Instructions: Take a Spectrometer, an both sides open glass pipe, a burning candle and a bottle with compressed CO2. Set spectrometer at one end of pipe and burning candle at other end. Watch spectrometer to see candle flame brightly burning. Slowly let a little bit of CO2 flow in the glass pipe and watch spectrometer and as CO2 increases, the candle completely disappearing from the spectrometers view, candle still burning as at start. Demonstrates that CO2 absorbs long wave radiation, mainly at 15um. Watch video for a demonstration: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8547224522119252436# (somewhere in this 59 minute program)

I'm 100% sure it was explained to you [ad nauseam] why the stratosphere is cooling... because less heat is escaping through that column of air with ever more CO2, reaching pretty high and getting to be less vapor holding with altitude. Is it not causing questions that 0.0393% can cause about 5% known as forcing and the water vapor does almost all the rest, as feedback?

Saw a quote today of George W. Bush paraphrased "In my line of business you have to repeat, repeat again, and again before the Truth sticks". An Australian study shows that when initially something was taken in incorrectly, it was very hard to get the correction to stick: http://www.psy.uwa.edu.au/Users%20web%20pages...ents/Ecker.IP2011.PBR.pdf ... For some more times than others, of course there being those who'll never accept they were told wrong in the first place!

Meantime from the world of NIMBY, the Oklahoman's have a different experience in their yards: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/43790899/ns/weather/

Is 1:28 minutes the attention span needed? That's 3x longer than a sports-bar channel flash.

A little longer temperature track than NOAA's:



Food for thought [but not for all, and longer than 1:28 minutes]

edit: Episode 3: Earth, The Climate Wars, the final 59 minutes of required attention span, really!

Lucky for you, your parents did not name you Tom and no Argu-point score by you. Same as your kid time's cloud-room experiment, this spectrometer-glass pipe-candle-CO2 gas demonstration was not a controlled environment experiment... how predictable to bring up puh puhing of the expanding gas cooling effect. The conclusive ''controlled environment'' tests were done in the 50s, in the same decade that Keeling developed his apparatus [today still the reference calibration setup] to measure the exact parts of CO2 in the air. The first tests were done by Langley in 1890, aiming his instruments at the moon at different alleviations over the [starry] horizon and Arrhenius doing the calculations in 1896.

Children live in fear, because their parents did not take care of a good outlook of the future... dancing around the turd in the bowl.... Can't Touch This]. Children thinking "Why did they not do something about the turd?"

Meantime, the globe continues to warm, and [handwaving] propaganda for inaction continues, by YOU. The Sea Ice and Snow thinks differently [don't know if there's intelligence in that design either, some messages maybe not arriving], not abiding by David's unscientificie fallable logic.

July 18, 2011 7,155,156 km square at this mornings update, 1,065,938 km square less than 10 days ago, a new July record breaker of decline, after such a terrible winter and the sun lingering in a 100 year low... hmmm, Maunder or Dalton minimum, the effect is just 0.2C to 0.3C and still 2010 was a record year and 2011 heading for breaking that. Many tens of millions in the Southern US are feeling it... read in your team thread of 117F. Do you think anything grows in those temps that normally grows there. Interested about the ¨not so¨ record harvests that are not growing out there... something akin to what Russia saw in 2010 and ran up world food prices... yes, there are 7 billion to feed.

Food for though [but not by all]

P.S.: The 1880-Present temperature chain by GISS. Readers will start to see a likeness with the previous 2 posted temp charts by NOAA and HadleyCRU. Can you see it?



P.P.S: George W. Bush was not exactly a luminary president, but he was right about "See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda.". He also said "You can fool some of the people all of the time; and those are the ones you have to concentrate on." Feeling fooled by Rupert, or are the feelings more acute? Will Cameron (the top) now be voted out? Who´s in charge you think (Davos Group, BildenBerg, Illuminati, Free Masons) or the really not so low key, right in our faces?
