Climate Reality: Ooops! I missed it.

16 Comments

I trotted over to WUWT and noticed The Climate Reality/Gore-a-thon was on hour 24. Josh’s final cartoon appears to be



The 24 hour ‘whatever-cast’ was still on. So, I’m listening to Gore say something about a mudslide in Korea. It evidently rained a lot. Memphis was impacted. (Yep. Knew that.) Rain… more rain… more rain…. I wonder if he’s already done drought or if that’s next? You can listen to the last how ever many minutes here.

I can’t imagine anyone could watch more than 30 minutes of this. I’m going to go watch a Bollywood movie.

I guess tomorrow we’ll here reaction from news media types who will no doubt interview scientists for their reaction. I think the first question in any interviewer should ask someone whose opinion they : How many minutes did you watch? The second should be: Did you multi-task while watching? (I’m writing this blog post now.)

(Sorry… did Gore just talk about rolling 16’s on dice while I was writing that last sentence?! Dang! I wish I could rewind!)

So, did any of you watch this? How many minutes?

Update: Did he just say if you go out on a cold day you don’t sweat and if you go out on a hot day you sweat. Does the context suggest this has something to do with the reason why warm air holds more water vapor? I better stop watching while multi-tasking. Time for the Bollywood movie.

  2. The last piece of floe ice in the Arctic floated past the drowning polar bear… far too weak to climb onto the floe. His last thought: those damned conservatives.

  3. I forgot about this, so didn’t watch any of it, but even if I had remembered it, I doubt if I could have forced myself to watch more than 3 min., let alone 30.
    The worrying thing is that there are people who appear to hang on every word he utters and believe it implicitly. Can they not think for themselves?
    The good thing is that there appears to have been very little publicity given to the event, at least in the U.K.

  6. I started watching during the first few hours and all they were doing was showing pictures of flooded cities. Boring. I have a giant, 450 page pdf of extreme weather events starting around 150 A.D. Droughts and famines dominate history, its nothing new.

  7. Just another nail in the “C” AGW coffin. Al keeps trying to scare us into belief in his religion and it’s not working. When he actually begins to practice what he preaches and lives on 1/10th of the average households annual energy needs, someone might begin to take him seriously. As it stands now he consumes 100 times the average annual household energy needs (mostly electricity from coal generation and jet fuel) and assuages his guilt by buying carbon credits. Even a 5 year old can smell the hypocrisy.

    Earth to Al: If you want people to follow you, lead by example.

    The thing about Bollywood is both men and women are eye candy, dressed in an alluring way and dance provocatively. Heck, even older folks are shown in a flattering light.

    Of course, the stories are all the same and silly. But it’s a lot of fun.

  11. Josh– No. This post is just what other people wrote. Honestly, I suspect very few of them even watched it all day. Most people like to sleep sometimes.

  13. Have you check out JPOP lately??

    No.

    Good eye candy on both sides too!

    I did a quick google of JPOP and found videos featureing women. I googled “JPOP men”. No men-as-eye candy. Unless you provide me links to attractive men, dressed provocatively doing fun dance moves, I’m sticking with Bollywood.

    Oh. Yeah. And the guys need to look older than 15 yo.

  14. Lucia, I was attempting to be humorous, like you were describing Al’s special day…

    As in

    … But it’s a lot of fun.
    There are some good stories. With thousands of movies released, it’s hard to find them. The most memorable one for me may be Devdas. If you find one, pass it on!

  16. Lucia:
    I was perhaps to specific in saying JPOP, I actually meant all the various Asian Pop groups (i.e. KPOP, TPOP, CPOP, etc). I was first introduced to Asian pop via JPOP, so I tend to refer to all of them as JPOP. My apologies.

    TPOP (Taiwan POP)
    Fahrenheit is good, not sure if provocative enough though 🙂

    My favorite group female group is actually a KPOP band called Girls Generation:
    This song is called Gee, it is real fun 🙂

    As far as I can tell all the bands are over 15.
