Does Al Gore Finally Get It?

Fireball, Being a Scientist in an earlier life I understand facts about ice and volume loss when it changes state. It's the melting of ice on land that the alarmists say will ultimately cause sea levels to rise. Very few who own beachside real estate are embracing such thoughts even though it is exploited ad nauseum by the "greenies" for their own political motives.

Re Silex Systems Limited [SLX] - I have to be honest - I don't know anything about it except for that available on the Australian Securities Exchange website. Herewith link to SLX:

Thought our All Ordinaries Index bottomed on July 16 but how SLX fits into that cycle I have no thoughts. Good luck.

Does Al Gore Finally Get It?

Thought provoking but far from convincing.

Re forecast shortages of oil. Reminds me of my University Lecturer on the topic of Corrosion early 1960 - "if the world doesn't control corrosion of iron products the world will run out of iron before the end of the century". Over the next 5 years enough iron ore was found in western Australian alone to supply the world for hundreds of years. Much more has been found in the same State over the past 40 years. When oil explorers are freed from the shackles imposed by Governments I have no doubts additional large fields will be found. Emotive responses have sidelined uranium from discussion over past 40 years. It's time for it to return to the mainstream of debate.

Far from the earth heating up, facts from the past 10 years show otherwise, it's been cooling! Like everything to do with the Universe cycles exist everywhere, even in climate. Old Testament book - Ecclesiastes speaks about the seasons and the times to sow, reap and cast out etc and concludes: "there is nothing new under the sun". Quite clear - it's all happened before. Lets face it, man wasn't cause of the previous cycles so what was? Methinks political spin is being used for ulterior motives.

I live is Sydney, Australia and much of OZ has long coastal foreshores. If sea levels were going to rise, due to icecap melting in the near term, then we could expect an exodus to higher ground. Strange, no ones selling - in fact prices continue to rise [not sea levels], so punters believe otherwise. I think the punters are on the ball and far from convinced.
