This audio edition is the first ever unabridged recording of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.
© and (P)2004 FranklinCovey
"The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is by now one of the best-selling books of all time." (Fortune)
"Excellent Insights"
This book provides excellent insights into dealing with others through
introspection. It touches on Victor Frankel and others who provide examples of how to turn adversity into assets. This book is not a traditional self help book, but a companion to guide the listener into ones self.
"A true guide for life"
This is one of my top ten books of all time for lifelong contemplation.
Key themes of Proactivity; Setting and following priorities; Re-scripting according to principles; Win-Win; Listening to understand others; Synergy; and Renewal are fundamental, timeless and universal.
Dr. Covey's approach is unequalled in breadth and depth, while being entirely accessible to any human being. Everything he writes complements everything I've learned in life, while laboring to uproot any weeds that have grown in my internal garden. Having Dr. Covey read the material to me personally... it's the icing on the cake!
I read "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" when it first appeared decades ago; read it a second time five years later; and now, thanks to Audible, I've begun a profound study and contemplation of the material, that would have otherwise been too tedious to handle, given my other time commitments, as well as the fact that, since my work is about 90% in front of the computer, my eyes tire quickly before printed material in my non-work time.
I organize my listening in two ways: listening in the logical, step by step, chapter by chapter method on the one hand, imagining myself attending a 7 Habits seminar or class; and listening for hours at a time as I lie down to rest/relax/sleep on the other. The result is I end up hearing the material over and over, provoking thoughts and contemplations about where I am in life, where I want to go, and what I need to do to get there. I expect the process to last about six months. My goal from the reading: A complete paradigm re-adjustment for life.
This book has my highest recommendation for any person anywhere.
"Most insightful book"
It is a wonderful feeling to come across a book where you feel that you really got your money's worth and that you really are learning something new and exciting that would greatly improve the way you think and live. Dr. Covey really got me thinking about so many things that I could really improve on and just what he said about not "getting in the thick of thin things" alone is worth every penny. I want to be a better husband and a better father to my children and strongly believe following the principals he identified will greatly help me achieve that.
"7 Habits"
Steven Covey's message is as valid now as it was when the book was first published and listening to it on audiobook is great way to refresh those lessons we thought we wouldn't forget after reading it so long ago. My only critque of the audiobook is that Covey mispronouces words so often that it causes one to wonder why he would narrate his own book. I recommend the audiobook if you have read the book before and are willing to listen to his original pronunciation.
"Change your Life"
If you really want to change your life for the better, read this book. I would suggest not listening to this in the car, but in the quiet of your home and make notes as you do. You will truly change the way you go through life and the way you understand other people.
"Great book bad audio"
The material in the book is great and I highly recommend it. This audio version, however, is very difficult to listen to because the author speaks so slowly and pauses so often. I had the feeling that I could have listened to the unabridged version in half the time if read by another narrator. I found myself zoning while listening to the book, rewinding it so I could listen to it again, and by the time I got to the part I had missed, I was zoning again.
My 3 star rating is based on the audio itself, not the content. I highly recommend the book itself, and I may even buy the abridged version so I can refresh myself on the material.
"The real deal..."
Sadly this book is contrarian to a lot of what goes on in our society. Thus I constantly have to "try" to practice these principles. But the trying is worth it. I have used this book as a standard for turning around the cultures of two manufacturing plants after I was hired from the outside. Those turn-arounds were only accomplished because the principles in this book work and because, if patiently applied, they give a management team a common vocabularly for they way they treat each other and their associates. My only function was to act as catalyst and insist that these principles be practiced. After a couple of years, in both cases the stress levels were way down, the morale was way up, and the performance was beyond anything known before and certainly beyond expectation. In my current assisgnment we're saving over $3M per year (450 people) and the roots of that accomplishment are in this book. It's a book to listen to, to absorb, and to go back to over and over again. An annual tuneup by listening to this program, is typical of those who REALLY try to adopt the 7 Habits (and model them). It's tough to be a perfect practitioner. One can only read and try...
"Great principles for life"
These are great principles to learn for life, but it could be delivered in a different more direct method that will not take 14 hours
"Mind Expanding!!"
If you are looking for a simple, linear formula to fast success, this is not your book. However, if you are convinced that sustainable success cannot be realized through a singularly direct approach, this book can provide the necessary foundation. The religious references do not suggest that God is the key to success. They are provided as examples for developing a solid internal foundation on the road to external success.
"Buy the Book"
I would advise to buy the book...this version was hard to follow and not very good. I was disinterested and bored fast...although the paper version is excellent the audio version gets a low rating.

