Uh.
there is no way to tell from the information given.
the car could go for more that 50 feet and run over someones pet turtle. the owner of the turtle could see the license plate, and notice the car months from now, in a different city and plow into the car from pure spite and revenge. he really loved that turtle.
Steve you have a potentially logic argument if what he meant by “reversed” was that CO2 values would have to be be down to 280PPM by 2000.
What I took to mean by “reversed, is the CO2 increase would have to be beginning to be reversed by 2000 and actual CO2 values would start to decrease at some point soon after in order to prevent the projected temp increase that would result in sea level rise and other factors that would cause “drowning”. In that case then the drowning would certainly only have have to occur significantly after 2000.
Tell that to Tony over there on your other string. Does he think that if nothing were to be done by the year 2000, the chaos would start at that exact point but we may not know for years to come? Why make such as statement with such a specific date when it is so easily falsified. I suppose he thinks that if the predicted catastrophe happens in the year 5000 as opposed to 2000 he has been proven correct.
Nonsense. The trend could reverse in 4999 and the drowning would never happen. The only logical result of the UN statement is that the drowning occurs in 2000.
Within fifty feet.
Accident will occur with my laptop smashed against the wall if you don’t stop posting without links pics or charts.
“If this car”……..which frigging CARRRRR??????
The accident occurs fifty feet away.
I have to break ranks here (calmed down after a couple hour snooze, been mopping flood water 8 hours straight)
Not enough info.
For example, “mate, if you don’t get your brake pads replaced within 1000km, you’ll have an accident” said the mechanic at Pedders.
The statement only means my pads will have outlived their usefullness within 1000km. But an accident? that may happen 5,10,100,200km later.
Your question is only solid if there is a brickwall or some structure that the car will run into at 50 ft
Analogy isn’t comparable.

“If global warming is not *reversed* by the year 2000”
The only logical conclusion is that the drowning occurs in 2000. Do you understand what *reversed* means?

LOL
Once again, a devastating rebuttal form Steve.
?Within 15 years” (i.e 2001) said Goddard Space Flight Honcho James Hansen, ?global temperatures will rise to a level which hasn?t existed on earth for 100,000 years?. http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=n39JAAAAIBAJ&sjid=pgsNAAAAIBAJ&pg=4671,5141658&dq=james-hansen+desert&hl=en
Tony, while juggling, did you miss a few ball and they happened toland on your head?

Deanna,
technically he would be right if the predicted event happened in the year 5000. That makes the quote pretty worthless.
Nonsense. The trend could reverse in 4999 and the drowning would never happen. The only logical result of the UN statement is that the drowning occurs in 2000.
“That makes the quote pretty worthless.”
Word.
So, if one prediction of climate apocalypse is “pretty much worthless”, what about the other 1,000,001?
I would have said fifty feet but James Hansen gave me a measuring tape made out of gum rubber. Now it’s any distance you want.
Have learned a new word today so let me use it again…AGW’s most clear effect has been an increase in a particular type of fog…pettifog that is.
Within 15.24 meters or
Within 600 inches or
within 1524 centimetres or
within 0.009469 miles or
within 1.610869271e-15 lightyears
It is good to wake to laughter!!!!!!
Thank you TONY!
Mike,
You are welcome.
