I generally swagger around with a bit of confidence/arrogance to gain attention/make an entrance, ignore any mail or interest for weeks or months, maintain activity on the boards interacting with those who have mailed me which seems to frustrate and garner even more interest from them into the mailbox.
Once I've identified a person who I am attracted to I'll contact her and reveal my real personality or character and drop the facade.
I generally don't chase.
This may not be the most polite method to attract prospective partners, but it's my experience in the initial stages of courtship with women it pays to play hard to get.
Cat, I was actually genuinely interested that there perhaps existed convincing scientific evidence that all planets are warming at the same rate due to the sun's effect. That would be very interesting to me and challenge my current position on global warming.
cat, Surely you must agree if you are going to make claims or assertions like "Astronomers say that every planet in our solar system is warming up to the same degree" to support your argument that global warming is probably a farce, you carry the burden of proof to support that claim.
The second one had this "As for Abdussamatov’s claim that solar fluctuations are causing Earth’s current global warming, Charles Long, a climate physicist at Pacific Northwest National Laboratories in Washington, says the idea is nonsense.
Not one article you're provided (and articles aren't peer reviewed papers) supports your claim " Astronomers say that every planet in our solar system is warming up to the same degree".
I have to say, cat, you may have represented your claim as poorly as anyone could. Sorry. If you could find that peer reviewed paper, I'm really interested in reading that.
Peer Reviewed - "Peer review is the evaluation of work by one or more people of similar competence to the producers of the work (peers). It constitutes a form of self-regulation by qualified members of a profession within the relevant field. Peer review methods are employed to maintain standards of quality, improve performance, and provide credibility. In academia, scholarly peer review is often used to determine an academic paper's suitability for publication."
Cat, can you point me toward any peer reviewed data, study or papers that show the above statement to be true? I can't find any. I have found commentary or opinion that a few planets have increased in temperature, but it is suggested these planets increase in temperatures are due to local factors. I can't find any peer reviewed information supporting "all planets are warming to the same degree".
