know, it's kindof sad to have a parody clip from a TV show as part of your argument on an issue.

....I used to collect pennies from the 1980's and sell them for 25c in elementary school as spider-warding tokens. My money-back guarantee stated that as long as the spider wasn't threatened, it wouldn't attack so long as you held the token.
I bought so many micro-machines with my profits. Even the sweet-as-*** Night Attack! playset.
Well, that just proves that stupid people will buy into anything.
..oh wai...

Didn't actually expect you to fall for a baited strawman.

What, and you don't think that stupid people don't make stupid decisions?
Wisdom isn't necessarily related to intelligence, although it often is.
Too bad there isn't either in this thread.
An intelligent man learns from his mistakes. A wise man learns from the mistakes of others.
Stupid people also happen to think they are not stupid, nor make stupid decisions. Intelligent people will on chance realize they did something stupid and own up to said moment of stupidity. Which is the crux of the problem. Kruger-Dunning tends to the be case more often than not.

I am not saying we are not crapping all over the Earth, we certainly are. I just get beyond pissed when people present a "report" to me, expect me to take their word for it because a bunch of PhDs worked on it, and word it in such a way that it is already proven fact. They pass this sh#t off to the masses who they know can't wade through or in most cases even comprehend the resources they cite. I am also kind of sick of professionals using Student's t test as though it is the holy grail of statistical hypothesis testing. Dear god...there are better more sophisticated tests out there.
That was beautiful.

Something tells me that a good portion of "global warming" skeptics are unlikely to reverse their stance regardless of what or how research is presented.

God intends things to get warmer. He's cold up in Heaven. Because Terrorists turned down his thermostat after Pompeii.

How should they go about reporting this to the masses in a way that you would accept as something more palatible?

It's like you saying that there is life on a different world within 40 light years away just by looking up in the sky. I'm sorry if I'm going to be skeptical with your "findings" if you don't give undeniable proof.
I have to wonder. KN, how's living on Planet 51?

No. I don't think it's at all like that.

I did my own research on global warming turns out I need a better hobby.

I can see Pleebo carrying all of us stoopids on his shoulders, like atlas... except not in a tidy spherical mass but just a huge pile of writhing idiotic bodies trying to wrestle themselves free so they can fall into a pit of lava...
