By The Time I Returned To Czechoslovakia,

Czech Republic Is An Important Part Of Central Europe. It's Clear That We Must Participate In European Integration. I Am Convinced That The Czech Republic - Or, In The Past, Czechoslovakia - Would Have Been One Of The Founding Members Of The Eu If It Hadn't Been For The Communist Takeover In 1948.

This Is Crossing The Rubicon, After Which There Will Be No More Sovereign States In Europe With Fully-fledged Governments And Parliaments Which Represent Legitimate Interests Of Their Citizens, But Only One State Will Remain. Basic Things Will Be Decided By A Remote 'federal Government' In Brussels And, For Example, Czech Citizens Will Be Only A Tiny Particle Whose Voice And Influence Will Be Almost Zero. ... We Are Against A European Superstate.

By The Time I Returned To Czechoslovakia, I Had An Understanding Of The Principles Of The Market.

To Reduce The Interpretation Of The Causality Of All Kinds Of Climate Changes And Of Global Warming To One Variable, Co2, Or To A Small Proportion Of One Variable - Human-induced Co2 - Is Impossible To Accept. Elementary Rationality And My Decades-long Experience With Econometric Modelling And Statistical Testing Of Scientific Hypotheses Tell Me That It Is Impossible To Make Strong Conclusions Based On Mere Correlation Of Two (or More) Time Series.

The Climate Change Debate Is Basically Not About Science; It Is About Ideology. It Is Not About Global Temperature; It Is About The Concept Of Human Society. It Is Not About Nature Or Scientific Ecology; It Is About Environmentalism, About One - Recently Born - Dirigistic And Collectivistic Ideology, Which Goes Against Freedom And Free Markets.
