QuoteOriginally posted by: ppauperQuoteOriginally posted by: JWDMore distortionsppauper is having hallucinations about Al Gores excellent movie, about which the judge said (17.i): the AIT is substantially founded upon scientific research and fact . The conclusion from ppauper that AIT is a science fiction film is absurd. how so ?from wiki:>>Science fiction is a broad genre of fiction that often involves speculations >>based on current or future science or technology.algore's propaganda film paints a vision of an apocalyptic future and fits the definition of science fictionThe judge himself used the terms "alarmism" and "exaggeration" to describe the movie.And to quote the judge:QuoteIt is now common ground that it is not simply a science film although it is clear that it is based substantially on scientific research and opinion but that it is a political film.(snip)Paul Downes, using persuasive force almost equivalent to that of Mr Gore, has established his case that the views in the film are political by submitting that Mr Gore promotes an apocalyptic vision.In other words, the judge ruled that it was a political film promoting an apocalyptic vision of the future.Again, that fits the bill of science fiction.algore's lawyers stipulated to the fact that it was a political film:pq[Martin Chamberlain, who, with equal skill, has adopted a very realistic position on thepart of the Defendant, does not challenge that the film promotes political views.QuoteWith an appropriate guidance note, the judge approved the film for showing in the schools and dismissed the case against the film.You know full well that the judge did not "dismiss" the case.Rather he ruled that this one-sided propaganda film could only be shown if material was distributed along with the movie pointing out that it was one-sided and choc full o' "errors".QuotePolar bears are yes indeed being harmed by global warming Again, you're trying to muddy the issue: the issue is that in his propaganda film, algore said "A new scientific study shows" X. The judge asked his lawyers to produce this "scientific study" which algore cited and the lawyers were unable to do so. Because algore invented it.You lose ppauper. The film's been shown in schools all over the Western world. You lose. Bye bye.
