[quote]Actually that>s not what I meant since before when I worked for Sam
we did little crypto but work that was done no longer was judged on
merit. It was either blessed by people who had degree>s in English
or Social Studies and managing was no longer run by PhD scientist or
engineers. I see from the paper I quoted the same thing has occurred
in climate science where only the idiots who think global warming is
occurring when actually real data suggests that an ice age is more
likely in the near future. Honest scientists who suggest looking at
real facts like the cooling trend are mostly ignored. Just look at
NASA its only political correctness that counts. We have learned
nothing from our last few big accidents and it will look as stupid as
ever when the facts about the global warming scare eventually come
out as bunk. I am some what saddened to have been associated with
NASA. At one time it was a proud think know its an embarrassment.
[/quote]
the two actually go hand in hand, the ocean heats up by a degree or two,
that melts the ice caps and does other funky things to the weather, which in
turn disrupt the ocean currents and WHAM welcome to an ice age, then there
will be a brief period of warming then another cooling before a big warming,
how do i know? because that>s what the climatic history says happens after
every ice age. there is not going to be some massive increase in mean
temperature around the world, and carbon, no matter how many people tell you
otherwise, is not the culprit, but in fact it is methane and a few other
gases.

To tell the real science from the oil industry shills, you need to
know a few basic facts.

Pretty well everywhere on Earth, each day it gets warmer during the
day while the Sun shines. Then, at night, it gets cooler - instead of
staying the same, and getting warmer still the next day. Why does it
get cooler at night? Outer space doesn>t come in contact with the
Earth through convection to take heat away.

No; it gets cooler at night because the Earth radiates into the
blackness of space.

Do you see the ground beneath you glowing? Is the Earth as hot as a
light bulb>s filament, or the Sun>s surface? No. So what the Earth is
radiating is long-wave infrared, appropriate to blackbody radiation
for its temperature.

Carbon dioxide is transparent to sunlight - but it blocks, and is
therefore warmed by, long wave infrared of the type the Earth radiates
at night. Atmospheric carbon dioxide can be measured, it has been, and
it has gone up.

This is global warming - science, yes, but not rocket science. It>s
pretty hard to get wrong, even if there are ways to dance around it.

So here, at least, the ecology side isn>t crying "Wolf". Anyways,
there>s something called nuclear power which can produce all the
energy we want without burning oil - and the objections to *that* from

Golly Pollyanna, maybe you could create your own website and publish
your information unfiltered by any other human being on this thing they call
"THE INTERNET"?

If you want funding, then pay for a patent on your work and sell it to
the public.
If you cannot create compression code without funding, then you are a
dumbass who is UNWORTHY of funding.

It is not too hard to learn programming code (if you devote yourself to
the task) when you have a logical mind that can break a big problem into
many tiny problems. Just as the tape recorder and microphone destroyed many
aspiring impatient tone-deaf singers, so in turn the basic skills of
computer programming + math skills have destroyed many aspiring data
compression attention-whores.

Actually the students of an incompetent worthless professor can indeed
sue that professor for academic fraud (failing to teach employable job
skills in their class) and the school for the return of the portion of their
tuition spent on promised education that the incompetent teacher failed to

The students need to document the instances (preferably with video and
clear audio) of the circumstances in which the professor lectured plus

Actually, it is more than possible. The problem is that the basic
5th-directional (2-directional space is the center of a circle, a 2D being
could only spin in place and move in a vector direction) technology for
accomplishing this feat would require another 167 human years of
development. Our reality is in 3-directional spacetime (time being one
hyperspherical direction that we humans currently have no ability to
consciously alter) in which we can move in basically in weightless space in
3-directions at once. For example, we can spin on an axis like a basketball
in one exclusive rotational direction as a semi-solid object. We can also
move by displacement in a vector direction from any point in the center of
an infinite imaginary sphere. We can also tumble in yet another direction
(think of a spinning globe on a pivot and how you can pick up the globe and
rotate it around another axis spin while the globe itself remains spinning).
Note that the vector movement can move at one velocity, the spinning can
happen at another velocity, and the tumbling can happen at a completely
different velocity. The speed of this movement can be zero. The reason I
call this "directional space" is that when you move to a higher "direction",
you can move in a new way that no other creature or object can consciously
or physically do in the lower directional space. 4th-directional space = 4
directions (with a new directional vector angle range added plus the new
spin direction) of movement possible all at the same instance.

4th-directional space is pretty much similar in that you can move in a
vector direction from the center of an infinite imaginary hypersphere as
well as spin in place, tumble on another axis, and move through time vectors
on yet another axis as well as spin on the temporal axis. When a
higher-directional object pokes into our reality, it expresses itself as a
variety of effects depending on how it contacts our reality.

For example a pushpin shoved through a 2-directional reality would
cleave or compress any object contacting it. A 4-directional (hyper-space)
pushpin shoved through 3D reality would be mostly invulnerable to all 3D
matter, mostly invisible, and immobile by all beings in 3D reality. This
pushpin could be electrified or heated or spinning in place or vibrating
slightly. If something from 4D reality is pushing (but not penetrating)
into 3D spacetime, them it would appear as invisible forces (magnetism is an
easy example for any simpleton to comprehend). That 4D something can be
spinning while pushing into our reality which could also have other
secondary effects (a hot spot on the 4D object would temporally appear and
then disappear at a regular frequency). 5th-directional (quantum-space)
matter tends to express itself most commonly as photons (a 5-D particle
contacting our 3-D space) and gravity fields. As a photon pushes through
our spacetime it then appears as a waveform of temporary potential photons
which then collapse into real photons for a bit of time (for a fairly
inaccurate mental-picture description of how this works, think of a
beachball rolling across the surface of a calm lake, then a bird lands on
it, causing the beachball to sink into the water for a second and releasing
waves of motion into the lake, then the bird flies off, causing the
beachball to pop up (and sometimes for a second out of the lake and into the
air) which then reduces the penetration of the beachball "particle" (3D
object pretending to ba a 5D object) into "lake space" (2D liquid surface as
an example of 3D spacetime) back to a "wave-particle".

The other problem of using this is that without first creating stable 4D
objects the side-effects of using this technology unwisely is pretty bad.
Dangerously pretty bad, insanely horrifically, species-destroying,
world-cleaving, continent exploding BAD. Space is messy and untidy. So is
higher-directional space matter. It comes in all masses, all velocities,
all rotational speeds, a variety of thermal differences, differing periodic
tables (4D chemistry is not pretty to 3D creatures) and 6D lifeforms (some
6D bacteria eat potentialities thus collapsing the quantum-5D spacetime into
fewer potential reality divergences). Make yourself too known to 5D
lifeforms and they can find you very delicious.

This is the ultra-simplified version for the kindergarten-level readers,
so don>t expect the complex math to be posted here.

actually that has been debunked recently. carbon in their air makes for

the industrial revolution didnt do much for the atmosphere at all, but it

going through a growth spurt because of the excess carbon in the atmosphere,
it levels out. on top of that, contrary to popular belief, the amazon is not