In 1926, the 12 000 year old remains of a prehistoric man were discovered in a cave (used for shelter by Palaeolithic man) in Fish Hoek. It marked this sleepy coastal town forever as a historical landmark and popular place to go for easy living in South Africa. The place where the skeleton was found was named after the Peer father/son team who discovered the prehistoric remnants. Peers Cave is not only an amazing find, it is also set in one of the most beautiful and scenic places in Fish Hoek.
Fish Hoek started as farm land but grew into a town after it was divided into plots. The name Fish Hoek translates, literally, as either fish hook or fish corner, and is part of Cape Town City; although from 1996 to 2000, it was a separate municipality, the South Peninsula Municipality.
The people of Fish Hoek enjoy a laid back style of life where many residents are retired or love living in a coastal area but work in the city. Aside from fishing, both as an industry and as a hobby, residents also enjoy swimming, sailing, surfing, and relaxing on the beautiful beaches. The city's well developed communications infrastructure means that Internet access, and its associated benefits like online shopping and instant information, is easily available.
Fish Hoek has also become known as a safe haven for whales and other endangered sea creatures after an 1868 law that was passed that banned open boat whaling. The people can still enjoy their tradition of "trek" fishing, which is essentially a fishing technique of throwing out, and then pulling in, fishing nets.
Property for sale in Cape Town is some of the most sought after real estate in the world, and as a suburb of Cape Town, Fish Hoek is a popular destination for holidaymakers from the city which is just 30 kilometres away (if there is no traffic). With the growing popularity and development of the area, traffic is unfortunately becoming more common and it could take as much as 2 hours to get to the city and another 2 hours to get back to Fish Hoek – sometimes it's just easier to buy a laptop and get as much done online as is possible… However, do keep in mind the fact that the railway passes through Fish Hoek as it travels from Cape Town down south to the Cape's best kept secret, Simon's Town (and vice-versa).
An interesting fact about Fish Hoek, for anyone thinking of stopping by, is that until recently no alcoholic beverages were allowed in Fish Hoek. It was a firm condition that was put into in place before the owner allowed his farm to be subdivided into plots for sale. Even up to today, there are no wine stores and one can only buy alcoholic drinks in bars and restaurants.
It has become a tourist destination although the people who are permanent residents have managed to maintain its quaint ambiance and cleanliness. Common to the area are schools, quite a number of restaurants, and the famous Fish Hoek daily newspaper, the False Bay Echo.
In the recent years, Fish Hoek was thrown into national and international media because of an increase in shark attacks. Last year in August, South African authorities warned about seeing more white sharks than normal and just this past September 28, 2011, a local resident was attacked by a shark while swimming despite being warned about the danger of sharks in the area. He survived but is in critical condition after reports of a missing right leg and a severely damaged left leg. It could have been worse but it could also have been prevented if this accountant heeded the warnings: the attack also further highlights the need to address the practice of cage diving which brings sharks into the bay areas.

