			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey!  I’ve got an idea.</p>
<p>As the “life and death” 11 day summit on global warming marches on in Copenhagen, scientists are joining together in a single ominous voice to damn all of advanced society for the conveniences we so callously employ without thought of the fatal damage we are inflicting upon our fragile planet.</p>
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t have high hopes,&#8221; said Josefino Comiso, a senior scientist at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. &#8220;But I hope that the participants could get to a good plan on how to minimize green house gas emissions.  &#8220;We need to change our mind frame &#8211; our values,&#8221; said Rasmus Benestad of the Norwegian Meteorological Institute.  He went on to say “In this problem, I think we are seeing the worst of ourselves in the mirror.&#8221;</p>
<p>The problem being discussed by these learned men, whose very livelihood depends on governmental funding for manmade global warming research, is that we fat cat Americans and other technologically advanced societies are too concerned about our creature comforts to care about the impact they are having on our environment and our society as a whole.  Ahhhh….Ted Kaczynski would be proud.</p>
<p>My first thought as I watched these men of science approach the lectern to continue their relentless onslaught against all things modern was “How do they walk with balls that big?”.</p>
<p>You see, here is my idea.  If they are so worried about all the damage being done to the ozone by the unbridled use of modern conveniences why would insist on flying scientists from all around the globe, and truck massive loads of support equipment to Copenhagen?  The last manmade global warming summit was held as part of the G8 conference this past July in Italy.  Once again, for that summit, planeloads of beard-stroking deep thinkers were flown in to express their overwhelming disapproval of the use of carbon emitting equipment, like the plane they flew in on.   From there all the necessary support equipment was crated up and trucked to Copenhagen where the same pointy heads flew into town to do it all over again.</p>
<p>They are calling this meeting a summit, I disagree.  Why not call it what it really is; an international sales meeting.</p>
<p>The scientists focusing in the area of manmade global warming create no product to generate a financial return other than their research.  Is it any wonder that their research would conclude that more funding for further study is necessary?  Is it any wonder that some of these high level research facilities would intentionally doctor the tests results to keep the cash flowing? </p>
<p>With the recent economic hardships most businesses are now facing many have chosen to limit travel expense and use the incredible advances in technology to hold their important meetings.  If manmade global warming is truly threatening to end life as we know it on planet earth, wouldn’t it be incumbent upon these saviors of mankind to hold their meeting via nonpolluting computer links rather than flying all the attendees and support personnel to Copenhagen for an 11 day getaway?</p>
<p>The scientific comments being freely distributed by these so called researchers does not jive with the actions of the commenter’s.   Rather than telling the world what we should be doing they should be showing the world how it’s done.</p>
<p>But perhaps shaming the United States and other wealthy nations into donating the large sums of money necessary to continue this charade is in fact exactly how it’s done.  Manmade global warming has become an industry unto itself.  The goal of this “sales meeting” is to expand that business.  No amount of truth or contrary data will be sufficient to force these funding fanatics to relinquish their death-grip on the world’s wallet.</p>
<p>I may not be a recognized expert in manmade global warming, but it doesn’t take a science degree to identify the source of all the hot air currently being emitted in Copenhagen.</p>
