Reading your blog has been very interesting and informative. Thank you.

One point I haven't seen mentioned, which The Nation journalist Alexander Cockburn has pointed out, is that the evidence for CO2 being a driver of climate change is not there. In fact, the evidence may suggest the precise opposite. According to what I have seen of data from ice core samples, rises in CO2 which correspond to rises in temperature may actually be an effect: there is an 800 year lag between CO2 and temperature changes -- changes in CO2 follow temperature (Al Gore doesn't mention this!). This is the fundamental assumption behind AGW, is it not?

When I heard of this, I wanted to see a convincing rebuttal in the scientific literature, someone who could please explain to me how CO2 could drive temperature changes when the graphs are showing it 800 years behind! I have yet to see one.

I'm sure that our present-day situation may be judged differently, since we definitely have more CO2 in the air, much of it resulting from fossil fuel sources. Nobody looking at the data will deny that CO2 has risen dramatically in the last 150 years. But the fundamental hypothesis that CO2 drives climate change has to be proven by data and a scientific interest in discovering the truth based on observation and study of nature and our biosphere.

To review, Home Invasion is a term coined by police departments to describe a burglary of a home when the occupants are there. Most burglaries occur when the occupants are not at home because quite frankly the perpetrators don't need the added stress of dealing with people who might be armed and angry. What a mess that would be.

Private Equity Investor Gilabert Keith and the American Federation for Aging Research (AFAR) has backed the technology of significantly more healthy ageing. AFAR has played a significant role in providing and advancing understanding of aging and mechanisms of age-related disease through providing start-up grants to even more than 2,600 early-career researchers. AFAR uniquely focuses on scientists studying the fundamental mechanisms of aging. With AFAR's support, early-career scientists with the nation's leading academic institutions are earning the study of aging - in every of the company's facets - their life's work. The scientists that AFAR has supported have provided scientific discoveries crucial that are already dramatically changing both our understanding and employ of drugs.