I myself only have one Deoxys, so I only have one moveset that I actually use.
Deoxys (Base Form): This is the one I have. EV trained in Sp. Attack and Speed. I've tried to add a bit for the Uber enviroment battling. Psychic Ice Beam Shadow Ball Focus Blast
Deoxys learnset
NORMAL FORME: Psychic Ice Beam Thunderbolt Recover
ATTACK FORME: Return Brick Break / Drain Punch Rock Slide Psycho Boost
DEFENSE FORME: Psychic Toxic / Spikes / Night Shade / Stealth Rock (LOTS of options.) Protect / Thunder Wave Recover
SPEED FORME: Drain Punch / Night Shade Extremespeed Recover Psycho Boost
Gen V
Deoxys @ Focus Sash
Trait: Pressure
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SAtk / 252 Spd
Lonely Nature (+Atk, -Def)
Deoxys-A @ Focus Sash
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd
Hasty Nature (+Spd, -Def)
Deoxys-D @ Leftovers
EVs: 156 HP / 100 Def / 252 SDef
Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk)
Deoxys-S @ Focus Sash
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd
Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk)
Night Shade/Seismic toss-They both do the same amount of damage. It depends on what type coverage you want. Seismic toss has a bit higher PP, 32 to 24 max.
Recover/spikes/toxic spikes/stealth rock-Restores health, or if you're feeling really lucky, you could set up two hazards. The recovery is more important to me.
Spikes/toxic spikes/stealth rock-whichever you deem necessary.
Taunt-Forces opponent into attacking or switching. Either way it keeps them from interrupting you.
My Deoxys-D Moveset:
Deoxys Defense@ Leftovers
EVs: 252 HP, 184 Defense, 72 Sp. Defense
Careful Nature:(-Sp. Attack +Sp. Defense)
This is my Deoxys Set, which can only be utilized with Deoxys Defense only. Rest+Sleep Talk+Psycho Shift makes a deadly combination if used correctly, putting the foe to sleep. If you happen to get Taunted, Night Shade is there to help with that, causing 100 Damage each time. EVs give it 302, 411, 402 Bulk which is very nice to have. Bulky as can be :)
Deoxys Attack: @Life Orb EV's: 252 Spe, 128 Atk, 128 SpA Trait: Pressure Nature: Naive (+Spe -SpD) - Psychic - Shadow Ball - Superpower - Extreme Speed
This set seriously kicks butt, with extreme speed for quick finishing, and superpower to demolish the opponent...but then you are at risk...
that seems like the perfect moveset i would suggest attack form becuase no one can out run deoxys( other than ninjask) anyway my only suggestion is that if you want to teach it his super move
@ Toxic Orb Trait: Pressure EVs: 200 HP / 20 Atk / 100 Def / 100 SDef / 88 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Psycho Shift - Facade - Pursuit - Stealth Rock
S-rocks first turn, then psycho shift Poison to the opponent. If they switch, double pursuit damage. If they don't, double facade damage. A lot of prediction, though.
Well, because deoxys got new event moves, why don't I use them in a set: Deoxys speed@ focus sash EV's: 252speed/ 252 sp att/ 4 hp Nature: +speed -att nasty plot psychic/ ice beam dark pulse focus blast This is his setup sweeper set. He will only be outsped (sometimes) by other deoxys. Psychic is for STAB. Ice beam is for all of the dragon and flying types in Ubers.
Deoxys Defence Form: @Leftovers EV's: 252 HP, 252 Spe, 4 (SpD/Def) Nature: Jolly (+Spe -SpA) Trait: Pressure - Recover - Toxic - Calm Mind - Ice Beam
This is one of my favourite D-D sets, it has its flaws but is a really reliable moveset.
Deoxys-Speed @ Focus Sash
EVs: 252 Spd / 252 HP / 4 Atk
Jolly Nature
This is a pretty darn mean guy. No XK or sweeping for you.
Deoxys is my FAV FAV FAV Pokemon. My moves for normal form and all the rest are: Holding:Leftovers Moveset: Psycho Boost Drain Punch Ice Beam Thunderbolt Pretty good huh? You should try it. IT IS AWESOME!

Hello, for those who would like to know more about me, my name is Matthew. I am from the bay area in California. This is my blog that is dedicated to my art and photography.
Currently I am working on a 365 photo project, which consists of me taking a picture everyday. Stay and enjoy the music and photos I have taken.

The polo coat may have begun as a wrap coat but for me the quintessential version is double breasted, as worn by the man on the left of the Esquire illustration. Camel colored, with sleeve cuffs, patch pockets, a half belt and the show stopper: white mother of pearl buttons.
The gray flannel chalk stripe suit is icing on the cake.

