In South Qld we switched to metric some years ago.
Mrs Gumnut and I had a similar conversation over breakfast just an hour ago.
A point is one hundredth ( 1/100 ) of an inch, so that is 4.3 inches.

Opposition Leader Malcolm Turnbull has indicated he'll advocate a far more ambitious greenhouse gas reduction target than the government
Australian politics cracks me up, once the great climate change deniers the Liberals now plan to champion the good fight .....
That Green vote is mighty huh ??

(and Labor has massively toned theirs down since election)
Strangely, it is only those that dare question the orthodoxy of the new religion who are exposed to ridicule. The preachers in this new church seem immune from mainstream criticism no matter how grievous their errors.
The famous hockey stick graph used by the IPCC to support their claims has been proved false and the Kyoto protocol has proved to be largely symbolic.

Populist of the year, Kevin Rudd pronounced global warming as the ‘most important moral issue of our time’ but only offers a solution that guarantees all Australians will lose out through higher tax and a sprawling bureaucracy that will determine the who, what and how much of the economic equation.
A bit too much like socialism for my liking – but perhaps that is the ultimate goal of those who worship at the altar of global warming?
Satellite to Study Global-Warming Gases Lost in Space
A satellite launched from California failed to reach orbit today, crashing into the sea near Antarctica and dooming a $273 million mission to study global- warming gases.
“The mission is lost,” National Aeronautics and Space Administration spokesman Steve Cole said in a telephone interview from the launch site at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California.

Exactly what I was thinking.Suspicious

Glad to see others are working it out...
That would be a good thing.that total emissions would stay the same.
It has been raining solidly in N.Queensland for the last few days. Most dams are full. It dropped to 16 last night. I have to wear a jumper from about 4pm onwards.
If you want to know what the weather is like stick your head out the window.
Winter rain and low temperatures are a normal variant, as are rising tides and drought.
These jokers on the Goremobile know as much about the climate as Wayne Swan knows about economics.

As the earth is getting warmer, and climate continues to change, it's hard to fathom such nonsense.The godbothering warmeners are stumped by recent climate change.
As the earth is getting warmer, and climate continues to change, it's hard to fathom such nonsense.
And as the earth gets warmer, more moisture is pumped into the atmosphere, ensuring many parts of the world will get wetter.
The deniers of climate change don't want to admit to the climate swings that will exacerbate both drought and flood conditions in Australia.
Indeed, what is logical and predictable to climate scientists continues to baffle the smallminded.
Dr Patrick Moore, the founder of Greenpeace, states:
“Climate change is a wonderful example to demonstrate the limitations of science. There are two fundamental characteristics of climate change that make it very difficult to use the empirical (scientific) method to predict the future. First there are simply too many uncontrollable variables … Second…is the fact that we have only one planet to observe … With only one Earth, we are reduced to complex computer models of questionable value, and a lot of guesswork.”

Such absolutism has no place or value within the science of climate or the scientific method.
Climate is predictable and follows some logical path?
If you don't read the scientific literature, and prefer to believe those that want to interpret information as they see fit, then I can understand why you are baffled.No, what baffles is the inability to link global warming to human settlement on the planet despite the propaganda such as the bore film.
Here is a good article from that senator guy in the news recently:

Weather is immediately predictable: Look out the window.Such absolutism has no place or value within the science of climate or the scientific method.
