I have just enjoyed listening to and watching this pair of lectures from
the
Royal Society on the web. (There are actually two Tims giving talks.) I
think
everyone would find them interesting, not just those worried about global
warming. Bill Giles gets a mention, and Piers Corbyn has a walk on part
in the question time at the end.

Cheers, Alastair.



Alastair I can't get the video to play. Do you have to be a member ? If
so, stop showing off it doesn't become you.

Firefox doesn't play the video but IE seems to be OK for me.

Thanks for the link Alistair - very interesting. It was the first time I've
seen Brian Hoskins since I attended his lectures at Reading Uni about, er,
rather a long time ago. Sadly, I couldn't bring myself to watch until Piers
appeared though.

I skipped over the bit I had seen in broadband, and I reckon you could do the
same to get to the questions at the end, but they were not very
interesting/illuminating.

Cheers, Alastair.

There are four options depending on whether you have Broadband or not, and
whether you want to use Windows Media Player or Real Time. The Realtime
player is the one used to play BBC radio news items and video clips.

If you don't have either of those click on "checker page to decide which
player to use" and you can download one of the players from that page.

BTW Although I have Freeserve Broadband I actually used Real Player low
bandwidth because the high bandwith was breaking up.

HTH,

Cheers, Alastair.



Alastair, I'm using 2mb broadband, real player and windows media player and
it still doesn't work!
How are we supposed to trust these people on Global Warming when they can't
run a website properly :-)

It's not climate peoples' site. It belongs to the Royal Society which was
founded by Sir Issac Newton. AFAIK he was never a computer whizz kid :-(

Cheers, Alastair.

You don't get these problems with Fred Singer's site or World Climate