Polo Coat Detailing

Is it de rigueur to wear the collar turned up? One of the characters in The Man Who Came To Dinner wore it turned up.

Years ago, I had a similar coat but it had a saddle shoulders. I think that is what it is called, no seams where the sleeves met the body of the coat. Great coat.

Who sells a coat with the kind of detailing you mention (obviously, MOP buttons can be purchased after-the-sale of the coat, if not available).
Thanks - March 1, 2009 at 6:57:00 PM PST

Salvatore, I expect such elegance would require a tailor.

will-- is this a coat similar to the one you discussed/ pictured? Ben Silver may have other sizes available, but it is specially priced at $750 for a size 44reg right now:

Great coat Will. Ralph Lauren used to do a fairly faithful version of the original Polo coat ... complete with all the treatments you mention. They might still do so.
You are correct though. In order to get higher quality fabrics as well as quality workmanship...bespoke or MTM is the way to go.
Will, I'd love to hear from you a lengthy weigh-in on the closing gap between MTM and Bespoke price points. An additional arm to that treatise might be some commentary on the highest in "off the peg" clothing...ie Kiton, Brioni,Purple Label and the rationale for those investments vs. MTM or Bespoke.
I've been crazy about clothes for years and I'm fairly settled on where and how to spend my money. This has to be for many though, a mind boggling consideration. - March 2, 2009 at 4:07:00 AM PST

Russ, that one looks pretty good.

White buttons would be a step too far towards the 'flash' on such a coat.......Understated style at all times!

The pockets that Flusser uses on his Polo coats are great. They are different than the ones from Brooks and other makers.

Enjoy your site and comments.
What do you think about this color for an overcoat.
Jason - March 2, 2009 at 11:44:00 AM PST
- Will said...
Jason, that color is usually called vicuna. It's about the shade of the black and brown herringbone overcoat cloth I am offering, which is one way to say that I like it.

The classic polo is quite distinctive. Given its iconic status, it does seem hard to find. I did buy one at Brooks Brothers at the day after Christmas sale in '07. It was of Loro Piana camel hair cloth and had all the features.
The film "Manhattan Melodrama" from 1934, starring Clark Gable and William Powell, features matching camel polo coats as a mainspring of the plot. I think when you see these suave screen icons in their polos, you'll want one for sure! - March 3, 2009 at 5:58:00 AM PST
- Charley said...
The welt seaming on the outside of the sleeve causes the coat to appear more informal. And, to my eye, adds to the heft of the style in this illustration. It is interesting that it appears to have four sets of buttons. This one is really meant for use in the weather.
- March 4, 2009 at 11:35:00 AM PST

I own a vintage model, but of current production, research would lead me to buy from J. Press -- all the right details, high quality... $1,350.00 at full retail. Less during regular sales.

That residue should come right off with an inorganic solvent. Say a gasoline soaked rag if you're brave. You'll still need soap and water after though, and the rag might spontaneously combust if left in a corner somewhere.
Maybe just buy a cheap pot solely for the purpose of making tea and let the resin build up anyway without promoting the ire of your better half!

