Bait, what bait. There were 9 named storms this year in the Atlantic basin. True none of them hit the US. This isn't meant to be offensive towards you, but the United States is not the only determining factor in the global warming problem. There were 24 named storms in the Pacific, so it wasn't exactly a slow year. I completely agree with you that climate change is a hard thing to prove because it has happened in the past without human intervention. Completely agree. Even as this map shows..... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:TempAno...cmp_1951-80.gif .... while some areas have experieced increases over the last fifty years or so, there are some areas that haven't.

Truly amazing.

No. I called CanadianBlue an idiot for confusing this topic with the Never Ending Story. I think if you look at 911 carefully and still believe the official version then you must be a fool. Ahh, now it is a group of fools then. I may not believe everything about the official report because some things will inevitably be wrong. That being said, the overall 'Bin Laden's henchmen put planes into buildings and ground' theme still works well for me. Add me to your fool category. I have always appreciated people looking deeply into issues. Close examination is required. Blind hatred and discrediting people with opposing views with name calling is a clear sign of desperation. If you want to believe missles were fired into the pentagon or that fake phone calls were made, knock yourself out.

So we are now idiots for not following the "truth" movement. And they say the art of propoganda is dead. Demean your enemies and make yourself stand out as the only logical one.

If you want to get rid of the legislation, that is one thing. If that is your stance I respect your opinion. However, the idea that we need incentives to do things as simple as stay in school is ridiculous. Sure the concept of "the right thing" is a hard thing to define, but I would assume that it would be universally accepted that staying in school would be the better of the two options of staying in school or dropping out. Maybe there are circumstances that would force a person to drop out for a period of time, but completing a basic level of education would in my mind be defined as the right thing to do. To me it is like when people say there should be incentives to vote in elections to bring out voters. Shouldn't the incentive be that you get to participate in the election. Much like this issue, shouldn't the incentive be that you get to have a formal level of education.

Doing the right thing is what you are suppose to do. Should we really give out government handouts for people who obey society's norms? You stayed off the crack pipe. Fifty bucks.

What are you on? It broke a record yesterday for the warmest December 11th on record. http://www.theweathernetwork.com/weather/a...VR.htm?CABC0308 Today it is above seasonal. So we had a bad week, that is bound to happen. You didn't think global warming meant everyday was going to be hot and sunny did you?

That was all part of the government plan and the New World Order. Look really stupid in the world forum to gain support.

If you drive, don't drop out. Ontario teens under the age of 18 will lose their driver's licence if they drop out of high school under a new law passed Tuesday. Premier Dalton McGuinty said the new law tells kids it's no longer acceptable for them to drop out of high school and hang around at the shopping mall. The law forces teens to stay in school until 18, but gives them different ways to earn their diploma through apprenticeships and co-op placements. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/sto...y/National/home

Arabic al-qā‘ida, the base : al-, the + qā‘ida, foundation, base, feminine participle of qa‘ada, to sit.] http://www.answers.com/topic/al-qaeda Making up propoganda and crashing planes into buildings are slightly different. Lying about WMDs is easy enough to do because the average American citizen doesn't go to Iraq and doesn't investigate the claims. You are right about the repeating things over and over again does not consititute proof. Your argument is living proof of that.

What are you talking about?

I think this is "here say" rather than proof. If 911 was an inside job then the CIA could have easily made this up. This is a perfect example of why debating this issue is pointless. If your argument can also encompass all actions as a possible set up for this event, then what can't you prove? Al Qaeda had made previous statements saying they were going to do this. Bush and the administration were mocked for their refusal to beleive a memo titled "Al-qaeda plans to crash planes into buildings" or something of that nature. But if you can claim that even this was part of the set up then you can prove anything. Was the US governemnt also responsible for the USS cole incident? I guess they could be, it could have been support for al-qaeda's existence, but then again that organization is also a possible CIA manifested fantasy.

Call it what you want. You don't follow the rules, you don't play the game the way you are told, you don't pass. Long term happiness can be achieved without the need of rules.

I couldn't imagine spending my life thinking it was a test to see if I pass or not.

Actually the bank of canada and the government fiscal policy can add value to the Canadian currency in a number of ways. Drawdowns, sale of government bonds, Sale and Repurchase agreements, adjustments of the bank rate and debt management to name a few.
