Eric,
I just got back from a year in Iraq. Great to see you still posting. I got back to America just in time to see the TEA Party movement have its first convention, bringing together deniers of Climate Change like Steve Milloy, who led the tobacco industry effort to deny the link between cancer and smoking, and anti-intellectual, anti-science people from all over the country. I hope you are doing well.
Neil

"Our oil dollars famously go to autocratic nations that hate us." I agree, we need to develop technologies that will make us less dependent of these countries, but also we should rethink our external policies and relationships with those countries.

The person has a very analytical approach towards life and is interested in solving the secrets of the carbon age and it before mankind.

Eric--I have Joan Jett's "I Hate Myself for Loving You" for my work ringtone and "Jesus Walks" for family. It is fun, but REALLY embarrassing if I don't switch to SILENT before a meeting. Neil

So, does this debunk the "myth" that solar energy is "new" technology?

It was more astonishing to see it as a young boy in school. We'd watched Hemo the Magnificent, The Restless Sea, Our Mr. Sun, etc. All first-rate movies and accurate on the science. They were made by Bell Labs and our commie-fightin, Sputnik catching government. They were full of new material and fascinating insights. But that stupid clip came out of nowhere; man it troubled me. I thought about it for several days.

How could something so completely implausible be real? Why had I never heard anything about it before? Why would movies with standards so high chose to include a 'stupid' claim like that?

And at ~ age eleven I began to focus on anything in the media that mentioned the Ice Age, ancient climates and latter, CO2 warming. And more than forty years after that the puzzle fits (unfortunately) together.

The movie came out the year Keeling began his measurements, so writers must have talked with theoretical experts. Roger Revelle was also in S. Calif, but I suppose it might have been others.
