Also, let’s give a hand to **doorhinge**! While he’s not quite got the prize for “most dishonest shithead” (that one’s being split between FX and brazil’s lifetime achievement award), he might have just edged out **wolfsomething49** for “least scientifically literate poster” in GD.

Well, I’m not going much for insults, but I agree that **doorhinge** is truly dishonest.

Now, FX is once again in GD just showing all the bottomless depths of ignorance that he has by declaring that scientists know nothing about cyclical natural forcings and by daring a poster to publish he implies that no one else has done so. Of course there are plenty of scientists that investigated the issue but FX is only happy to show all how dishonest he is.

We are still waiting for his explanation on why he remains a willful ignorant regarding what really happened in “climategate”.

Do you have even the slightest idea how idiotic that sounds? **No debate,** when the whole world has been debating it for 20 years now?

I think FX may become the first and _only_ person I have ever placed on ignore on this forum. The urge to verbally bitchslap him up and down GD is becoming too great, and I’m on thin ice as it is - calling him a cum-gargling sack of lying pig shit there might lead to me taking a rather permanent vacation. How can a person so obviously capable of rational thought be _so incredibly fucking dumb?_

BTW, wolves have cubs, not pups.

No disrespect intended, no change in username suggested. Just had to get that off my chest.

Well, he is self destructing now by betting with -the not respected among climate researchers- Dyson. Besides still deluding himself that I ran away from his moderator dumped thread in the pit (actually the moderators told me to stay out from that thread and I comply with that request that I’m not posting there. And I agree, FX does not deserve even the anger he craves).

To me it is enough just to point out how his Dyson gambit is so lousy that he still does not realize that essentially he tossed many of his sources under the bus as Dyson agrees that warming is going at the poles of the earth. And this is after many posts from FX and other deniers in GD that insisted on how we should not rely on the instrumental records form the poles as they are not reliable or that they do not exist, or that there is no warming going on anyhow.

FX is as consistent as baby poop. 🙂

And FX continues to recycle old quotes that he and replied and I answered already in his -tossed by a moderator into the pit- thread.

[http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=17084236&postcount=1824](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=17084236&postcount=1824)

Mind you, I stay away from it as the moderators recommended me, but a formal complaint has to be made when a thread pups up in my tool search when I get quoted and I find that once again FX misleads others into making it sound that I posted in that thread again (and that the quote he posts was old and made to look as if I did not reply before to his newest ignorant reply). This only demonstrates that FX (not a mastermind) remains a jerk and a troll.

Yep. Yep, still posting crap.

And he even has to rely on one of our resident scientific racists to get his latest crap post:

[http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=17089232&postcount=375](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=17089232&postcount=375)

Like a blind squirrel FX is not bad by pointing to the Chief that taking care of the earth does not mean that environmentalists are anti-human, but as usual FX does show how bad the environment 🙂 is for him when he is looking to find quality supporters, it is so bad out there that a scientific racist that also does not care that brown people will suffer will has to be thanked by him. That and also that he is an ignorant about what is happening with solar technology in Africa.

Another bit that has to be mentioned is his incapability of taking in the advice of the sources he relies on.

His misleading cherry picking of the temperature data continues even if [woodforthetrees.org](http://woodforthetrees.org) told him their main page how misleading it is to rely on short temperature trends.

Found that again FX is just doing the cowardly thing and “debating” me in his thread that once again I do not participate by the advice of the moderators, yep, another quote from a place he is afraid to reply to as he has found several times what an ignorant he is, so it is back to his Hades in the Pit.

[http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=17102077&postcount=1849](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=17102077&postcount=1849)

I guess FX does not mind to continue supporting and getting the support from scientific racists like brasil84, Chief Pedant and magellan01, even watchwolf49 in another pit thread has shown to go for the prejudiced “Obama is a Muslim” smear.

Ah, the company you keep FX… And besides his F-bombs and other insults it looks like FX is looking for “suicide by mod” with his tirade against the moderators and then he compounds his idiocy by quoting from **Poptech**! Now that is reaching for the bottom of the barrel of discredited and already banned posters, suffice to say that Poptech has the dubious honor of having even his links rick rolled by the management as he admitted in the end that he was trolling all along for his website. What a tool you are of him FX!!
