So I share it with all of you. I'll be reading this aloud to all assembled at my Thanksgiving Dinner on Thursday.

The Great Thanksgiving Hoax

The devastating book which debunks climate change

...
The greatest myth of all in this story is the claim that the succession of alarmist reports produced by the IPCC represents a 'consensus' of the views of '2,500 of the world's top climate scientists'.

In every way, this is wildly misleading. The vast majority of those who contribute to those IPCC reports are not climate scientists. Many are not scientists at all, but economists or sociologists - even just environmental activists with no scientific qualifications whatever.

The IPCC was never intended to be an impartial body, weighing the evidence for and against man-made global warming and coming up with objective conclusions.

It was set up by a small group of scientists already so firmly committed to the belief in 'human-induced climate change' that they were not prepared to examine any evidence which contradicted it.

A detailed study of the contributors to the most recent IPCC report has shown that the number of scientists responsible for the key chapter on the extent and causes of global warming - on which everything else in the report depended - was not 2,500, but barely 50.

Almost all this handful of scientists were firmly committed to the official view on global warming before they were appointed - and they include those whose leaked emails have now created a shock wave running around the world.

Tellingly, what they also all have in common is that their findings are based on computer models programmed to assume the chief cause of global warming is the rise in greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide.

It is precisely this assumption which more than anything else has been called into question by the fact that global temperatures have not been continuing to rise as the computer models insisted they should.

There may be more to this story, but the "strict liability" shows the biggest problem, that the law is no longer "guidance to wise men", but purely "obedience for fools". We make the law, so we must be masters of it, not subservient to reactive political expediency in writing. -- SBP (Emphasis mine -- Tiger)

The anthropogenic global warming theory put forth by the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) isn't just a hoax, it is a deliberate FRAUD. Chances are your government has implemented some sort of carbon-credit system, or is seriously looking at doing it. If they have, they've been fleeced, and if they're about to, they're about to be fleeced.

Note: When a government loses a bunch of money, they take it out of YOUR HIDES, since their money is really a portion of YOUR money.

Hang the bastards pushing this bullshit AGW theory so they can't perpetrate another multi-billion dollar fraud scheme on an unsuspecting world.

Me, Mrs. Tiger, and the two cubs went over to Watertown NY and much purchasing was done. We came back with four (yes FOUR) 18 lb turkeys. One for Thanksgiving, one for Christmas, and two more just because we really like turkey. :)

Over the next few days there will be much cleaning and cooking, getting ready for the big day Thursday for our 8th annual "American Thanksgiving in Canada".

Just picked up a pair of Sennheiser PC350 Gaming Headphones (with microphone) from a nice little audio shop in the city I work in called Linden AudioTronic.

Wow. Just.... WOW. Yeah, at $228 CDN before taxes, these are a bit on the pricey side, but NO hiss, no dropouts in the audio range, and they're solidly built.

I got sick of replacing cheaper sets every few months. Let's see how these hold up, but so far.... NICE.

I know I have a few readers who have the honor of having U.S. Marines in their family. I saw this bumper sticker and was very amused, and wanted to share.



Happy 234th Birthday, USMC!
