Post #12981752 Putin has done for Russia what Lenin first did, he helped Russia. The funny thing is, if you do that kind of thing, there's no exit for you after that. Many people say that corruption is a prob ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Putin the Magnificent	Aug 27 2012

Post #11741962 Either fate or those behind Putin have made it so. High oil prices did it (just as extremely low oil prices for a prolonged period destroyed the USSR). Putin's achievement (and I'm only half ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Putin the Magnificent	Mar 1 2012
Post #11672952 I think there is a large element of electioneering in this. You bet! :-D The Russians like a strong leader and one that promises a return to the wonderful days of military parades around Re ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Putin the Magnificent	Feb 21 2012
Post #10432132 From an outside point of view one has to say that it does seem that Russia has reverted to the "Cult of Personality" so reviled in the past. Or should one say "Cult of 2 Personalities"? I would ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Putin the Magnificent	Sep 29 2011
Post #10418632 We had some Russian friends here on the Forum; if one of them is till active would they care to comment? --- not so much on the likelihood of him being re-elected which is clearly going to happen ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Putin the Magnificent	Sep 28 2011
Post #4243401 Science and politics is well enough decoupled by the way they work Probably true, but global warming is a highly politically charged theme. Moreover, the IPCC is an entity on political payroll ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global warming	Feb 16 2010
Post #4223911 Unfortunately this means that some features don't make it into the public builds (or will appear in another form). Well, "another form" was a zoom slider. Or at least a menu item. Can we hope t ...…	vangrieg	Opera Mobile for Windows Mobile	opera 10 beta flaws	Feb 15 2010

Post #4117001 We can't model these, so they're simply not included in the predictions of sea level rise. Finally an admission to limitations of this modelling consensus stuff. True, very little is known abou ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global warming	Feb 6 2010
Post #4109801 the statistical methods used in climatology are considered science. Sure. The problem isn't whether it's science or not. It's that science can be wrong. The consensus among economists using sta ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global warming	Feb 5 2010
Post #3802031 Look at Illinois or Canada on the other hand... Well, living in Moscow for the past 5 years I must say I'm completely unprepared for cold sunless summers and freezing below -25 every damn winter. …	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Jan 7 2010
Post #3802011 Some remedies will make sense with very moderate climate change, even with no climate change at all. Others would hardly make sense even in the most desperate cataclysmic scenarios. Absolutely ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Jan 7 2010
Post #3791211 We do not know what the effects of doubling the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere will be. As far as we know, however, the economic cost of avoiding that scenario is cheaper than t ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Jan 6 2010
Post #3679181 The raw data wasn't theirs to disclose. Which should have been the answer if it were true, plain and simple. It wasn't so I can't help seeing attempts to present it as such as simple zealotry. …	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global warming	Dec 26 2009
Post #3678111 I've run into this stopper on several issues recently. Lots of information out there, but often not generally available. Well, these guys didn't want to disclose raw data AFAIR, and that kind o ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global warming	Dec 26 2009
Post #3671261 I'm inclined to believe that what we're seeing isn't about a left-wing plot, as some of our conservative friends insist. That would be too complicated to be true. But would you seriously believ ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global warming	Dec 25 2009

Post #3572891 And what were they supposed to do, exactly? Ride horses? On a lighter side of things, today was the second coldest December 15th ever recorded here in Moscow, it was freaking -25 during the da ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Dec 15 2009
Post #3564461 We the people must now do to Google what we did to Yahoo and the likes when Google emerged: defect! We just need a small weird search startup to use. Anybody willing to launch one? …	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Mozilla to its users; switch Firefox from Google to Bing	Dec 14 2009
Post #3448721 You seem to be basing your entire argument on the gamble that we will discover some unknown effect that counters the effects we've predicted No. …	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Dec 4 2009
Post #3445051 They know full well about water vapour. Sure they do, but they don't know how it will affect the climate in the long run. The stuff about snow I learned following one of the pro-AGW links you g ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Dec 3 2009
Post #3444931 Some positive feedbacks are known, I don't know if there are any significant cooling feedbacks. Here you again seem to reduce the whole issue to warming/cooling, although I'm much more interest ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Dec 3 2009
Post #3444711 insurance companies estimated that $28 trillion of assets will be put at risk by 2050. That's not the kind of science you've been an advocate of, is it? …	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Dec 3 2009
Post #3444561 as we have already started doing. Wait a second. That was something that I have asked more than once on the last few pages, and never got any answer. Assuming the warming is here and it's cause ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Dec 3 2009
Post #3415741 some of them are willfully ignorant Me, I prefer to listen to skeptics together with (sometimes rather than) zealots most of the time. Proves effective. …	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Dec 1 2009

Post #3327231 That's what they keep saying is happening and going to happen, and it doesn't happen. Damnit, there were people who kept saying that there would be a major global economic crisis, and it didn't ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Nov 26 2009
Post #3327091 Your point would be valid if we came up with hypothesis after the fact, that is, after the warming had been observed. No, it's valid either way if you think about it a little. Actually, it' ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Nov 26 2009
Post #3326891 The only observation that would cause me to doubt the hypothesis would be a decades-long slowdown in the warming trend. Don't you see what you're doing here? You want "denialists" to cool down ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Nov 26 2009
Post #3326741 That's scientific method? You haven't bothered to read my post. You observe two phenomena and because they evolve together (assuming they do, I've seen contradictory data on this, like I said, but ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Nov 26 2009
Post #3326431 Read carefully what I said in my last post. The fact that you decided to get religious about it is your own business, but it doesn't add much in terms of validity of the theory. End of story. …	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Nov 26 2009
Post #3326301 Whether God exists or not is not testable. Neither is MMGW, within our lifetime. It hasn't been "proven". There had been a lot of analyses that stock markets would grow, with elaborate explana ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Nov 26 2009
Post #3326031 If AGW really isn't happening, what can't anyone present any evidence to that effect? It's akin to demanding that atheists prove to religious people that god doesn't exist. The one who introduc ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Nov 26 2009
Post #3312761 If you love a good conspiracy theory, stay tuned. A conspiracy isn't really needed here, it would assume that there's some central force behind it. You don't need a central force to have folks ...…	vangrieg	Debates & Discussions	Global Warming	Nov 25 2009
