nice to see you crawl out of your hole just
in time to offer your 2 cents worth once again... unlike yourself I started following this team long before Wenger arrived on the scene and will continue to do so long after he's gone...
in his earlier years I admired the cerebral elements he brought to the EPL, which at that point was more brutish than beautiful, and I respected the seemingly tireless efforts of Arsene, Dein & staff to uncover and develop talent without sacrificing the product on the field... likewise I appreciated that such a youthful manager wasn't afraid to bring strong personalities and / or world - class players into the fold without being fearful of how said players would potentially undermine and / or dilute his authority... unfortunately this all
changed about 10 years ago and culminated
in the removal of all our greatest players, both young and old, without any real replacements coming
in... from Henry to RVP to Fabergas and Nasri, it was easy to see that this club was no longer interested
in competing at the highest levels... instead of being honest, minus the ridiculous claims
regarding the new stadium, Wenger chose to side with management and
in doing so became the «front man» for this corporation pretending to be a world - class soccer club... without the «front man» this organization would have been exposed numerous years earlier, so his presence was imperative if the facade was to continue... it's for this reason and more that I despise what this once great man and Kroenke has done to my beloved club... the gutless, shameful and manipulative way they have treated the fans, like myself, is largely indefensible and this is why I felt it necessary to start offering my
opinion in a
public format... trust me, I resisted the temptation for many years but as long as the same shit continues to exist I will voice my
opinions and if you don't like it maybe you should look for a different team to pretend to follow
First, I would suggest to those who hope to influence American
public opinion regarding anthropogenic global warming, PLEASE state temperatures and temperature
changes in degrees Fahrenheit, rather than degrees Celsius.
Regarding Nisbet and getting around skeptics, his closing line is «Part of the challenge
in creating the incentives for policymakers to take action on climate
change and to address the issue
in a serious way is to accurately communicate about the nature of
public opinion.»
With
regard to possible «tipping points»
in public opinion, I have been wondering what sort of event might act as a «global warming 9/11» — a shocking event that would quickly transform
public opinion about the urgent need to make and / or accept large - scale lifestyle
changes to quickly and drastically reduce GHG emissions?