Well, yes, but it's talking about nirate (NO3-), which forms from that NO2 in the exhaust plume.
You know there is a vast amount of uncertainty about radiative forcing amongst the world's scientists. Which makes your theory even more ludicrous. Are you seriously suggesting that some secretive cabal within the US military figured out exactly how the atmosphere worked about 20 years ago, and rather than tell everyone, they decided to fix things by themselves.
Or are you suggesting the military does not actually know how the RF interactions work exactly, so they have been performing large scale experiments on the planet for the last 20+ years, without anyone noticing.
Actually, as you noted, their effects would be lost in the noise. Hence they can't actually be experimenting, which basically means you think they have it figured out.
There really is no good evidence to support this theory.
Well, considering how long "chemtrails" have been happening...and how little evidence there is so far, I think I can be quite confident that I will not be changing my position anytime soon.
My statement you quoted is more about the source of the information and not the information itself. If an "advocate" posts something as a fact, it takes very little time to dismiss it as misinterpretation/misunderstanding based on a lack of education in the subjects and a history of accepting BS as fact, like most conspiracy theorists have. If schools with an atmospheric science program start posting articles about an unusual increase of ANYTHING, then it COULD BE cause for concern. But, Let's face it, certain individuals don't need much evidence to run around like Chicken Little.
The only thing that needs to happen is the decision makers believed the expert opinion of crisis and the belief that the mitigating measures are reasonable and appropriate. . . .as I said earlier. . .
"3) I don't know the date of this paper but what was considered conventional wisdom before this possible realization is what would have governed the strategies and actions of the persons deciding what to do or not do. . . .They most likely would have thought the spiking of fuel was the best possible action. . . may still feel that way. . . ."
The only thing guaranteed in life is deception. . . everything else is optional . . . George B
The analysis below is why I questioned the AWACS induced trails and Cirrus Cloud Complex in the UK (http://www.met.reading.ac.uk/~sgs02r...ywood09JGR.pdf ) . . .I thought is could be testing of countermeasures by the AWACS in restricted air space . . .
From a Thread on GLP . . . http://www.godlikeproductions.com/fo...age1097900/pg7
Excellent questions. Seriously.
Now, as to these aerial photos you have - these are air-refueling tanker tracts. In a war, you have to have many gas stations in the sky. Tankers orbit waiting to give gas to returning fighters. That is what those cons are - unless they're photoshopped.
As to the oval cons in a previous post, that is an FCF tract. I was an FCF pilot. FCF stands for "Functional check flight." Whenever a military or commercial jet has an engine change or a flight control change, it has to be tested on a flight before it can be used operationally. Those tests have to be conducted withing a certain airspace. So, the pilot goes out a ways and then turns and comes back towards home base. They have to stay in military airspace. If they get back home and the test isn't complete, they turn away and do it again. There is no conspiracy there.

This NOAA picture was taken 28 Jan 1991 which was about a month before the end of the First Gulf War according to wikipedia . . . so one can assume that :Air Supremacy had been achieved by the allies . . . and possibly no one was overly concerned about Contrail visibility; however, until hostilities were totally suppressed doesn't it seem reckless?
1. Why would you expose the visual location of Tankers, AWACS, etc. for possible targeting?
2. Makes one wonder if some of the persistent Trails over Iraq and Saudi may have other objectives?
NOTE: You suggested photo shopping I cannot confirm or deny but I highly doubt it . . . too easily discovered . . . (I thought I had found it on the NOAA site but when I looked I could not find it . . .
The Persian Gulf War (commonly referred to as the Gulf War) (August 2, 1990 – February 28, 1991), was the final conflict initiated with United Nations authorization, by a coalition force from 34 nations against Iraq, with the expressed purpose of expelling Iraqi forces from Kuwait after its invasion and annexation on 2 August 1990. [link to en.wikipedia.org]
Air supremacy is the complete dominance of the air power of one side's air forces over the other side's, during a military campaign. It is the most favorable state of control of the air. It is defined by NATO and the United States Department of Defense as "that degree of air superiority wherein the opposing air force is incapable of effective interference." [link to en.wikipedia.org]

George, given there's no actual evidence that anything is going on, and given that the US military has a function to protect the US. Which of the following two things seems more likely:
A) The military found nothing needed doing with the atmosphere, so did nothing.
B) The military found the US was in danger from climate change, so instituted a massive secret program with no noticeable effect in total secrecy.
Explain your choice.
George, are you forgetting what the conclusions about the UK AWAC trail said?
Here, I'll post it for ya..
[44] Of course, it is possible that natural cirrus could have
been generated in the absence of the AWACS and other
aircraft operations. The very high supersaturation with
respect to ice in this specific case study mean that other
meteorological ''triggers'' causing the downstream evolution
of natural cirrus cannot be ruled out. To establish that
natural cirrus would not have formed in the absence of the
aircraft operations would require very accurate modeling of
processes that are only crudely represented in current
numerical weather prediction models.

