Some off-topic bickering split from the 'Peak Econobox' thread

Shaneajanderson— Starting to think someone is going on and off their meds.

I just now noticed the '...pubic-lick...'.

I'm happy tho, that you know & did not object to the term, "re-pubic-lick-un".

I am neither a Trump supporter, nor a republican, but global warming is the hoax of the century.

Edited for grammar

That was a joke (not that there is even a vaccine for leprosy), but I'll stand with your choice either way. Personally I am fine with a few basic vaccines but would never just blindly do all 26 shots the CDC pushes by age 2. I'm long past that myself now but can't imagine a day I will ever even get a flu shot now. Just the fact a google search only reveals page after page of one side of the argument is a HUGE red flag to me. If it really was all roses and rainbows it could stand on it's own honesty and wouldn't need such a campaign.

Which is it?

Hi mods! Can we split... whatever this is... into its own thread... and then delete it?

Just got my flu shot 2 days ago; job requirement. My wife says it's something like 50% effective, and then drops something like 10% every month after that. Some studies have found them to be cost effective in the elderly and children, but not cost effective for adults up to 50 years old.

I think that when you see glaciers melting, the people telling you that it is not any warmer are the hoaxers. I have only seen one, but the news is the same all over, and things like old postcards from Glacier National Park make in obvious.

I corrected the "or" to "of". I typed that from my phone and the stupid Android auto correct regularly changes logical wordings to nonsense.

Pursuing impeachment is excellent, as that means nobody is doing anything, which is a platform I'd vote for. If someone said they would do nothing but golf and leave us alone and stop writing ever expanding, cumbersome, contradictory, burdensome, expensive, liberty killing laws; that would have my vote. Hope this impeachment charade makes the Federal government impotent for a long time.

We used to be under a glacier, then under a lake formed as they melted, now a valley, then back uner the glacier as they reformed, then a lake, repeat. If the earth is 5 billion years old we would have had tens of thousands of glacial- interglacial cycles. So glaciers melting is the observation, now why?

Excess Glacier melt isn't caused by the sun, since the sun's TSI hasn't risen enough to account for it AND TSI has been low for the last 13+ years. Possible cosmic ray increases can't account for the melt. Glacial melt isn't caused by solar cycles, since rising temperatures & the melt are way too quick to be accounted for by slowly shifting solar cycles. However, snappily rising man-made GHG, infra-red energy absorbing CO2, methane, oxides of nitrogen, SF6 & other GHGs have been rapidly rising in the atmosphere, mathematically accounting for excess heat being delayed in Earth's lower biosphere. In addition to the GHGs are the positive feedback mechanisms, initiated by excess GHGs, all again, accounting for excess heat.

Of course, Hersbird knew this already, because the above has been told it before. It just repeats a question it has offered before, that it thinks is rhetorical, is easily asked & sometimes not answered. Such is a common strategy by AGW deniers.
