The South African carrier Kalula Airlines is known for their sense of humor. Take a look at the way they paint their planes! See more pictures of their planes in a collection of photos. Link -via reddit, where you'll find more Kalula humor.
And given that a fair few people are still nervous about flying, I think that sort of thing is a good way to make some of the stress go away. Unlike all the (arguably superfluous) safety precautions that just make it worse.
"This doesn’t outlaw the measurement or reporting of sea-level rise. It only says how state agencies will or will not do it."
But they HAVE to use the long-discredited hockey stick model that the one true scientific authority tells them to use, otherwise they're being not just stupid, but evil. They're murdering millions of dollars in grant money! Don't you care about that?
This doesn't outlaw the measurement or reporting of sea-level rise. It only says how state agencies will or will not do it. I don't see what the problem is. We didn't like the state agencies (or federal agencies for that matter) doing this in the first place.
Shades of Shrodinger's Cat, rising sea levels haven't risen if they aren't measured. Extrapolating potential rise in sea level using century old data is just dumb, no matter what side of the arguement you take.
Yeaaah! What a great idea that is. I've always said: don't just let anyone measure stuff when they want to, there would be chaos. What we need is one government-authorized committee per thing to measure in the universe. And only when they're asked to by the government. Also, don't let those "scientists" fool you with their statistical analysis and fancy "exponential growth" mumbo-jumbo! Everyone knows nature always behaves linearly. So be a real scientist: draw a straight line through a graph! That's how science works, innit?

FALSE. But by all means, continue your argument.
