Global Warming Scientist Get Stuck in Growing Antartic Ice

Such hostility, all because you got caught making shit up. What are you, some sort of AGW scientist?

I am a parent. I don't know about you, but it creates in me a concern about the future. It leads me to view the opinions of people like FlaCalTenn and yourself as threats to my children.

And I made up nothing.

It's a very simple task for you to post the links where you read that his was just a cruise ship and that scientists had no input in planning the route.

As a parent, you should set an example by not making shit up.
 
Purchasing mandatory healthcare coverage is no more a tax than purchasing mandatory vehicle insurance or malpractice insurance or businesses having to post bonds.

Personally, I favored a single-payer system financed by an increase in income taxes. So you're not going to get me too excited by griping about PPACA. It just tells me, along with your sig, that you really and truly hate the freedom of expression and mutual compassion on which this country was founded.

Why do you live here? Surely you'd be happier in North Korea or Burma or perhaps Venezuela. Have you checked them out? I know they'd love to have you.

You obviously don't understand health insurance.
 
You obviously don't have the faintest idea what I do and do not know.

I already told you that I have no idea from what specific article I took the information I posted, but if I find articles carrying similar information, are you going to apologize for calling me a liar?
 
Every one of these articles describe the vessel as a cruise ship and/or the trip as a cruise. The ship is carrying "passengers". Passengers do not control the vessel on which they ride.

Provide evidence to substantiate that you aren't flat out lying and I'll apologize for calling you a liar.

Helicopter rescue possible for ship stuck off Antarctica


The first words of this article are:

"The passengers on a Russian-flagged research ship stranded in ice off Antarctica will be evacuated by a Chinese helicopter once weather permits,"

So that one doesn't work. Also, the date of this first article is 12/30/13 which is two days after you first made your claim.


Now this one would give you some credibility, if the second sentence hadn't said this:

"The Russian-operated Akademik Shokalskiy, an ice-strengthened vessel built in 1984 for oceanographic research,"


This article also has a date after you first made your statement so you can't claim to have read it before telling us that this was not a scientific expedition.


Now this one might have given you your out. It's from before your statement (now proven to be absolutely bogus) and it even says "Cruise ship" in the title. But this part tells me that you didn't actually read it:

"Passengers on a Russian polar expedition ship off Antarctica are getting a whiter Christmas than they probably wanted."

Given your position as someone who constantly tells others how little they know about science merely because they disagree with you, it's not a leap to expect that someone as knowledgeable and educated as you in one of the fields of Science knows what "expedition ship" means.

So fail again on your part.


This one, brief, 7 sentence article might have been your out. If you could claim that your level concern in this matter was limited to reading this one short article and that between the time you read this thread and the time you made your response you had not chose to inform yourself any more on the matter, then I would offer my apologies.

If you were this unconcerned and uninformed you would not be liar you would be an ignoramous.

However, you have made statements that demonstrate more about you. Why post articles dated after your claim if these are sources you say you read that formed the opinion you stated?


That video was posted yesterday, 3 days after you made your claim. Also you obviously weren't paying attention because starting at 25 seconds into it the journalist on camera describes the ship as a "research vessel."


This blurb along with the other short article would have sufficed to demonstrate your ignorance and not an intent to lie. But when you went overboard by citing sources dating after your initial claim, they don't bolster your argument.

It appears you have become a victim of your own failure to analyze facts and data. I'll remember this when I read more from you.


No apology from me, you have compounded your lie.


Why is it that every time I encounter true believers in the absolute nature of AGW that they expose themselves to be willing to be loose with the truth?

This story makes me happy.

I hope you enjoyed yourself. Given the amount of time you've spent on it, you'd better have.

Allow me to point out, however, that I never claimed ANY of those were the particular article I read.
 
And you think they should have? Funnier!
No links to prove you aren't lying about it being a cruise ship huh?

That the thing was built to be a Arctic research vessel can be seen from any photograph. That it was being used as a "cruise" ship is supported by all the articles to which I linked.

How about some evidence from YOU that indicates any of the scientists on board were directing its movements? Those would be links that could prove YOU weren't lying when you tell us otherwise.

You claimed them when you used the links to support your position that the ship is a cruise ship .

No, I did not. I clearly stated that I had no recollection of the source of that information and then stated that all of the linked articles described the vessel or the trip using the term "cruise", which they do.

No? Here's what you said

Every one of these articles describe the vessel as a cruise ship and/or the trip as a cruise. The ship is carrying "passengers". Passengers do not control the vessel on which they ride.

Rule of thumb when using a link as support don't try to weasel out when you failed to make your point.
 
One quote from me is not proof that I did not say something else elsewhere.

When you said "you claimed them", the obvious interpretation was that you were charging I had identified them as my original source. If you want to check me against some point, make certain you're speaking in normal, intelligible English.
 
Leave 'em be, Abe. Many denialists are, shall we say, obsessive personalities. That is, crazyass stalkers. And they lie, a lot, about everything. Instead of enabling them, stand back and laugh as they go into a meltdown because you're laughing at them.
 
Anyone who expects the unvarnished truth in a media report is a fool who will end up being embarrassed for getting duped. This is especially true when you only look for articles that support a favoured version.
