Al Gore: Earth's Interior 'Extremely Hot, Several Million Degrees'
.
Last Thursday, NBC "Tonight Show" viewers got a perfect example of how the Nobel Laureate basically makes things up, and that his poor grades in college were quite an indicator of just how little he understands about science.
On Tuesday, National Review's John Derbyshire noted:
The geothermal gradient is usually quoted as 25-50 degrees Celsius per mile of depth in normal terrain (not, e.g., in the crater of Kilauea). Two kilometers down, therefore, (that's a mile and a quarter if you're not as science-y as Al) you'll have an average gain of 30-60 degrees - exploitable for things like home
heating , though not hot enough to make a nice pot of tea. The temperature at the earth's core, 4,000 miles down, is usually quoted as 5,000 degrees Celsius, though these guys claim it's much less, while some contrarian geophysicists have posted claims up to 9,000 degrees. The temperature at the surface of the Sun is around 6,000 degrees Celsius, while at the center, where nuclear fusion is going on bigtime, things get up over 10 million degrees.If the temperature anywhere inside the earth was "several million degrees," we'd be a star.

Haven't you gotten the memo on global warming?
here's a funny:
Before and after sex....
Before sex, you help each other get naked. After sex, you only dress yourself.
The Moral of the story: In life, no one helps you once you've been screwed.
I got the memo, read the memo, failed to believe it, then read the REAL data, decided on my own that figures don't lie, but liars can figure. Global warming, climate change, and global take over bs are all the same thing!!
All of the global weather clowns are watermelons. Green on the outside, red on the inside. It's about global control and global redistribution of wealth. These idiots really believe that for you and I to eat as we wish, when we wish and what we wish, children in Third World MUST go hungry!
That's absolutely a asinine thought. Because what you find when you look at these starving children is what I like to call "The Overlord Syndrome" Millions of dollars and tons of food goo to countries like Haiti, Somalia and Ethiopia. But when it gets there, the Overlords take and hold it so they can control the people.
Or you find places like China where the government takes food from the country and sends it to the cities. They in fact do not have enough to go around. But it's easier to control 10,000 rice farmers in Hoo Shot Jon, than it is 2 million pissed off, starving in Hong Kong or Shanghai.
But in the end, China HAS the money to buy enough food, but they use it, guess what, to control the people. I think WE will see this HERE before the 2012 elections.
Even if fat Al got his way and we all lived in trees and licked moss there is a large Asian population..........oh let's throw out CHINA who doesn't give a rat's behind wether their SUV is putting out co2. When I lived in Okinawa, Acid rain would destroy the paint on my car.
Snakeoil salesman have been around for a long time. But rarely, if ever, have people been as gullible as they are today, hence the "success" of a con-artist like fat Al. And how could he con so many for so long? The MSM. How can a lie become a fact? The MSM.
I remember these freaks [old hippies] who used to travel around in a bus, on the side it said "Acid Rain Caravan". I usually saw them when the Grateful Dead were in the area.
But, I think the were HOPING it would rain acid!
That was me!
P.T. Barnum was right.
