Democrats won't allow cimate scientist to testify with Gore

That would be post #4 not 5:

Nope, It's 5. 4 was Sandy's smiley eyeroll. You claim "scientists and the government," (that's too many antecedents, by the way) but you never mention either one in the post. The only living creature you mention is "cows."

Post #17

It's 18 on my monitor

Since I was talking about scientists in the paragraph wouldn't if follow that that's what my "they" was referring to?

No, since you say "...there is no money to be made if they say that..." followed by "All they have to do is doctor a finding here and there..." Scientists do not make money from the results of a study. They are paid to do the study, no matter what the result is. Politicians make money (from lobbyists) by advancing a position. Your "they" is unclear. Both times.

If you can't figure out who and what is meant by "they" there then there is no hope for you at all.

No hope for me because I can't read your mind? You said this: "...I have no clue, but there have been things I know have happened and how they happened that I have looked for online and either found them changed or not there at all..." Sugar, I can't even find the subject or verb in that sentence, let alone a noun antecedent for "they."

You write:

Gee wonder who she meant by "they"
Isn't Gore backed by most of the enviormental orgs. Don't They have an agenda too?

You seem to be implying that Gore is the antecedent of "they" in Mcgonser's post. But Gore is a single individual. Hence my assumption that she meant either the "enviormental orgs." or Democrats (more than one.)

That would be post #42
Hum, let me see...He mentioned liberal groups and then used the term they...hum, wonder who he was referring to.....

That would be the natural assumption, but this phrase "and, I will say that even if they have recieved funds, does not make his statements any less valid" clearly was written by Henry in defense of the scientist Tim Ball, who was funded by the oil industry -- NOT a liberal group. So rolling your eyes only underscores the fact that you did not comprehend the post at all.

I don't know why your screen shows the posts numbered one less than my screen does, but at least we are able to zero in on the same posts in question.

Anyway, the point I am making is that you, yourself, me, are the one tossing out all the undefined "they"s. In this thread, both sides have not "referred to 'they' in reference to findings about global warming."

It was a valiant effort, sugar, but you need to spend a few more weeks with the AP stylebook if you intend to continue using indefinite pronouns.

Not to brag or belittle myself.....but I was the guy that got a 790 in math and 450 in english on the SAT's......I wish I had this thread to help me study.

perhaps that is obvious to all of them.

I guess if you don't have a counterpoint to make the next best thing is to go off in another direction and start finding fault with the person who disagrees with or has a different opinion from yours....it's called diversion which there seems to be a lot of going on lately.

I was countering your claim that "both sides have referred to 'they' in reference to findings about global warming." Try to keep up.
