Global Warming....Gimme a Break

Refer to this story Here. Now I know you little lib monkey will automatically discount it because it is Fox News. You have been trained well by your Liberal masters to shun all reason and just shout slogans at the top of your lungs until your opponents shake their head in shame...at you. I have noticed however a trend in science lately.

Is it just me or has science become incredibly fundamentalist? I thought science was about putting many theories on the floor and reasoning them out through scientific process of discovery and research. It seems that nowadays, if you don't agree with the general consensus on things, you are shot down as a left field mad scientist. I though science was about questioning the status quo.

For example, if you even mention "Intelligent Design" in a scientific circle, chances are you have 24 hours before the entire scientific community throws you out. Did you know that less than half of Americans actually believe in Evolution? Those of you who can stand Ben Stein's monotone voice of reason should check out his documentary called "expelled". I got it for Christmas but you can rent it from netflix or buy it most places. Check it out Here.

This is just my opinion here but don't you think the government jumped onto this whole global warming thing a bit fast? I mean soon as Al Gore's "Inconvenient Truth" came out, every liberal in the nation signed up. Forget that it was filled with tons of false facts and half truths. It simply became the new environmental bible. I tend to notice that the biggest piles of crap usually are the first things generally accepted by the public. Talk to any middle class family that watches the news every night. They will swear up and down that we are in global warming and polar bears are dying blah blah blah. Truth is, they know nothing about it but that doesn't stop them from babbling on what they see on TV and pretend to be an expert about it.

I don't claim to be an expert on the subject of global warming either but I AM confident enough to say that something is horribly wrong with the scientific community. Ideas should be cultivated and encouraged for challenging the known "facts", not shot down.

Rain Finally

Here on the Central Coast of California, the weather is....paradise. About 68-75 degrees all year round with over 300 days of sunshine and a light breeze, it is no wonder why it is so expensive to live here. On the other hand, when droughts hit, they hit hard. For the past 2 years we have gotten about 3 inches of rainfall over the entire rainy season. Some of you get that in a day from a good thunder storm.

Thankfully, it looks like this year will be a bit better. We have already hit almost 4 inches and still have a good month to go with 3 storm systems lined up at least. Sometimes I miss Washington. So much green. Oh well. We have 1 waterfall in the entire county so for your viewing pleasure, here it is.
