DD Lets look at the facts, just the facts.  Then lets use instincts not 
emotions to analyze those facts. Always works for me. By the way? Where are your 
investments? Who pays your paycheck? Mother nature pays mine, always has. 
Started my landscape business in 1980 at age 19 to corner the supply of raw urban 
Biomass for experiments.

DD Who cares about qualifications? I have based my long range business 
decisions upon my keen observations of what was happening around mein 3-D. When the 
weather service ignored my able predictions of tornados because I had no 
degree, it told me something. It is more important to most educated types to get 
credit for something than to save lives. I use my info to help or save my 
friends and to hell with anyone who doesn't care to listen. I don't need someone's 
opinion when my friend needs mouth to mouth.

DD Nope, I started studying climatology after running out of room to learn 
studying severe storms. I wanted the bigger picture!  Now I work to change the 
weather- and do. Most of the people I know were personally affected by the 
great  Xenia, Tornado of 1974.  The in the words of Dr. Fajita " a possible F-6", 
the most powerful tornado in recorded history. I was personally caught in the 
hail storm from it. 
DD My first solo trips when I learned to drive, included chasing every severe 
storm that crossed my path, from one end of the country to the other. The 
first climatology books I studied in the late 1970's were all all based on 
nothing but pure historic data gathered from every possible resource.

DD Knock, knock wake up >>  yes when organic soil components are warmed it 
does release methane and CO2- quickly. Methane is a real culprit.  What happens 
then, is the water cycle reacts to quench the "fire" with tremendous storms. 
Hello!!!  I'm a landscaper - don't tell me about my soil.  Ever dry a soil test 
sample?  If you get it hot, forget the carbon measurements. 

DD Sunspot activity and volcanos are the obvious things that can change 
quickly and intensly enough to temporarily override the water cycle corrections. 
The question is, What happens to the heat after it accumulates on the earths 
surface? Not, how did it get there? That is only reading the input side, not the 
output. Walk outside soaking wet on a clear night, it might clear some things 
up, like your stuffy head.

DD Nope, I made my mind up in 1988 during a drought. I was up often at night 
watching the weather channel satellite shots and hiking outside at night. You 
could really see clearly what the heat transfer mechanisim of the earth was 
doing to compensate. 
DD And by the way, what do you call scientific method?  Pouring chemicals 
into test tubes, reading computer screens, or crunching math?  Try the ultimate 
test- do the experiment outdoors your own body, making a living hourly or not 
with the results!  I have been a student pilot and an avid deep caver, friends 
are mountain climbers, divers, and farmers.  I observe all three levels of the 
earth as it works. Don't piss me off now with your retoric.

DD My position is simple. It's not about simply the warming- it's about 
energising the water cycle which transfers heat from the earth to outer space. When 
you have a clear night it is easy for infarred to escape to space. On a foggy 
night the temperature becomes stable. For example, do you have any idea what 
the latent thermal capacity of frost on the grass can do to a climate model?  
DD Who gives a rats ass about Al Gore?  I want to know how much snow I'm 
going to plow, or when the next Katrina is going to hit.  Usually I'm right, way 
more than wrong. I was setting up my post Katrina Mississippi forestry work as 
Rita was hitting. My sister was waiting out Katrina in Nashville with Disaster 
advance medical teams- we knew what was comming. She was on the ground in 
Biloxi healing people who saw the eyewall before the National Guard was set up. 
DD  I spend a lot of time since 1990 in an experimental solar thermal 
greenhouse I designed. It is a micro climate model, complete with variable heat 
storage and rain on demand. I breathe this knowledge, I don't ask a so called 
expert who lives indoors about my outdoor environment. I have been outside when 
every weather record has been set day or night since I was old enough to shovel 
snow and work a garden.  I have nearly a decade of severe storms videotaped, 
and over two decades in pictures. 

DD Oh yea, isn't this more a topic for the Bioenergy list than the 
Bioconversion list? Shows what you REALLY know hu?  Lets talk Ethanol from retention 
pond catails on my jobs potentially fueling my trucks. How about wood chip 
producer gas to gasoline done on the farm with FT process. How about the global 
effect of gasifying, carbonising all demolition wastewood as energy for the steel 
industry? Now that's Bioconversion. Yea, I'm working on it, give me a Damn 
minute.
