A nice companion story (which I also posted about earlier today):

Funny how no-one wants to discuss it, eh?

irrelevant.

Glenn Beck is another self-referencing null pointer.

Far be it from you to let people make up their own minds. Like they are
going to say "Oh - OK - since someone said - ummm - whatever b.s.
expression you said - I guess I better not look at that.

Why are you afraid of the truth? For yourself as well as for others?
Oh - well - no problem. People are smarter than that. They know you're
still learning and in fact way down on the curve. You might try
adopting the philosophy of encouraging people to look at the information
and deciding for themselves instead of you acting like their priest.

Knowledge is power. Don't fear it.

You mean there's more than one of you?

Actually Glenn is fun to listen to, as well as informative. Besides his
radio show at various times around the country on different stations,
he's on CNN Headline News for an hour each weekday evening at 7 and then
again at 9. He's also on XM 165 9-noon ET. How's that for SPAM,
Richard? Thanks for the opportunity to introduce people to Glenn Beck.

DUH! He's not.

But I listen to the BBC all the time and hearing they were swayed by one
k00k (who, BTW is also NOT a 'scientist') doesn't surprise me.

And, since you seem to have your head in the sand, it was released
Thursday on more outlets than the BBC that the temperature has settled
over the past 10 years, and meteorologists are predicting a decline for
this year. I've seen it in papers, heard it on the radio from more than
just Glenn Beck, and have seen it 'mentioned' on TV from various sources.

The BBC seems to have this agenda of getting in your face to make YOU
think YOU are responsible for 'Climate Change', especially if you listen
to any reports from Matt McGraw, their 'Science Correspondent', who has
unequivocally pointed out that Climate Change is caused by Man, ignoring
any climatic studies that have shown it occurs every 10-15,000 years.

The point of the post was that ONE person got the BBC to change a storey
because she didn't agree with it. Did you even bother to look at the link?
