My dads a geologist...count him in too...

Are we officially a movement, then?

Or are we merely another fringe group?

I hate fringe. [/b][/quote]
make that 4...i think we&#39;ve been upgraded to &#39;movement&#39; status.

Global Warmings a load of shit...it was actually warmer in the middle ages&#33;

I think you&#39;re confused. It was colder in the Middle Ages. It was warmer before the last Ice Age came.

The scientific minds thought the earth was flat once.

No, they didn&#39;t. That is an assumption, not a scientifically tested idea, is it? Its a really poor argument for debunking anything scientific.
Global Warming is happening, but it doesn&#39;t really matter that much. The global temperature varies all the time, it won&#39;t kill off civilisation.

imho, global warming is pish

you can post pics of co2 levels and temp rises all you want, but it&#39;s a well-known fact that the c02 conc. in the atmosphere and the atmospheric temps have varied widely throughout history

Many scientists had thought the Earth was flat, but Aristotle, a Greek scientist
who lived in the 4th century BC

You are making stuff up...Pythagoras in 500 B.C. first used the evidence of observations about the way the altitudes of stars varied at different places on Earth and how ships appeared on the horizon. As a ship returned to port, first its mast tops, then the sails, and finally its hull gradually came into view. Aristotle thought the earth was round too. He added that the shadow cast on the moon by the earth was round, and stayed in that shape as the position of the moon in the sky changed. The Greeks also calculated the general size and shape of the earth from the different lengths of shadows at different places on the earth&#39;s surface, and created latitude and longitude.

Greeks were smarter then than now.

Their intelligence ebbs and flows, much like the earth&#39;s temperature.
