Okay. I'll go real sloooooow and use as many simple and single syllable words as possible. Nobody said Greenland was ice free. The point is there was less ice 800 years BEFORE the industrial revolution than there is today. Some argue MUCH less. That brings up an interesting question, don't...

Here is a view from the opposite end of the spectrum: Report: Antarctic Ice Growing, Not Shrinking "Ice is expanding in much of Antarctica, contrary to the widespread public belief that global warming is melting the continental ice cap. The results of ice-core drilling and sea ice...

Perhaps you should read a little slower--->"...how high will the temperature need to go to melt the antarctic ice, the ice that is actually on land? " The Interior The interior of Antarctica receives the most indirect rays from the sun which makes it cooler. For long periods in the winter it...

Penske has lost his mind. His dealerships are all hurting and he invests capital with Saturn? For the sake of PAG stockholders, I hope Government Motors cut him one helluva deal with a lot of guarantees.

Yes, but how high will the temperature need to go to melt the antarctic ice, the ice that is actually on land? (Hint: the coldest day recorded in the antarctic is 11 degrees colder than dry ice). And like the other poster mentioned, Greenland was named GREENland for a reason. Obviously, the...

Yes, just keeps going. I didn't like them at $95. It hit $82 and all of sudden they're worth almost twice that amount. Thoughts of irrationality and solvency come to mind.

There's a shortage of females in China? I thought drowning girl babies in China was BS. Guess I was wrong.

A little off topic here, but I wish a gold bug would explain to me how we divide 145K metric tons by the world's wealth. I mansion would be worth an ounce of gold and six bars of gold would buy the new Yankee stadium. The gold standard worked just fine pre-industrial revolution, but how...

They claim Finerman is worth a couple hundred million. If it's true, compared to Terranova and Guy, she's a financial genius.

Don't get me wrong. The market should decide**. My point was that the jobs created are of such low quality they offer very little to this fragile economy or even a strong economy. **Unless, of course, the business is a monopoly which China-Mart damn near is by virtue of shear size and...

Go, NASA, go! I love the way the tree huggers have closed the debate because they know all the answers. In some circles, if you want to have an open discussion on global warming, people will look at you like you're some kind of leper or smoking a cigarette.

After a quick check, the fed minimum wage is $7.25. Washington's minimum wage is $8.55, Cali is $8.00, San Fran is almost $10.00, Oregon is $8.40, Mass is $8.00 and Vermont is $8.06. China-Mart doesn't like to release this type of info for obvious reasons but their CLAIM is in the $9 range...

Link please. I like to check the facts if possible (like how much higher than the other China-Mart clones? Two cents or two dollars?). Until I find out otherwise, I'm going to assume the number you heard on CNBC is the average pay for hourly wage employees and almost everyone at China-Mart is...

22K more minimum wage jobs (while simultaneously squeezing out the competition). That's just what this economy needs. It's hard to walk in this jungle of green shoots. Maybe a collapse in the dollar isn't such a bad thing. At least China-Mart would have to take a second look at its...

Sounds good. C should gap up 20% tomorrow and then another 20% on rumors S&P will kick them out of the index.

Rogers is such a drama queen. Become a farmer? Really, Jim? Sounds like somebody lied about being short and got caught in this 40% move up. S&P 50K here we come.

They found a sucker to buy Hummer? Wow.

Our exports would increase exponentially, the trade deficit would disappear overnight (cost too much to import and the world can't pass on our cheap exports), we would pay through the nose for oil (until we got off our asses and built more nuclear reactors, wind mills, geothermal generators...

No kidding. He sounds like Butters from South Park.

You know the "GM goes, America goes" quote is like a half century old, right? GM hasn't made a profit in 5 years. It's a subsidized basket case that needed to go bankrupt to flush out the old system. By the way, the Dow is up 40% in three months. Has it ever crossed your mind that there's...
