Reply to Global warming LIES in The Environment PolMach Forums

[quote who="Paladin77"] See, it worked. It was not hard and you can say you saw it your self and agree or disagree with me. [/quote]Yes, in a manner. I already had downloaded a copy a while ago and perused it. By the way, you've misinterpreted that section. It says that the average temperature over the period 2011 to 2030 will be 0.64 to 0.69 degrees warmer than the average temperature over 1980 to 1999. The 0.05 is the range in the predictions.

[quote who="Paladin77"] Could you please post the page and the section of the report that this quote is from? Thanks.I could but I won’t because it is better if you read all four reports to keep it in context. I don’t like to cut and paste as much as I had in this article. I only wanted to wet the appetite to get people to actually read what they were defending, rather than the hype from the news media and religious zealots. [/quote]Your prerogative. Of course, there's

[quote quoting="article"] All models assessed here, for all the non-mitigation scenarios considered, project increases in global mean surface air temperature (SAT) continuing over the 21st century, driven mainly by increases in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations, with the warming proportional to the associated radiative forcing. There is close agreement of globally averaged SAT multi-model mean warming for the early 21st century for concentrations derived from the three non-miti

Reply to Are the rich just greedy pigs? in World Trade Issues PolMach Forums

[quote who="chrizzle"]The only "disadvantage" is that legions of lawyers and accountants would find themselves out of work. [/quote] I'm sure they would find lots of work just trying to figure out how to value income and what income is. Let's face it, the ultra rich will always have more resources to reduce their tax burden. Case in point: one of Australia's richest men, Kerry Packer (RIP), would brag that he never paid any taxes. As for wages, the tournament theory likely applie

Reply to re poll: Would you pre-order on-line a Master of Magic 2? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Well, I wouldn't preorder, but I'd extend my what-was-Drengin.net subscription (I think it's got some other name now) to catch it. I'd probably be after the CD this time, I don't think I could afford the bandwidth of dowloading such a game. BTW the political machine is surprisingly fun. More fun than GC IMO. I ran Nixon against Mother Theresa, and Nixon won!

Reply to MOM 2: How would you improve combat? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

PherdnutChiken, it wasn't the publisher's idea; check out Laser Squad Nemesis. The only thing that Microprose really did to get involved with the development of X-Com Apoc was effectively telling them to wrap it up before it was finished. But in Microprose's defence they were having financial troubles at the time and couldn't afford to support ongoing development, and the developers themselves admitted (in hindsight) that their plan for X-Com Apoc was far too ambitious to be realistic. <br
