Science was not a strong subject for me and I am certainly not qualified to pass judgment on the hard data and the cases for or against anthropomorphic (man-made) global warming.  Yet I also realize that most of the pundits that express such strong opinion on the subject know just as little about the science [...]]]></description>

Studying the financial bubbles we can see several common characteristics.
During the bubble inflation we see markets taken to an extreme by financial greed, but as Walter Sowell so appropriately metaphored on the housing bubble, &#8220;blaming the crash on greed is like blaming an airplane crash on gravity&#8221;; it is accurate but not very useful.

At the Copenhagen Climate Change Summit our saviors arrive in 1,200 limousines and 140 private jets.

George Will writes on Climate Gate in the Washington Post; The Climate -change travesty
Excerpt:
Barack Obama, understanding the histrionics required in climate-change debates, promises that U.S. emissions in 2050 will be 83 percent below 2005 levels. If so, 2050 emissions will equal those in 1910, when there were 92 million Americans. But there will be 420 [...]]]></description>
