I have cases, and I mean cases of old spray bottles with the real bad ozone depletion chemicals inside that cause global warming, or so they say.

We went through a real cold spell a few weeks ago and I was outside for hours and emptied out at least 100 cans of the ozone depletion chemicals and it never warmed up, it actually dropped 5 degrees…

 

LOL...that is hilarious...I dont know about all of it but I know the R-12 claim was/is a crock of crap!

 

I guess you are getting buried up there about now.
My peoples up there told me heap big snow was coming.:santa:

 

If this continues we will be officially called the state of Alaska next Monday…

The Polar ice caps have melted and are now landing in New Hampshire…

 

I was thinking the other day on my drive home from work that there can not be anything good about hell.

Well, I think I have found “one” good thing about hell…

You don’t have to shovel freaking snow…

 

I wonder if McDonalds farts would work as well, their food is greasy (great for lubrication) and goes to work almost imediately after consumption...LOL

 

Where does oil come from?


I thought everyone knew it comes from the oil-fairy.

 

LMAO! Great photoshopping!

 

i dont care where it comes from just lower damn gas prices sheesh. i gotta buy 93 or greater lol its a killer then 20 bucks get me like 3/8's of a tank

 

ozone depletion has nothing to do with global warming. Actually, having less ozone cools the upper atmosphere and could infact mask any global warming, if it exists. Ozone absorbs UV rays and converts them into massive amounts of heat. Less ozone= less heat.

 

Agreed , here in NJ they are going to tack on a 10cent/gal tax to pull the public transportation authourity out of untold debt. Great something else I get to pay for but never use, I shoulda bought a D_MN bus!!!

 

we are constantly bombarded by xrays, gamma rays, cosmic rays, etc. (all the ones that can do some damage in excess) from outer space and natural sources here on earth. All man can do is harness and control a natural process.

 

That is why I line my hat with aluminum-foil, and stuff cotton in my ears. Ooooh, did I say that out loud??? LOL! (Know of a guy in my area who does this. He swears anyone who doesn't is controlled by government computers. Through gamma rays!) I MUST OBEY....

 

It was the European Giotto probe that did a flyby of halley's comet back in '86. The surface is indeed very dark, but I wouldn't call it tar-like. It consists of black dust very similar in composition to a type of meteorite called a carbonaceous chondrite (sp?). The main gasses in the coma (cloud/tail around a comet) are water vapor, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and formaldehyde.

Interesting fact--Halley didn't discover 'Halley's comet', cavemen did. He was, however the first person to predict when it would return.

Anyway, Halley's comet is a short period comet; it orbits the sun every 76 years, so it never really gets too far from the sun, and has made countless numbers of laps around the solar system. Everytime a comet passes the sun, a percentage of it's ices boil off. Considering all the times Halleys has made its lap, there isn't a whole lot of ices left in it to boil off. It is more dust than ice, and most of the interesting compounds are long gone. That's why it appears so asteroid like. As comets go, it's pretty boring. All short period comets are like this.

The ones that are very beautiful and chemically diverse are long period comets. Hale-Bopp, arguably the most beautiful comet ever, won't be back for another 4000 years. It would be very interesting to get a probe such as Giotto to a long period comet, but the problem is, we never know when one will pop up, and would have very little time to organize, and launch a probe. Impossible.
