You analogy is not good. You’re also lumping me in with the denier crowd, I’m not. I’m in the “you’re Proof that Trump believes in climate change because of X request for variance” is a retarded fvcking notion.

As for where I stand on climate change, I don’t care. You all beat me into submission or rather, ambivalence. I’m overcome with the collossal nature of it all and think we’re fvcked, so why try. I’ll work on keeping clean my area and trying to protect my fishing resources.

I’m not saying the dipshit believes in climate change. I’m saying he’s one of the dimwitted who walks amongst us who has no idea what climate change/global warming actually means.

It was hard to figure out what you typed and thought. I don't hate any peaceful religion, ones that don't advocate that people have their heads cut off, or ethnicities that don't advocate marrying their sisters. Does Trump lie? Yes. Is hilliary a common criminal? Yes. A con person who's for sale and always has been.I'll support Trump, as long as he doesn't go off the deep end, and you'll still support a lying, for sale con woman.
No, you just find the worst example and then apply it to the whole religion everywhere, be like equating Christians with the westboro fools. And I ain't supporting any retired grandmothers, she don't affect me like a sitting President. Hillary isn't and never was President, she just lives in ya'lls brains rent free for some reason, Donnie tweets out his danger on a daily basis, I prefer smart Presidents over ***** grabbing buffoons, but I'm enjoying watching ya all get your due, it ain't liberals causing his problems that is for sure, he is just polishing your brand!

Yes. You are absolutely out of your depth here. Thanks for sealing the deal with that response though. Oh you live by a sea wall? This changes everything. Haha jfc.

When we broke ground on our home we hit a 10+ foot coal seam. We had to spend nearly $20k extra to get my foundation in. We had to seal the coal off with a a bituminous sealant. We had to truck in 550 tons of non-calcarerous river rock from the Ohio river basin because limestone reacts with the pyrite in coal. We had to layer that river rock in 6 inches at a time with a roller and have every layer tested with with a nuclear density gauge to make sure it was packed in sufficiently. Had to learn a **** ton about ****ing coal. However, I am not a ****ing geotechnical engineer and would never question one.

You live by a ****ing sea wall. Hahaha
You got off cheap.

Oh it was hell man. Set us back about 7 months. They hit coal in November and it was May before we started again.

I heard everything from some guy offering me $30k for the coal to a company wanting to charge me $30k to do all the work on top of what we had to pay Potesta for their services.

I knew going in I would never build another house. This hammered that point home. lol

There are 1.5 billion muslims. 10% are card carrying jihadist. That's 150 million. How many Westboro crazy loon baptists are there? 50? You supported the one person who would have sold your only pair of socks if it could make her a dollar. She's guilty of obstruction of justice and treason.

Its not about hurricanes and heatwaves. It is about every weather event we have being catastrophic. One of the hallmarks of climate change that has been discussed is more frequent and severe extreme weather events. If you cant see that idk what to tell you.

I have a sea wall, not live near one. I have a sea wall to guard against tidal erosion, not to guard against global warming. We’re not splitting atoms here.

You literally posted a link stating because he used x variance request citing global warming that he believed in it.

When we built I was prepared for everything that could go wrong that I could think of to go wrong and we got buy with obe minor issue that sliwed everything by 2 weeks. I had heard you had an issue with coal when you were building but I didnt realize it was where your foundation was. Aeroman mentioned it to me when I ran into him but i was under the impression you had an exposed seam and didnt know what to do.

Bottom line to me is. Building is too much stress.

I believe the implication was that he believed in the consequences of it whether he knew what was causing it or not. Sort of like you and your sea wall.

It was a huge exposed seam. Our excavator just kept on digging because my general contractor told him to. What a mess it was. I’ve got ol Aero spooked to ever build on his property without a full geological survey done. lol

You hit Pyrite? That **** sucks. When Pyrite comes into contact with moisture and air, it releases a gas.

We had a job where we were given fill material to use by the owner, and unknown to us, the fill material contained Pyrite. It was only used in a small area, under a slab on grade, and we were fortunate, in that the slab only heaved about an inch in total in that small area. The fill material came from excavation for a Hanger, for C5's, that was being built next to our site. It wasn't until after the Hanger was completed that it was learned what they excavated contained Pyrite, and it was their excavation material that was given to us. They had massive heaving in the slabs, requiring the demolition of all interior concrete, re-excavation, new fill material, re-compaction, new slabs, etc... a total nightmare for that contractor.

So, tidal erosion is something different than global warming. Tidal erosion is something that always occurs. The tide rises and falls twice a day, every day. The simple rising and falling causes the natural erosion. The sea wall guards against that.

You’re getting close. You seem to making a distinction between types of erosion? I don’t understand why.

Imagine the effects of tidal erosion with elevated sea levels due to global warming. Think regular *** erosion on climate change steroids.

Actually, you don’t even have to imagine. Just google Tangier Island.

Yea I saw enough pictures of blown away foundations to know that we needed to spend the money to get it fixed correctly or we would be paying for it later. lol

I have been to the sea and I have been skiing on snow. I also have seen coal. Hope this helps the thread.

Well when you say things like “I built a sea wall to protect from tidal erosion and not global warming” it does give me pause.

You are somehow acting as if the effects of tidal erosion is not exasperated by rising sea levels (which is a consequence of global warming).

Like putting on a bandaid to stop the bleeding but not worrying about the knife stabbing you.

What kinda shocked us was this was in a limestone vein, and it's not something we come across hardly at all in our area. In our building we had to wait until all the gas was released before we applied our fix.

He can do most of the work himself. I sent hin some links to get soil types and other public information to get him started.

I didn't call you a name. I said your post was stupid. It was. It is. Sad you apparently don't know any better. At least you have your overused TDS to fall back on.
no more stupid than a lot of stuff on here posted by libs....don't see you calling them out

wouldn't have expected anything else...we will try really hard not to bore you...but I would suggest you open your eyes and try to see both sides every now and then......but to you that's probably just another stupid suggestion

Biggest advances in technology was in 2014. Trends started way before that, and cannot account for all.

2014 was when the categories were changed I believe. Technology improves incrementaly over time. He says it himself in the thread.
