"Roman numerals? They never even _tried_ to teach us that in school." The Shelbyville kids pound on the door.

Bart: [on walkie talkie] Milhouse! What's seven in roman numerals?

Milhouse: I'll tell you, Bart, but you really should end each transmission with the word "over". Over!

Milhouse2: [snatching Milhouse's walkie talkie] Correction: the only thing that's over is this transmission.

Milhouse: Is this the untimely end of Milhouse?

Milhouse2: [pause] But Milhouse is my name!

Milhouse: But I thought I was the only one!

Milhouse2: [shakes head] A pain I know all too well.

Milhouse: So this is what it feels like...when doves cry.


Bart: [into walkie talkie] Milhouse...Milhouse! _Now_ what do I do? [pounding on outside door gets louder] I got it...I got it! [opens door IX; a tiger springs at him; he slams it] I don't got it. Think, Bart. _Where_ have you seen roman numerals before? I know...Rocky V ["vee"]! That was the fifth one. So, Rocky five plus Rocky two equals...Rocky VII! "Adrian's Revenge"!

If The Scientific Truth Is Inconvenient, Publish your Own Truth!

Posted by Dan Satterfield

A fellow meteorologist pointed me to a web-site today about a new scientific society called the Open Atmospheric Society (OAS), which is apparently in the process of organizing. They have a fancy logo, and a list of membership requirements that look very similar to that of other scientific societies, until you start looking closely. When you do, things begin to look a rather strange.


The answer is easy to find, and all I had to do was check out the tab on their website that said “ABOUT”. Here below is what it says, with my highlighting:

The OAS is an international membership society for the purpose of studying, discussing, and publishing about topics in atmospheric related earth sciences, including but not limited to meteorology, hydrology, oceanography, and climatology. The OAS was designed to be an alternative to organizations like the AGU, AMS, AIP, and ACS, NAS, and AAAS that have become more political than scientific in the publication of climate position statements, publication gatekeeping, and media editorializing .

Now we get to the answer! It’s all that peer-reviewed science in those famous journals like Nature, Science, Journal of Climate, and the dozens of AGU journals that are the gold standard for peer-reviewed research. This society seems to be for those who want to publish their own peer-reviewed science about climate change, and members need no academic background in science? Anyone want to make a bet that their first edition has at least two papers showing that a paper published in one of those big journals is all wrong about climate change? Then will come the claim that their peer-reviewed journal is as good as those published by the AMS, AGU,AAAS, etc.

Except it’s not, and will not be.

This certainly seems to be a silly attempt, by those who think that all that published science on climate (in dozens of journals worldwide) is wrong. The answer is to publish their own scientific truth, under the guise of modern science. This isn’t that surprising, since they must have noticed that the news media has quit giving them equal time with those who have published real science.

The mail arrives.

Homer: Woo-hoo! A perfect day. Zero bears and one big fat hairy paycheck. [opens it up] Hey! How come my pay is so low? ... Bear patrol tax! This is an outrage! It's the biggest tax increase in history!

Lisa: Actually, Dad, it's the smallest tax increase in history.

Homer: Let the bears pay the bear tax. I pay the Homer tax.

Lisa: That's home-_owner_ tax.

Homer: Well, anyway, I'm still outraged.
