        They have been trapped for a week now. Booze supplies are all gone, and one of them bumped his leg and misses his peanut shakes.

        In other news, when they wanted real help, they turn to the sceptic denialists

          Really? A retired US TV Weatherman has access to better local weather data than the ships on the scene, the Antarctic bases, the Australian Bureau of Meterology?

          Do you really buy into this spin my 'sceptical' friend? Check out the differences between what Dave Scott of KUSI-TV actually reported and what Watts claims. Not to mention a side order of hypocrisy, after all, the aforementioned washed-up TV weatherman allowed this comment onto the internet via his blog...

          Can we all start jumping for joy after they die ??
          Classy.

            yes really. I saw the bit where he helped out on the weather show. very impressive

            I think this shows the difference between propoganda and reality. When you need real people with real skills the propogandists start to get sidelined.

            There are kids on that trapped vessel. They deserve the best help they can get

              I told John “give me 15 minutes”, which was about the time I’d need to get out of COSTCO and get back to my office and send along some things I knew would help ... When I got back to the office, I no more than pulled up the bookmark and press send on the email ....
              Gosh, some skillz there ...

              There certainly is no shortage of propaganda.

                  Yeah, I mean we wouldn't catch our clarkey laughing at those dying in the fossil fuel industry, would we:

                      That was an ironic 'chortle', if you examine the context, in response to somebody sniggering at a busted wind turbine. Wouldn't want to try and smear somebody with a misquote, now would we?
