Comments by "Daniel Larson" (@daniellarson3068) on "Russian Economic Numbers - Hidden Message in the Data - 444" video.
I'm not a numbers person. Maybe, he would consider me an anomaly. I can do numbers, but they make me zone out. I look at the photography. Statues of working people behind him. Did you notice there were no pickup trucks? I guess it's a good thing there are numbers people. Numbers make one see patterns. These patterns help you understand the physical world. In this case he sees the numbers that show the collapse of the Russian Empire. That kind of thing is important. Sometimes, I wish I was a numbers guy too. Good thing there are people like him.

Lots of comments after the main comment. Times are indeed changing. I saw no comments denying climate change. Some say it is good. Some say it is bad. None deny reality. There are a lot of people with numbers proving it is reality. Unlike Russia, the numbers are not made up.

@Heater-v1.0.0 The weather is constantly changing. It's not consistent. It never has been. Why should climate change proceed in a consistent manner? What does the long term trend tell you?

@Heater-v1.0.0 Not so. There are ice cores, tree rings and other indications of what weather has been like in the last thousands of years. The last thousand years is easier as men have had civilizations for the last thousand years and have made records. The writings are examined to get a good idea of the weather. Climate can be extrapolated from that. Scientists are largely in accord that global warming is a real event. Discord in this belief may have been created by special interests. They have financed groups like the Heartland Institute to help sow this discord. It's worked quite well for them.