Really?! You can't see how a plane flying around the same air space for a while would increase the air saturation in that area...but not in the surrounding areas?
I like how you claim it's "one flight" when it's actually one flight...which is completely different than all other flights in that region at the time!
Are you actually concerned with the truth here, or are you more interested in pushing an agenda? I ask because the conclusions about that one flight specifically state that the result of the AWACS flight could have easily created that contrail cirrus cloud without any "chemicals" added to it. Yet, you simply dismiss that point altogether.
It's just another example of a perfectly logical explanation you dismiss because it doesn't agree with what you have already made up your mind about. It's almost as if you don't care about any information which suggests you could be wrong. Why? I read EVERYTHING about this subject and weigh it against the facts as they are known and can't come to any other conclusion than it's all an Urban Legend. But, despite a complete lack of evidence, you rely solely on your hunches and intuition and the supposed fact that you had never been wrong during your working years...so you say.
It just seems so odd..

But my question is why you think there was a need for an initiative. Given that you've no idea about the future of the atmosphere, and all the stuff you've read is from people who are not privy to Regan's inner circle of scientists, then why do you think there was was ever a need for an initiative?
I ask because you keep pointing out that if they are doing something, it's left no measurable trace above the noise. So would not the "they did nothing" explanation fit your observations much better?
Noble1965 (March 5th, 2012)
You've got some inexplicable personal animus to contain - and a bone on being outed on above top secret. No?
What seems to be a problem with many contributors to this site? The need for everything to be explicable in black and white. Life just isn't like that Mike - haven't you noticed there are such things as personal interest, greed, deception follows...then some more, converging interests are powerful incentives, money is an even greater one for many....the non-stop lies of 'politics' at every level (populated by...? People, human beings). You appear unable or unwilling to accept any of these incalculable factors in any debate. The only time you entertain 'the human factor' (there's a good story by Graham Greene with this title, but maybe you might try someone like Camus?) is when you tell everyone that it's impossible for people to hold such big secrets, we're just not that well organized - you know the stuff, you write it. but it's not so black and white - there are plenty of 'secrets' you'll never know about, not least in your case because you're not looking for them or even open to the possibility in most cases. The stiffness of your resistance on some kind of apparent 'principle' to such human factors is leaving you a little short of taking account of all possibilities. I think an open mind is essential for progress and understanding. Like I've said before: science isn't everthing. Further to that: when it all gets to the crux - science, religion, it's all philosophy. All of it. They are simply methods we construct and use to try to describe our condition and our conditions. The humanities are in serious trouble....and partly as a result of that - so is humanity.
On AC Griffith - son of a judge, I believe, from a well-to-do establishment background - you'll need to listen to some interviews with him, and then you can speak on it. Like I said, there are three possibilties - either he speaks the truth or he is lying, or it's mixture of the two, agreed? It's 50-50 for all we know. Either way: it's information or disinformation; either way, it's an issue for the establishment. Can you not at least agree on this last?

Hey Mick...didn't I read a thing on the front page asking people to be polite? Why don't you pick up this poster on his frequent ad hominem attacks and general rudeness? I got a ban for what you perceived as the same, didn't I?
Oh yes, and then you went and told the world (having muzzled me and thus prevented any possibility of that lie being immediately corrected) that I called you a Nazi - when what I actually said was 'fascism begins at home'. Bit different, isn't it? I have an exceptional memory. Maybe next time you can ban me for good - then you can say what you want without fear fo the truth being spoken. Play fair. Be honest. It looks very bad when you don't.
Come on, let's have the same rules for everyone - and that includes you.
1 Where on earth was that suggested? Please indicate (and let's not forget that physics - and all science - is a man-made construct and/or discovery of something we want/need to give meaning to)
2 What's arithmetic to do with it? Exactly. Metaphors here are not sufficient, surely?
3 Four questions: Yeah? And? So? What?
Politeness is a little subjective. Noble is on the line, but he and George B know each other, and have been debating for a long time. Since he attacks George far less politely over on GLP, this actually is being polite, relatively speaking. Not incredibly productive though, and I would prefer it would stop.
You (lee) got a one month ban for not making a point. Here's where it happened:
I was very interested in what your point actually was, which is why I kept trying to get you to make it. You'd posted:
on my personal web site (mickwest.com), which I though meant you had some point you were leading up to. I gave you the option of explaining your point, or being banned. You chose not to explain your point.So, you finally realised where you were going; just in the nick of time, eh?
Goebbels and Orwell would be impressed. Well done.
I'd also argue that the combination of "Goebbels and Orwell would be impressed" with "fascism begins at home" does at least have some nazi implications. But perhaps I misunderstood you.
(edit) and I'd still like to know where we were going. Perhaps you can explain that now?

