I think it's pretty clear that you both do. If one of you gets them, please share with the other.

From Salon.com - a prediction

While doing research 12 or 13 years ago, I met Jim Hansen, the scientist who in 1988 predicted the greenhouse effect before Congress. I went over to the window with him and looked out on Broadway in New York City and said, “If what you’re saying about the greenhouse effect is true, is anything going to look different down there in 20 years?” He looked for a while and was quiet and didn’t say anything for a couple seconds. Then he said, “Well, there will be more traffic.” I, of course, didn’t think he heard the question right. Then he explained, “The West Side Highway [which runs along the Hudson River] will be under water. And there will be tape across the windows across the street because of high winds. And the same birds won’t be there. The trees in the median strip will change.” Then he said, “There will be more police cars.” Why? “Well, you know what happens to crime when the heat goes up.”

And so far, over the last 10 years, we’ve had 10 of the hottest years on record.

Didn’t he also say that restaurants would have signs in their windows that read, “Water by request only.”

Under the greenhouse effect, extreme weather increases. Depending on where you are in terms of the hydrological cycle, you get more of whatever you’re prone to get. New York can get droughts, the droughts can get more severe and you’ll have signs in restaurants saying “Water by request only.”

When did he say this will happen?

Within 20 or 30 years. And remember we had this conversation in 1988 or 1989.

So, what exactly is your point?

A scientist in the late 80's made a prediction that didn't come true?

Now, instead of responding to my every post, you're responding even when I DON'T post.

Don't do that. Things are fucked up enough here without dragging me into shit I'm not part of.

Enjoy your hysteria about bad things not happening fast enough for you.

The scientist who lectured Congress about "the Greenhouse effect"

No global warming prediction has come true yet, and we have passed the tipping point for most all of these hysterical predictions a while back

And BTW. Last year, restaurants in California were offering water by request only.

Good. If you don't care, then leave me out of it.

And no, I don't drag you into threads. You generally show up. Others may do that -- I don't really pay that much attention, not being the hall monitor.
