Why Should Anyone Believe in Global Warming?

[Into the Night]

If you cover yourself with a thick, wool blanket do you eventually feel warmer?

No. You are not warmer. Your body temperature is fully regulated.

Do you believe that if you put a thick wool blanket on a rock, the rock will get warmer?

 

[Into the Night]

Is that a yes or a no?

To clarify, let's say you're in a 75 degree room and covered with a thick wool blanket. Would you eventually feel warmer than you would uncovered?

No. Your body temperature is fully regulated. You are not warmer.

Dyson sphere.

I think it was Dyson himself who said that a sign of other intelligent life in the galaxy will be stars winking out.

No. Your body temperature is fully regulated. You are not warmer.

So you're saying the entirety of the word that covers themselves on cold nights to feel warmer are wrong and they would actually feel equally warm or cold regardless of being covered or uncovered?

Try English. It works better. Putting a blanket on a rock does not make the rock warmer.

I didn’t ask about a rock. I asked about a person.

Oh, and all of my words were English. Thanks.

A rock does not generate heat, dummy.

Is that a "yes" or a "no"? To clarify, let's say it's a particularly cold day, roughly -5 degrees Celsius (no wind). You wrap the -5 degree Celsius stone with a thick wool blanket that has also been sitting outdoors at -5 degree Celsius. Will the stone increase in temperature?

By the way, you haven't answered any of my questions. Any of them. I should make a list of all the questions to which you still owe me answers. Why not start answering my questions?

Why can't deaf people follow a conversation?

Good analogy. The Sun is the body.

You probably fell for the parlor trick as well.

A coat not keeping one warm has got to be one of the funniest claims ever.

 

[IBDaMann]

... that covers themselves on cold nights to feel warmer ...

What does "feeling warmer" have to do with anything.

Real world example: A man and a woman in an office building are arguing over the temperature and want to adjust the thermostat. The man feels too hot and wants a lower temperature. The woman feels cold and wants to jack up the temperature.

Question: does the building feel hot or does the building feel cold?

Not knowing what a thermometer is and yet claiming to have minored in physics has got to be the funniest claim ever.

A rock does not generate heat.

Deaf people never learned how to follow along. That is probably the biggest handicap.

RQAA.

Blatant lie.

Heat is not 'generated'. You still don't know what heat is.

A coat does not make you warmer. Your body temperature is fully regulated.

Goes without a coat in winter.

Your body generates heat. The coat holds in the heat, dumbass.

No, it wasn't answered. You answered the question you wanted to answer, not my question.
