… feel free to have endless circular discussions lasting for years over pretend science elsewhere, and leave this blog for the adults.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

Warning to everyone: if the data about today’s eruption is true, volcanic dust will be in the stratosphere and this means a wicked cold winter is coming.
I am already making plans to increase my firewood efforts in the forest this summer. And ‘summer’ has barely warmed anything so far, before this eruption. The volcanic dust will also increase snowfall.
Link please. I don’t watch TV or listen to the radio anymore. It keeps me from using a sledge hammer…
Found it.
Incredible photos by professional photographer from a commercial plane.

Awesome! Thanks Gail!
How large/small in relation to Pinatubo?
Australian airspace being effected.

Bang!
El Nino just expired….
.. oops. Sorry, perhaps I should have ‘touched wood’ before I wrote this….
“… We will have to wait and see what effects the next El Niño has on the global trend, providing that they are not masked by significant aerosols and **any possible eruptions**, and the effects of the other internal and external variables. … Too bad that we haven’t got another full-size Earth (and Sun, Moon) to experiment on!”

Oh my.
“It’s a veritacal Crackatoa” (sic)
If I recall the correctly, the closer to the equator the more the eruption affects the weather. (Blocks more sunlight.)
Looks nasty, don’t it ?
Looking at the pictures and from the estimated height of the ash cloud (12 mi) it seems similar to the impressive 2011 eruption of Grímsvotn in Iceland,
http://www.nationaljournal.com/pictures-grimsvotn-volcano-erupts-in-iceland-20110523
but it was a VEI-4 eruption and had no important effect on global climate.
Except it covered half of Vatnajokull in ash which will later be described by alarmists as ‘black carbon’.
The alarmists love volcanic eruptions.
– One faction will say it’s extreme weather caused by CO2 and it clearly proves the theory and shut up.
– Another will say it’s Gaia’s anger caused by CO2 and social injustice, and it clearly proves that opponents are devil worshipers and shut up.
– In a warmer year, all factions will rejoice that CO2 heated the planet so much not even a volcano could cool it down, which proves the theory and shut up.
– In a colder year, all factions will condescend it is actually hotter but it got unfairly cooled down which proves the theory and shut up.
Like all trained Marxists, they will have an answer to everything. Did I mention I live in Boulder?
Ms. Stuzman is railing against carbon in the Boulder Daily Camera. http://www.dailycamera.com/editorials/ci_25867682/carbon-and-power-plants
Alien non-carbon based life forms assembled themselves in several clusters in Colorado.
Destroying the foundation blocks of the existing free life is their primary directive.
The alien life forms are recognizable on their dialect of English although some legacy life is known to mimic them.
Scientific sampling:
You have my sympathy. Alien Californians spoil every beautiful place they move to. Several great places in Arizona were ruined because they showed up en masse and crapped all over them both physically and politically. Then they spread the disease of progressivism.
Yes. They move in clusters.
Eco fascists are not scientists but intolerant propagandists. Your blog offends their theology. Remember the Nazis based their evolutionary survival of the fittest fascism on 50 years of German scientific ‘proof’. Deniers were cremated.
You should get a load of Connolley. Pointman stomped him and he is polluting the blogs whining about it.
Oh, boy did Pointman stomp him. It was a really fun read.
Where? Did Connolley throw his toys from the pram?
On his blog (he linked to it on several others).
He is nobody. On every blog he’s a troll, on Wikipedia he was editor in chief. That says everything about Wikipedia.
Don’t waste a minute of your time on Connolley.
I would not say ‘stomp’, rather, Point did a really good job of, well, leading this character around by the nose using techniques Point knows works quite well on Connolley’s character type.
And the write-up is well done too. Worth reading for the edification of how to deal with one of these misanthropes*:
http://thepointman.wordpress.com/2014/05/29/the-scorning-of-william-connolley/
.
* misanthrope – One who has general hatred, distrust or disdain for the human species or human nature.
Thank you for the pointer to Pointy’s pointed explanation.
ROTFLMAO
It was great watching W.C. getting his rear-end handed to him live and even funnier served cold with Pointy’s annotations added.
Fortunately or unfortunately the fool keeps appearing at Joanne Nova’s blog ( http://joannenova.com.au ). He gets canned there as well, just not as adeptly as Pointman.
The lost egoist seems to be lonely, as he wanders from blog to blog trying get people to visit his own stoaty blog somewhere.
Steve,
The anti-capitalist crowd, of which capitalism-caused-carbon-pollution-alarmists are but a subset, has been all atwitter over their latest guru–the French economist Pikkety. His alarmist shrieks from his recent book about “income inequality” are picked up and echoed by the anti-capitalists.
Well, it looks like his “science” is turning out to be about as valid as Mann’s hockey stick art. His statistics and math are exposed here:

Kent
That is what is so great about the internet. The conmen get exposed very fast.
The shredding of that book also made it onto Breitbart

Steven, I share your frustration over “endless circular discussions lasting for years over pretend science.”
I also see signs of convergence in the conclusions of physical and social scientists, like Kent Clizbe: Stalin apparently emerged victorious from the ruins of WWII !
