"The strongest storms are expected to be stronger. And since Gustav is a very strong storm, you'd expect Gustav to have had an effect from human-induced global warming." This chain of implications sounds like Pepean logic at its best.

I'm going to have to use it in one of my classes as an example of what happens when Cretins pretend to reason. The only question is, should I ask them first of their opinion as to its validity--and run the risk of humiliating the little devils.....Yeah, I should.

Vecchi honors Princeton as much as he honors himself. I'm definitely using this on the students now. Most of them have a blind worship of "name" schools, and it's time they go through life with a less reverence and blindness.
