I will be tactful. WiFi is a wireless local area network. For example, my WiFi network is connected to a DSL telephone line upstairs. My 'router' has an antenna on it so I am able to sit comfortably on this here couch with a laptop in my lap and my dog sleeping by my side sending this post...

Historically CO2 has been a lot higher--even during ice ages. The thing is, when CO2 is high, plants grow bigger. The Earth is more lush with vegetation. You can grow more food. If upu've got 10 billion people in the world, that might be a good thing to think about. But furthyer, IPCC has...

I don't even pretend to understand that. I just notice that the issue raised is being evaded. I'm not the one who brought up the subject of CIA/National Enquirer originally. You were. So if there is any drift off topic, you provided the origin by making that unsubstantiated claim. Topics drift...

Me, too! They make my mouth itch like a summbitch. I think it's the arsenic (Peaches and almonds, too) Cooked, their okay, but I still don't like them.

I'm inclined to believe that. My cousin, son of my Evangelical Uncle, was an air force officer and is very evangelical. He went to the air force academy where, I have heard, the evangelicals have a very large presence. But he was even too radical for them. He made Lt. Col. and was not promoted...

Had that happen, too. When we first automated our library with barcodes we received a very articulate letter from a patron who wanted to be removed from the database because barcodes were the sign of the beast. And that brings up a point. When I say this letter was articulate, I mean erudite...

But you have absolutely no proof whatsoever, and I have shown you categorically that the 'proof' (the 'documented proof') is non-existant. I have shown you where that 'documented proof' came from, how it was 100% speculative, how it has been contradicted by documented facts, and how it morphed...

I think you have to be very careful when suggesting that a certain number of people 'believe' in something (like the rapture.) I say this from personal experience. I just happen to know quite a few Mormons and Catholics. I grew up in a neighborhood where there was a large Catholic population...

Assuming you are not being tongue in cheek, the National Enquirer/CIA connection is not well documented at all. It comes from Terry Hansen's book 'Missing Times' where he muses that such a connection might be possible based on the fact that Gene Pope (interesting that it's the same last...

Google Earth might be a tad better. I know you can construct 'kml' files that can be passed around. All you do is load the kml file and the sites would appear. Of course, someone has to do the initial work. Are you volunteering? :-)

The issue of 'wiping Israel off the map' is rather more complicated than that. It actually originated in Iran and was a quote of what Kohmeni once said. It can't possibly be 'wipe off the map' because there is no such idiom in Farsi, the Iranian language. But Iranians trying to translate the...

It is a bit odd, but I've seen it before. In fact, one person asked me to do that and I kind of ignored him. I'm glad I did because he's actually quite good!

You see? There IS a human side to Jose! :)

I remember reading that the head on Communion was an artist's conception that had no basis in reality. That came up a few months ago. I'll never be able to track the reference.

For those of you who don't have the patience to wade through somethiong like (the very good) Hockey Stick Illusion, here's a ten page PDF by Steve McIntyre, the guy who dissected the hockey stick, which he wrote in conjunction with the probe of CRU that is now taking place in Britain. Thjis...

It's a darned good thing I don't know where you live. I about had a heart attack!

You guys are killing me! Stop before I snort coffee all over the keyboard.

Where do you get tinfoil these days? All I can find is aluminum foil and my hat is getting a little ragged around the edges.

Ha ha! I had kind of a similar experience, though not with Photoshop. I was in graduate school in the early seventies when they decided, inexplicably, to offer us a class in BASIC, using punched cards and teletype machines on a CDC 6000 at the UW (same computer Bill Gates used as a teenager.)! I...

This below is from EUReferendum by 'Richard.' Considering my last post, I thought this was a good example of what I was talking about. These guys are Brits and primarily kind of anti-EU in their outlook, i.e.: Climategate is not their primarty concern, but they do often write about it in the...
