This blog consists of comments from my real blog, http://scienceblogs.com/stoat/, which I don't want to publish there. Plus some other stuff convenient to place here. And its becoming a convenient place for me to dump my comments on other blogs so I can find them again.

Potholes In Their Arguments?
No-one can accuse the Watties of being up-to-date; see Potholes In Their Arguments and compare to Fossil fuels subsidised by $10m a minute, says IMF?

The sad tales of the Wikipedia gang war regarding WUWT – ‘creepy and a little scary’?
I tried talking a bit; see an archive.
One of my comments made it through:
* Hello dahlings. How’s the paper coming along?
And so did another; and a third. But after that, things dried up, with the appallingly dangerous:
left which went unpublished so far, as well as at least one other. Well, glasnost was only going to last so long.
[Update: now published, it looks like. So they're just slow.]
Unlike the comment just after, which I've highlighted, which clearly met all the WUWT comment guidelines. At least, the unofficial ones which are actually implemented - the "official" ones are meaningless, of course.

Sorry, gotta run, PBS Antiques Roadshow is on the telly
A new comment on the post "Agricultural land value as a percentage of GDP"

Don't go there because:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
Combine those two and you get (made up):
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/

If humanity could just get past those two issues, religious and ideological beliefs, just imagine what we all could accomplish.
But don't forget VALUE, everything is predicated based on VALUE. Or is VALUE an assumption or a priori/a posteriori premises or a herd mentality predicated on humanity competing for things, via say auctions, and people shouting in stock markets, etceteras:
http://www.aol.com/article/
(the materials in that painting are worth like $0.99 at the dollar store)
I'm pretty sure during the Great Depression most people were satisfied with just trying to just meet their basic needs, food, clothing and shelter, we're no longer in a Great Depression, however it would appear that a few billion humans still would like to obtain those very basic needs.
I'm not in 'it' to win 'it' but most people appear to be of that, err disposition. When people lose faith in an economic system (of governance) you get zombies.
Are we all just flying dinosaurs collecting shiny things, and if so, to what end. Presumably to collect even more shiny things.
