I spent a little time at SkepticForum this morning trying to continue my dialogue with Jim and da boyz. It's flabbergasting the important stuff they totally refuse to acknowledge. Their absolutist contempt for the experts who study these geophysical realities is another horror show in 'disconnect'. As for their endlessly contrived Gish Gallops it's impossible to keep up with it all - That's why it's important to stand back once in a while and review the big picture.
What I keep struggling with is trying to comprehend how folks can allow their own personal political inclinations and personal convictions and egos - which we all possess to one degree or other - to so totally blind themselves to what's happening in front of their faces. Like, come on already, refusing to admit mistakes and to learn from new lessons is a pretty dang crazy way to go through life.

This is both my personal learning project and my contribution in the struggle to confront the ongoing Republican/ libertarian assault on rational science and constructive learning, as manifested in their malicious strategic Attacks on Science ~ A collection of articles, scientific resources, plus my own essays and indepth critique of various presentations from unidirectional-skeptics ~ Hopefully a resource for the busy, yet discerning, student who's concerned about the health of our Earth