Please show me where I used any ad hom attacks or general rudenss.
Seems to me you've been pretty rude to me in a few posts. I don't even know you...or, are you one of the whiners from GLP?
why are you replying to my post...and addressing Mick?
You certainly could PM him if you had an issue with me.
Oh, I guess this is my public spanking...
So, I should have said "Mr Griffith military career...."
Sorry, I forgot the apostrophe.
I have seen it IMPLIED/SUGGESTED that Mr Griffith is a god among the chemtrail advocates. You don't have to say it outright.
Fact, there has been no increased level of ANYTHING associated with any trails in the sky.
Fact, the only trails I see in the sky are contrails...there is no reason to suggest they are anything more. There is no evidence to suggest hey are anything more.
Fact, the chemtrail advocates have already lost the debate.
I was getting worried. Where were you? It upsets my equilibrium when you're not right there, as usual.
Politeness may well be a little subjective, but integrity needs no rules.
I don't need to read old stuff - and if you want the full context of you muzzling me, then you have to read all of it, by definition. How dull that might be! Even you can't really argue that one, though it may hurt to admit.
Point? I make points all the time. Did you have a specific point in mind?
I'd also argue that the combination of "Goebbels and Orwell would be impressed" with "fascism begins at home" does at least have some nazi implications. But perhaps I misunderstood you.
Nice deflection, but no points. What I spoke of was that you said I called you a Nazi (do I really need to find the text before you delete it?).
In the interest of 'putting the record straight', why don't you publish both comments - yours and mine relating to the Nazi accusation you made?
I'd think it was obvious to anyone that Goebbels was a Nazi and Orwell was not. The greater context would be important here - not just the bits you choose to quote - again, do I really need to go back and recover more to show the context? Goebbels was a master of propaganda - no doubt a student of Sigmund Freud's nephew, Edward Bernays. If you want to attempt to understand the modern world - start here.
However you try to dress it up, the fact remains: I didn't call you a Nazi. You published that I did. That's a fact.
in response to my attempt at a metaphor, george said 'well what if i can force you to put wrong numbers in, erase others, etc...' saying the rules of the game would be forcibly changed and broken. well, to extend that thought to the collection of data on chemtrails, he seems to be saying that science cannot be used to make any observations. but science works on replicable laws of the universe, so if science is no longer usable, then the laws of the universe must be being changed. however, he was probably only saying that data would be corrupted, falsified, covered-up. the hyperbole was my own, and yes, i was starting to mix metaphors. i'm not the cleanest thinker around, but i do try to learn.
arithmetic was in the original sudoku metaphor as an example of how one gets to a valid result. one's standards have to be high and one cannot enter guesses. the standards for coming to valid conclusions about reality should be the same. speculation is cool, but has to be followed through and tested to see if it fails (falsifiability?).
it seems this part of things is being left out of the chemtrail story, an advocate will blur their vision just enough to not see the things proven against any particular fact in their case.
if chemtrails are being sprayed, organised, choreographed, budgeted, man-powered, etc, they will have very real effects in this universe. those effects can be observed. that's what 'so what'.
unless the instigators are using a time machine, or an alternate universe device, or have matrix-like inducing technology to get rid of that cause-effect relationship. like they're just lifting up a corner of the universe and sweeping the evidence under it.
Last edited by Pete Tar; March 5th, 2012 at 12:29 PM.
I have seen no evidence that anything associated with the trails, other than what's expected...such as water vapor and combustion gases, have led to the increase of anything in the atmosphere...which can be directly linked to the trails in the sky. Have you?
About the other facts..
I see no evidence to suggest that any trail I have seen in the sky (or in any video/picture) is anything more than a contrail. I have seen claims to the contrary, but nothing to back up the claims. By default, they are contrails. It will take some VERY compelling evidence to prove they aren't...got any?
