and thats really what im driving at here... humans really didnt cause this last warming, imo.
Lol I love it.

This sums up your post to me, "We watched a movie and did some research for an hour and now we know the truth and all you fools, and half the scientists are wrong."

You might be right dude, but you have some serious problems with the way you are trying to convince people. Your claims of certainty about humans not causing it seem bold given your expertise on the subject.
