And I agree that gullible rubes parrot what sockpuppets write. That's the genius of the astroturf agitprop movement. <br /><br />Best,<br /><br />DDanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03709762632849004871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28837843.post-58261612353962310882010-12-07T08:01:52.113-08:002010-12-07T08:01:52.113-08:00Well, I know about the dangers of extrapolation, b...Well, I know about the dangers of extrapolation, but in at least a couple of occaisions, such people do in fact exist and want to do it on their own time, due to their political beliefs. The most infamous example is neil craig, founder of the 10% growth party, who is a real person based in glasgow. Another similar minded person or two I have come across are known to be real through the six degrees of separation thing, whereby I know someone who knows someone who knows them. <br />That is the beauty of it, why pay someone when there are dupes lining up to do it for free?<br /><br />(Of course they say the same thing about the likes of us...)<br /><br />I'm sure the usual suspects write the fud, but once released into the wild it is propagated by volunteers.guthriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17992984293423290387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28837843.post-32101757947203904752010-12-07T07:32:00.118-08:002010-12-07T07:32:00.118-08:00My default is these commenters are not real people...My default is these commenters are not real people and instead some Andura Smetacek-type character. Sure, there are those that are this ignorant and make assertive-yet-titanically-wrong comments, but IME far more likely to be a created character to spread FUD. Very common. <br /><br />Best,<br /><br />DDanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03709762632849004871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28837843.post-9877058715853979952010-12-06T15:21:54.511-08:002010-12-06T15:21:54.511-08:00Not at all, this kind of stupidity is commonplace ...Not at all, this kind of stupidity is commonplace amongst those who think that global warming is a greenie plot to kill humans and destroy the economy. No matter how many times you carefuly explain that acidifying means becoming more acidic, they never get it and insist on making a big deal about it.guthriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17992984293423290387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28837843.post-81652230239725959882010-12-06T08:54:59.182-08:002010-12-06T08:54:59.182-08:00Marcia, like Booker, is trying to spread disinform...Marcia, like Booker, is trying to spread disinformation. <br /><br />Its not being dumb, its having no shame - as David's headline states but text muddles. <br /><br />Best,<br /><br />DDanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03709762632849004871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28837843.post-41477732397041027502010-12-06T06:44:21.834-08:002010-12-06T06:44:21.834-08:00Marcia are you for real?

Of course something that's alkaline does NOT become more acidic with a slight drop, just as something that's frozen but raises slightly in temp doesn't become MORE liquid. It's still frozen!!! It's a chemical process. You tried, but failed on this one. <br />Marcia TurnquistAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
