User talk:Notnd1947/sandbox

This is my first article and I appreciate your input. I hope that it is correct for me to respond in this way. I didn't think of the latent heat issues or the thermohaline circulation, that would require a discipline that I am not familiar with. I emailed a number of my professors and only two responded and the rest of my contacts have ignored this idea. If you want to contact me directly, my email in on the paper. -
 * Hi ; I grant that the water-freeze idea certainly makes for interesting thinking, though I'm dubious it is practical in execution. As for Wikipedia, since you're new here are some tips.


 * Sure this is fine way to get back to me in the sense of being OK (i.e. permitted), but if you want to be sure such remarks are read by the other party it isn't effective as it might be. I saw this only because your sandbox is still on my WP:WATCHLIST but I'll probably delist your sandbox next time I clean house (no offense).   And so if you really want to make extra sure someone sees a remark you can "ping" the other user in the message itself (like I pinged you in this one) by typing "" to produce this .   I displayed the keystrokes to type by surrounding them with the codes   and.


 * The first question to be answered is whether the concept is sufficiently notable, according to wikipedia's standards, to merit its own article? Essential to answering such questions are citations to what wikipedia defines as reliable sources often abbreviated in comments as "RS".  An undergraduate paper strikes me failing the RS criteria.  There is currently a discussion underway about PhD theses and even those aren't clearcut.   If your idea were not suited for a stand alone article, where do you think mention of it would best fit?  Somewhere in the Geoengineering family of articles?


 * If you want more input, you can post your idea to the monthly "Unforced variations" thread at RealClimate.org... the one for October is here but you'd get more response waiting for Novembers to open.


 * Last, I see you tried to sign your name in the comment above, but you used dashes instead of the squiggly tilde "~"
