Diesel exhausts do cause cancer, says WHO

[Osprey]

I didn't call you any names, that is unless you are confessing to being the 'idiot' out of the choices you had in front of you. Still, that didn't stop you from calling me a 'greenie liberal socialist' in the same sentence I prefer 'progressive' myself, that's opposite to 'luddite', those same sorts of people who opposed the train by claiming nonsense such as people would disintegrate if they travelled at over 30mph.

What I find ironic is that you are calling others socialists and liberals but then suggest that central Government fund development? Isn't that just what socialism is? Also, 'liberal' means believing in personal choice and freedom, so again, another oxymoron from you. You don't want it 'rammed down your throat' but you aren't a liberal?

Please try to understand the meanings of the words you are choosing because tbh it's making you look a bit dim old boy.

What ever gets you to sleep at night.. Eitherway, I just find it funny how you and yours have to resort to such tatics with anyone that disagrees with you.. Would be funny if it wasnt so sad.. Too bad too because it is an interesting topic.

When you mean 'tactics' you must mean knowledge.

If believing that makes you feel better about yourself..

More power to you!

No skin off my back..

All I ask is that in the future, if you really want to carry on a conversation with someone..

You would do well to set your troll like tendency aside..

Where you present the person your talking to with only two options to choose from (brainwashed or idiot)..

And than sit back and act surprised or worse yet try to play the part of the victim when said person calls you on your troll like actions.

Because your not fooling anyone here

Just a thought!

Let's just recap. You post a picture deriding future technology and people that want to move forward with it calling them names. When you get called something back you flip out and play victim?

Why don't you present us with at least something which shows that you understand the topic you are debunking and maybe then we might take you seriously because tbh you seem to be just completely obtuse on this. How else can one answer you? Better still, since you don't want to have these new technologies (which aren't new btw) rammed down your throat then please take the time to write to Ford, Honda, Toyota etc etc and let them know that they are wasting their time and money. You'll save millions for us all.

So let me see if I understand you correctly..

When I replied to Bewolf (not you) comment about improving technology..

By posting a picture of a guy pushing an alternative fuel vehical up a hill..

With the note that the first step would be to correct the lib definition of progress..

You consider that name calling?

Nice try..

But your still not fooling anyone

Nope, I never tried to play the part of the victim.. I simply pointed out how people like you have to resort to calling people names (brainwashed or idiot) when someone does not agree with you..

So you get a gold star for 'spin' effort

But no sale!

[Osprey]

People can read the thread if they want to. I consider calling people 'soc lib greenies' a name, but you appear to be struggling with all of your definitions today.

You are being just like Crumpp here, writhing for each reply and you don't even realise it. I'm not wasting my time any further, regardless of your knowledge of other topics when it comes to this one it's clear to me that you are just ignorant and a bit of a luddite. It's a shame because you are going to get awfully upset one whatever happens - that is either when you have to pay way more for your fuel or that the World fills up with alternative powered vehicles. What bad luck.

The Global Warming thread has been locked!!

Here's a very honest answer. It's mainly because when you lot you are faced with evidence that you are wrong you don't respond reasonably - that is by either:

1. Producing convincing evidence of your own, or
2. Admitting you are wrong.

Instead you rely on ever-widening conspiracy theories, or you just resort to calling the other person 'socialist'.

You think you are engaging in debate, but all you are really doing is finding different ways to say: "I know what I believe and nothing is going to change it".

Eventually people get fed up.
