I literally laughed out loud.
Thank you, kind sir!

Thank you, kind sir!
Been awhile.
Makes sense too. They can carry alot more jet fuel that way.
You're closing in on 4nos level.
Thanks, spola.
Don't get the joke?
First one must have a sense of humor, understand irony and have an at least an average IQ to understand Ramirez...
One more thing...climb down off that high horse.

Low brow and juvenile at best.
He knows his audience.
Nice elitist retort!
You still wont get invited to the holiday gala.
You people are the best advocates for us people.
Its too good to be true!

I saw Scientifica Principia International graced out little climate thread. In the climate blah-blah-blah go sphere even skeptics like Watts, no friend of the scientific consensus, think they are full of it. There is a long standing antagonism between WUWT and SPI. A couple of years ago there was this true classic in the blahgosphere with the lightbulb in the mirror "experiments". At stake-do we quibble with the magnitude (or anthropogenic influence) of the climate sensitivity constant of Arrhenius's greenhouse gas law, or, as SPI would have you believe, is the whole law itself complete bullshit. Poppycock I guess since SPI has big Brit influence in their little "scientific community". Here's what Watts has to say about them, which I guess about sums it up.
"Most of what that group does is to spin sciencey sounding theories and pal reviewed papers by a mysterious members-only peer review system, and I have yet to any one of them try to do anything at an experimental/empirical measurement level to back up the sort of claims they make."
If anybody wants to check out the lightbulb thing you can get a sense of it from these links. Fair warning-its kind of like watching an episode of Mythbusters where they never quite get around to blowing something up. But you will get to see a digital thermocouple in action and you may discover that everything you know is wrong.

They get partial credit for spelling thermodynamics correctly.
One thing I would try with the light bulb and mirror setup - with the IR thermometer, measure several spots on the light bulb and then measure similar spots in the reflection of the light bulb in the mirror.
That sums up your sense of humor nicely.
Baby steps.....
While youre at it, unscrew the light bulb, put your thumb in the hole, and try sticking your foot in the bathtub.
(first fill tub with water)
We have the whole place wired with GFCI outlets.
