Boing Boing kicking around climate change
Interesting thing brewing up over on mega blog Boing Boing. One of the guest bloggers, Charles Platt, has been posting tons of climate denier BS (sorry, got to call it what it is), and Cory Doctorow has started coming back with tons of good stuff to counter it. Check it out under their posts tagged "environment".
Overall, the Boing Boing comment crowd has been giving Platt a piece of their mind as well. One of my favorite comments is from SMonkey.
I will not even address this but to point out that the article from the website refd (Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine) was written by Arthur B. Robinson who, according to wikipedia,/snip
Robinson is a signatory to A Scientific Dissent From Darwinism, a petition produced by the Discovery Institute that expresses skepticism about the ability of natural selection to account for the complexity of life, and encouraging careful examination of the evidence for "Darwinian theory".

So yeah, global warming is a fraud. And so "Darwinian Theory".And the other big name on that site, Frederick Seitz, was a Physicist (not exactly climate related) who argued on behalf of big tobacco that there wasn't a solid link between smoking and cancer.
Yeah...no solid link at all.
Trolling is all good and fun and all. But check your sources.
