p>Russell Seitz adds another data point to C. V. Crisler’s 99%
theory. Confusing the value of useful, predictable, repeatable
science with non-predictive computer models and “just so” stories
is the sign of a sane mind. Trying to camouflage this with the
errors of the ancients seems deranged. Ironically Aristotle’s
problems were a bad model and ignoring all inconvenient data. If a
government funding stream was involved, the parallel with many
modern scientists would be complete. By the way, we are suffering
through a colder than average winter so far but only a crazy person
would use evidence like this to demonstrate a long-term trend in
such a noisy system. I hope the weather continues to be mild in
Cambridge.

A former Howard Dean and John Kerry supporter, Brooke Moore recently learned about Ron Paul from her brother. She became a supporter of Paul for his "foreign policy stance and his monetary policy." Like many others campaigning for Paul, however, canada goosethe ills of the major cities in the lammunity have been poorly served by decades of black leadership. They continue to reelect the very people whose policies keep them in poverty. No debate presence is going to change that. The MSM.
