  1. Climate Change

    Methane hydrate CH4 as you stated is a serious problem in that it is contained in myriad pockets and there is no technology that can extract it. The age old appeal to the technological fix in this case is an exercise in futility..
  2. Climate Change

    Antarctica Thwaites glacier’s collapse effect on sea level rise. AGW is increasing the movement/deterioration. https://www.alternet.org/2019/04/a-glacier-the-size-of-florida-is-on-track-to-change-the-course-of-human-civilization/
  3. In terms of music can you cite examples? East Indian (sitar, tablas) shakuhachi, or other instruments?
  4. Abortion

    For those who are against female reproductive rights why not fund sex education in schools, free birth control with annual examinations for health. Then there will be no more whining! My guess is that some of you are under a religious imposition that forbids birth control, most likely Catholicism.
  5. Climate Change

    He has responded. Read it or must we teach how to read a graph?
  6. Climate Change

    This is your response given that you are in over your head in this discussion and accusing me of being off medication. Where did you come up with that one? Obviously you haven't read Voids post and may not even understand what he has been writing about.
  7. Climate Change

    Scientific research is not based on opinion or viewpoints. Have you been to college or studied any science? I think you haven’t been exposed to any of the hard sciences including math?
  8. Climate Change

    He already has debunked everything you have or will post. The ideology that informs your narrative is social-Darwinist in scope which has been refuted by research in biological systems or the interdependence of all life in the biosphere. Survival of the fittest as proposed by Herbert Spencer was an erroneous hypothesis.. Why? Species evolve as a group based on altruism and other social group interactions.
  9. Polyvagal theory and tao

    Sometimes it is not easy given the bigotry (all forms of) that goes unchecked on this site. There are some that believe that bigotry should be given an equal voice. I vehemently disagree!
  10. Polyvagal theory and tao

    Thanks! I have all of Monroe's hemi-sync waves 1-6 and many more. Also have the entire library of Jose Silva's work which of late has been very useful!
  11. Polyvagal theory and tao

    In terms of sound frequencies, in what way does Robert Monroe’s hemi-sync be a source of sound? I recently read where Tom Campbell a physicist developed the hemi-sync frequencies.
  12. Polyvagal theory and tao

    Would you explain how to flex the middle ear muscle and I think you have mentioned doing the same thing to the pineal gland.
  13. Climate Change

    I was thinking about non linear dynamic systems/cybernetic feed back loops and how what you just posted relates. One initial condition such as CO2 CH4 will cause massive changes out of control.
  14. Climate Change

    That was an excellent video.
  15. Climate Change

    Prager U has about as much credibility as Trump University. Whereas, the former should be shut down for fraudulently claiming it is a university.
  16. Climate Change

    At what point in time will you actually post an analysis based on science? Honestly, if you don’t have even a modicum of science classes just say so. Just don’t lean on cut/paste with no facts. A paid shill sponsored by the Heartland Institute who is not even a climatologist.
  17. Climate Change

    Addendum to my last post. https://www.nature.com/scitable/knowledge/library/effects-of-rising-atmospheric-concentrations-of-carbon-13254108
  18. Climate Change

    Still rather busy and to the believers that think increasing the volume of CO2 in the biosphere is infinitely beneficial for plants is a misnomer. Increased plant growth due to CO2 increases sugar content and decreases nutritional value. When I have time I will post the research. All plants have a very narrow range of growth factors, genetics, temperature, soil ph, light, CO2, water, root microbial ecosystem and so forth. Evolutionary adaptation describes life in the biosphere and any small disruptive initial condition can and will result in large changes to the system.

    Show your source by providing a link.
  20. Climate Change

    I don’t have the time at the moment and will state factual research regarding oceanic ph which has changed.
  21. Climate Change

    All opinions have equal weight in your worldview? Faulty logic!
  22. Climate Change

    You stated "do not burn" in the context of what you wrote. Furthermore, deforestation as a result of logging and AGW which increases drought conditions and therefor forest fires in the Amazon. I have seen nothing regarding prescribed burns in the Amazon as a way to thin the forest.
  23. Climate Change

    The Amazon basin does have forest fires which are caused by AGW drought as well as human activity i.e, deforestation. The following paper makes it abundantly clear that your statement is flawed! Also there are many sources online that corroborate this paper. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-017-02771-y
  24. Climate Change

    The first 10 minutes or so of Stanley Kubrick's "Full Metal Jacket" is replete with doubly binding communication. Furthermore, the AGW deniers use double binding and gaslighting to the max. Now Trump has assembled a special panel of double binders/gaslighters to confuse the public even more regarding the cause of AGW.