I have heard about these supposed "chemtrails" for a few years now, and so far, EVERY bit of evidence presented has been evidence of the ignorance of those who accept "chemtrails" as truth. In general, people don't know much about aviation and/or their own atmosphere. Accepting what is found during a google search for "chemtrails" as fact...is not learning about aviation and/or atmospheric science.
It seems to me that the advocates just refuse to admit they have lost the debate.
Last edited by Noble1965; March 5th, 2012 at 12:51 PM.
I suspect Noble means there has been no unexpected increase in anything, like barium, or aluminum. Jet exhaust has certain known emissions and it creates clouds. But those things are expected. Also other things are sprayed in trails, like insecticide. But those things are not part of the "chemtrail" theory.
Edit: what he said.
Lol! Really.
You started out ok, but then you lost the plot. Sorry mate.
Choreographed!? Do your own science: Look up. Appleman chart. Atmospheric soundings, as many as possible. Look up more. Satellite imagery of incoming weather systems. Learn the physics of cloud formation. Learn the physics of contrail formation. Keep looking up....it's called empiricism and it's available to everyone. Aircraft emissions = clouds. Was it ever thus: no.
Look up, know your clouds.
The universe might need to wait a bit.
I'll have to recap what we were saying - I'm sure there was to be a point, if patience had prevailed we might have passed that point.
How did you get to 'He used up his posts in another thread, complaining about how I'm a nazi.' then? Kafka would be proud! Maybe as much as Goebbels and Orwell!
No trails here for weeks?
Have they stopped 'spraying' ?
Or have they only 'sprayed' invisible chemicals from the holographic projections of planes?
I am concerned that I may be missing the latest chemtrail theory...
I'd given you three posts to explain your point.
The last post you made (hence "used up his posts") was the comment about "fascism begins at home".
I interpreted that as you implying I was being somewhat nazi-like, as you'd previously mentioned Goebbels.
Now, can we get to what your point was? Or shall we chat about the nazi comment for a while instead?
I should have been clearer for the sake of the greater context and everyone understanding the nuance. You, Mick, know pretty well what I mean by that from previous discussion. You have at the least agreed, in pages on this site, that the proliferation of aircraft emissions turning to cloud has 'at least doubled in the last ten to fifteen years' (I think - we can look it up if you want).
And Noble said this: Fact, there has been no increased level of ANYTHING associated with any trails in the sky.
This is in direct conflict with your statement and your chat above about aluminium and all that is just guessing, isn't it? Let him speak for himself. What he's saying is wrong. Now that's black and white.
Nope, what I'm saying isn't wrong...
Could there be a VERY small amount of aluminum in the combustion gases because of friction? Sure..
Is there any evidence that it has been accumulating in the atmosphere? Nope..
Is there any evidence that any aluminum is being deposited in the atmosphere intentionally, as part of any spray program? Nope
I can and do speak for myself.

Lee, you are being pedantic. It's not helping.
I am out in the sun. I'm just replying to posts when I pop in from fixing my fence.
But this isn't about me, is it?
Ok. You said this: Fact, there has been no increased level of ANYTHING associated with any trails in the sky.
I say this: There has been a marked increase in the creation of cirrus-like cloud cover directly from aviation (jet trails).
I'm not really sure why you're now bringing aluminium into it.
How about this: Fact: there has been an increased proliferation of cirrus-like cloud formed as a direct result of passing aircraft.
This is diametrically opposed to your position. And it is true. How many different ways does it need to be said? And remember - aluminium has nothing to do with this.

lee, you are being incredibly pedantic. I get the feeling you are just trolling so you'll get banned again.
Please try to make honest points. We know you can spin, but that's really not the point.
You know full well that Noble said "other than what's expected...such as water vapor and combustion gases", and yet you persist on harping upon this point.
If you persist in this style, I will ban you permanently, and you'll have your victory. Your call.
