Female Athletes Face Unfair Competition

 

Teen athletes have traditionally been  classified as "boys"  or "girls" so that  girls can participate in sports without having to compete against  boys who are usually stronger  and faster than girls.  This system worked as long as everyone agreed on which athletes were girls and which athletes were boys.  Today some disagree about who qualifies as girls and  who qualifies as boys.

One thing hasn't changed.   There are   two different genetic types  of  athletes.   One type has two "X" chromosomes.  The other has an "XY" combination of   chromosomes.     Athletes   who   have an "XY" combination of   chromosomes are usually stronger  and faster thaathletes who   have  two "X" chromosomes.        

To   insure  everyone  an equal  opportunity to participate in sports  athletes who   have an "XY" combination of   chromosomes should not  compete against  athletes who   have  two "X" chromosomes.   The  "XY" combination  providean athlete benefit   equivalent   to using  a performance enhancing drug.   Allowing   those  with    the  "XY" combination  to  compete against  athletes who   have  two "X" chromosomes  is  the  equivalent of  a  rule  that would  arbitrarily  allow one  group  of  athletes to use  a performance enhancing drug while prohibiting  other  athletes  from using  the  drug.

oxing has long  used  weight   classification system to   provide  lighter  weight boxerwith an  opportunit to participate without having  to  face unfair  competition from significantly heavieboxers.   "XX" chromosome  athletes deserve comparable protection   so  they don't  have to  face unfair  competition from stronger  and faster  "XY"  chromosome  athletes.  
   
   
 
The   "Y" chromosome can be detected using a microscop  because it is shorter tha the  "X" chromosome.     Thus   it would be easy  to divide athletes into "X" and   "Y" groups.

Texans Victims of "the Greatest Scam in History."

Texans  are well known for  bragging about superlatives associated with the  state. They brag about the biggest  this or  the biggest  thatThey probably won't brag about the giant ( the sixth position on the Fortune Global 500) corrupt  Texas energy corporation named Enron (aka "the Crooked E" ) that  created what Weather  Channel founder John Coleman calls "the greatest scam in history." before filing  what at the time  was the largest corporate bankruptcy in U.S. history

Lawrence Solomon published an expose' in the May 30, 2009 Financial Post detailing how the Enron corporation paid scientists and environmental groups to falsely claim increases in carbon dioxide would increase global air temperature known as the   " greenhouse gas theory" .  https://ep.probeinternational.org/2009/05/30/enrons-other-secret/

In the nineties, Enron executives came up with a new get rich scheme.   Enron owed part of its early success to  sulphur dioxide emissions trading.       Basically emissions trading was established as a way for some companies to profit from  po lution while allowing other companies to continue to produce the chemicals that can cause acid rain.

Enron  saw the  potential for even greater profits from trading what would become known as "carbon credits".


Solomon states,  " The climate-change industry — the scientists, lawyers, consultants, lobbyists and, most importantly, the multinationals that work behind the scenes to cash in on the riches at stake — has emerged as the world’s largest industry. Virtually every resident in the developed world feels the bite of this industry..."  which increases the costs of various goods and services.

Enron was an early player  beginning early in the  administration of Bill Clinton to push for a carbon dioxide trading system. 
Crooked politicians  such as Clinton and Joe Biden  readily supported Enron's scam.   The mainstream media automatically   repeated Enron's   claims without checking with other  scientists        

If  reporters  had checked  with honest   knowledgeable  scientists  they would have  learned  that  physicist R.W. Wood disproved this warming theory in 1909.   Philosophical magazine     , 1909, vol 17, p319-320. Cambridge UL shelfmark p340.1.c.95   http://www.wmconnolley.org.uk/sci/wood_rw.1909.html

If  reporters  had checked  with    scientists  like   Dr. Gerhard Gerlich and Ralf D. Tscheuschner   they would have  learned  that  sunlight heats material in a greenhouse which then conducts the heat to the air in the greenhouse.  The structure of the  greenhouse keeps the heated  air inside the greenhousehttps://arxiv.org/abs/0707.1161
          

The false  and fraudulent claim about  global warming / climate change has  created an  artificial energy  shortage  that can let people  freeze  in dark buildings. while allowing power  companies to   over charge for energy.              
  
The State of Texas   should  try to find a   way   to  prosecut those who  continue  to   push  "the Greatest Scam in History."
