		<description>They say that sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, but personally I&#039;d rather have some wit at all than live in the abusive and humour-free world of the NZ Scientology blogs</description>

		<description>Lisa,

Lovely. With insights like that, you can stick around as much as you like.

You might notice that we&#039;re not too far from descending into puerile sarcasm; do you notice the illustration with the next post: a carving of an ugly peasant sucking his foot? So I reckon that if PS is done with cleverness, you can get away with it. People sometimes even applaud.

If you&#039;re an expert, we would enjoy watching you practice the ancient, noble art of PS here.</description>

		<description>You guys are great, detailed and accurate in your valid criticisms.

Me?  I&#039;m totally IN to puerile sarcasm...  maybe I&#039;ll ban myself from embracing that here, but I find it, along with ALL forms of free expression, my right as a human to utilize whenever I feel like it...

Truth doesn&#039;t matter to AGW religionists, just their FEELINGS. They KNOW man is hurting the planet with their CO2... contrary to any actual SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE... they FEEL it so it MUST be SO...

Ok, I&#039;ll take my puerile comments home to my sandbox now...

		<description>As always, Andy, you talk sense. I&#039;d love a proper debate, too. You can be confident that Ken will be refuted, not insulted.</description>

		<description>Richard, I wouldn&#039;t respond to these comments.

There are a few subplots in this blog. You have your particular issues with NIWA and the 7SS.
A few of us exchange links and references that we might find interesting. Whether this is an &quot;echo chamber&quot; or some kind of self-reinforcing &lt;em&gt;weltanschauung&lt;/em&gt; is open to debate.
Personally, I&#039;d love the opportunity to have a different point of view expressed here so we can have an open and honest discussion. Prof Hunter&#039;s recent comments indicate that this is off the agenda.

Nevertheless, I appreciate the opportunity to present ideas and links, or whatever (hopefully avoiding puerile sarcasm), without a bunch of aggressive and rude commenters intimidating you with emotional arguments and appeals to authority.</description>
