Since AGW gloom-and-doom predictions for our lifetime (like no snow in the UK by 2010) are not working out and it's becoming obvious that previous predictions for 2100 are way off track...now the alarmists are saying the end of the world is now postponed for the Year 3000.

I like when people make predictions 1000 years in the future.
Nobody can slap you behind the head if you're wrong.

More Denier Fail by the OP. Sorry dude, but it's a fact.

How is a prognostication for the Year 3000 a fact?

A metorite or asteroid hit on earth would slap them upside the head pretty hard if it happened. Out of all the enironmental nightmares that one is real and has a record.

If not that, then the sun has our number. It's going to grow to the point where it's going to inevitably deep fry earth.

Sweet dreams.

Did you not notice Bodah, I said 1000 years in the future?
No risk getting slapped behind the head when you've turned to dust.

Wait a minute, you gave me an idea...
Since metorites or asteroids have hit the earth in the past, we're almost 100% certain it will happen again.
But since Global Warming has happened in the past, we're also certain that it will happen again too.

Pray tell, how can the buffoons who can't predict tomorrows weather predict 2999 years into the future. Must be that carbon dating thingy.

If it doesn't hit by the year 3000, then by 4000 for sure.

Yeah, like we're even gonna be around in another 1000 years anyway

Probably not us, but soon death too shall die, to quote HP Lovecraft. Well, death will be postponed almost indefinitely within seven generations, I'd guess.

Already a thread on this...
