"He's a fraud. An insane fraud."
....and so was Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot...
Read up sometime on the mass starvations of the Russian peoples under Lysenko whose INSANE genetics ideas of "acquired traits" killed millions. All due to Stalin's backing of his "politically correct" ideas that were forced on the people by the state.

Gore scares the HELL out of me...
Dr Fox is correct . So called " greenhouse gases " are triatomic molecules ( CO2 & H2O ) and affect radiant transfer causing temp shifts , whereas ....diatomic gases ( N2 /O2 , etc ) by and large do not .
Fractions of gases in air by volume : N2 =0.7808 ;
O2=0.2095; argon= 0.0093;
CO2 =0.0003 !!! ( ie , not a lot folks ) .
Enter something called water vapor ( moisture ) ...
not counting clouds .. by the way.
Rel. V(H2O)/ V(H2O)/
Hum. V(air) V(CO2)
10% .0017 5.67 (=.0017/.0003)
20% .0030 10.00
30% .0048 16.00
40% .0061 20.33
50% .0080 26.67
Hence CO2 would have to increase by
a factor of 5.67 to equal the effect of water vapor at very low humidity ( 10 % ) ...
assuming both gases are equivalent
in contribution to greenhouse
machinations . ...and so on ....by 26.67 to equal the effect of water vapor at 50 % RH .
How will the world reduce harmful water in the air ??? Will Rev Al
recommend that we ban showers, drain the lakes , put sky domes over our cities & trailers to keep out the rain ?? Have water offsets
for people who perspire too much ?
I suspect he will have some very effective measures to help us out through , let's see ( ? ) , government intervention , once he learns of this new and potent but overlooked boogie man "H2O" ...in his extensive scientific studies and ratiocination .
This could be a warning label...Al Gore SFB.
You learn something every day here. I had never heard of Lysenko and Lysenkoism, but the parallels to today's "Algorean science" is really quite striking. Thanks for the link, anon. Drake
Ditto on the Lysenko link. That's a good parallel. Also, good for the use of the dialectic in Science. (Dialectic is one of my pet peeves--that's why I left teaching.)
