The climate grift #358

Fairy Nuff. I just wish more people wouldn't criticise what they can't understand. That's why, ceteris paribus, I tend to go with the academic consensus.

The writers and critics who prophesize with their pen? They should keep their eyes wide, the chance wont come again....

SAY IT AIN'T SO GG!!!

'Fraid so, WES. Never really got into the Stones. I reckon it was having 2 Scousers in my posse at uni. They got me into Dylan and Floyd, but because of The Beatles, I think they refused to believe there was another band at the same time.

Btw, LSE in '89 had loads of Scousers there. You'd see them in the common room and all they'd say was "The Beatles, la. Bill Shankly, la." I didn't know what this meant so I got a Lonely Planet Scouse-English phrasebook. Apparently it translates as "We have the greatest rock band and the greatest football team in history. Bow down before your new Scouse overlords."

{Though tbf, it was the fact that they were so gracious about Anfield '89 that meant I really got on with them. And living with 2 in my second year when we won the league 1990-91, beating them home and away, again they were gracious in defeat and respected us for deserving the title.}

But I prefer Daltrey's voice. I prefer Pete Townsend's guitar. I prefer the Mod vibe. And the rhythm section blows the Stones away. Basically, Keef Moon's an inspiration to us all.

Some people find The Stones a bit dull. **** knows why, but there you go....

Townshend hated Keith Moon's drumming. He felt it ruined the songs and forced everyone else to do his job and keep time.

Daltrey has a great voice but Mick is basically the Jesus of rock n roll frontmen. It all comes from him.

Beggars Banquet/ Sticky Fingers/ Let it Bleed/ Exile on Main Street/ Goats Head Soup. Greatest run of rock albums ever made and you don't need the rest of it. You can find the roots of virtually every rock band since in those albums.

Any band you can't find in there, you'll find in The Who.

Good call on GHS there, Peter, very underrated. Angie, Heartbreaker, Silver Train and Star Star, there's four very good songs just there.

Winter is a great song

I used to work in forensic healthcare, g.

20 clinicians in a room.

20 different diagnoses made.

20 people in the room believe theirs is correct and the other 19 are wrong.

Science, eh?

Quite, the whole point of science is to question it. Climate change seems the exception

I think GGs point is that is quite normal. So on the rare times when all 20 actually agree......

There is huge funding available to those wishing to question/ challenge/ disrupt the orthodoxy of climate change. You have to ask why nobody has conducted anything even approaching legitimacy.

I like The Clash, but no!

Has to be said, London have never been awash with world class bands.......

Apparently it has. There was a map doing the rounds awhile ago, showing the all of the London boroughs and the prominent bands each had spawned. Mostly highly-questionable stuff but with the caveat that since the industry was traditionally centred in London, almost all of them could vaguely claim to hail from the capital.

The only real funding is from the oil industry for this.

And any outcome will be shot down because it is funded by the oil industry.

plenty of disputers who've had funding cut.

Michael Mann hockey stick still being used, even though it's been disproved and plenty of climatards pushing for prison sentences for people disputing it.
