My hot tub is getting warmer

OK!  Granted that line was a cheesy entry into my real subject, "Global Warming".  Wait, before you leave this thread do me one favor and view this movie. Yes, it will take about 1 hour and 15 minutes but it is very valid.  This global warming crap has to be stopped because we will spend ourselves into oblivion supporting this bunk.

How is this ho tub related?  Well on a couple of points it is related.  First, if global warming was real, the entire spa industry would be affected.  Secondly, there was a string in which this issue was brought up on the "Hot Tub" board and I noticed several people jumped on the "save our planet" band wagon.  The problem is these people, I'm sure while being very well educated, have been told this lie and believe it. In fact, we have all been told this lie and are being pushed on a huge wave of media and money that keeps this issue alive and growing.

Check out the movie and get your reality check as I did! http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4340135300469846467

Bill, if you move or delete this post, I will understand even though the hot tub industry will eventually be affected.  Thanks for the soap box!

I share your opinion and the movies view on Global Warming. While I believe is is a problem I don't see it as devestatiing earth ending event being predicted. And besides, here in Northern Minnesota we could use a little "Global Warming"

Things may be different 10-15 generations from now but my grave will be paved over long before then!!!!

Global warming is one of the great lies to advance socialism.  Anyone that doesn't realize that is a simpleminded lemming, the target demographic for socialists.

Human beings are so insignificant when compared to the vastness of earth it is laughable to even consider that we amount to anything more than a blip on the screen.  Get in a 747, fly halfway around the world, and you realize just how tiny you are.  If you can visualize how truly irrelevant we are compared to earth, it's inconceivable imagining what a minute speck you are on a tiny speck in the solar system, galaxy, and universe.

People make too much of themselves and their importance.

Great post Campsalot!

AIDS is another great hoax, by the way.

We are anxiously awaiting the first winter snow storm to hit this area during the month of April in more than a century - dang global warming!

How about that... a Troll convention!  Since the great minds are weighing on the issues of the day, perhaps you can also save us from the great "lies" in the creation/evolution, sexuality, race, abortion and WMD debates. :-/  Then perhaps you can tackle straight-up politics and religion, and let us know what labels should apply to people who have a different opinion than yours on those issues as well.  :P

Well,
Although I personally feel that global warming is a hoax I don't feel that the by-product of cleaning up our pollution and environment is that bad.

We need to tighten up a bit for the health of the population and we've lost common sense somewhere in the masses....

WOW Reese,
Hit a sore spot did they. I have to agree on the hoax of global warming. To little data to say what is really happening now. For thousands of years there have been many climate changes to many extremes. Now it's all mans fault  because Al Gore writes a book and gains a following of educated people to promote this very unproven theory. There is almost as many or more educated people that disagree with it. As to the AIDS question it is very real but also very preventable. IMO more money should be spent on cancer research that kills far more buts gets less funding than Aids. As to the other subjects mentioned by you, what is wrong with a little discussion on them. We still have our right to free speech, Don't we?

Meteorologists/Scientists can't even predict tommorrow's weather accurate, much less how hot the earth is getting.

Global warming  ;D

Personally, I do believe in global warming but have no issue with people who think it's overblown but 2 people in a row using/agreeing with the term "hoax"? I think that's going a bit far!

Between global warming (reality, threat or theory) and the exploding population this world has seen in the past century (maybe the biggest issue overall and defintiely part of many of the world's issues) I think there is reason for concern. While the degree of that concern is certainly debatable I can't buy into the theory that there is any hoax going on. I think both sides (and those in between) beleive what they say.

hoax –noun
something intended to deceive or defraud:

You saw what happened when Imus tried to practice free speech didn't you?
Free speech is a myth.  You can't speak freely now a days if it hurts someone's feelings.

Political correctness is the liberal's most powerful tool to stifle freedom.  It was used to take Imus down, it will be used against others.

 Be careful about proclamations regarding freedom of speech.  That right is guaranteed by the Constitution- which is a document that is supposed to protect us from an opressive government.  Imus made those comments in the scope of his employment and he was terminated by his employer.  That isn't something that is protected by the Constitution.  

Much like this forum.  We can't say whatever we want here, since it's a private entity.

I do agree, however, that we are WAY too politically correct about what people do say or how they say it.  

For some intesting counterpoints on global warming, read Goorge Will's columns this week.  They are published in our local paper, and probably a lot more.
He raises some interesting counterpoints to the global warming claims using good old common sense.

I think a view somewhere inbetween hoax and real immediate threat would be called for here....agreed? To what degree, to each his own. I won't loose any sleep over it, and I dout my kids will or there kids or there kids. After that we may need more sun screen.
