Has my account been hijacked by a global warming skeptic?

Question

I just noticed that a couple weeks ago, in the comments to one of my questions a 'skeptic' told me

"Dana, the day you vote a "skeptic" best answer is the day I know your account's been hijacked."

As a complete coincidence, the BA to 2 of my last 4 questions have gone to 'skeptics'

So now I'm worried - we know the 'skeptics' are always right, so does this mean my account has been hijacked?!

Answer 1

You gave me a best answer once.

Quite a day....

--------

Edit:

I have even give best answer to you, Dana. And several other proponents. If it is the best answer, then it is the best answer. Shouldn't matter which side they are on.

Answer 2

Don't worry Dana, I've given best answer to skeptics too.  Of course I was just asking people's ages...

Answer 3

Your first question was asked of the skeptics only.  The second wasn't, so either you were hacked or you're starting to see the light.  

Maybe you've noticed that NASA's been tampering with their GISS numbers to change past weather history, or seen IPPC scientists quit in disgust.

Answer 4

When you look in the mirror, do you see that you are constantly talking and not listening?

Even if you hold your hand over your mouth...

...that you "Will not be silenced"?

Maybe that's what's happened, he-who-will-not-be-silenced has decided to be heard through other people...

I don't think your account has been hijacked... I think your channelling Randall!

Oh, d*mn... here come's Occam's razor again and it says, wait for it... no! You're not channeliing, your just a fair-minded person open to dissenting opinion and good debate!

Answer 5

No...you have a problem with (tact)..."my opinion." There's been many a times I wanted to vote you as BA. But I keep remembering all those denialist accusations. It seems to be the primary implication of your whole argument and not GW.

U ask.

Answer 6

Hopefully not.  So did you give me BA for "AGW 'skeptics' - where is the flaw in AGW science?" -- or was that a hacker.

Any way you accidentally hit the button?  Or do you know it's happened to multiple questions?  I would assume Y! would be difficult to hack but I could be wrong.

If you really did get hacked -- send an email or note to a Yahoo! admin & let them know, then get a new account.  Not sure what else you can do.

That's a bummer.

Answer 7

I've given best answer to "believers" too, lol!  I don't remember ever getting best answer from a "believer."

Answer 8

No it hasn't been hijacked, you were being fair and balanced, just like Fox News.

Answer 9

Maybe it was one of these guys:

Answer 10

No, you are a sceptic, of both the evidence for and against global warming, which is why you're managed to completely discredit the denial propaganda and understand the science and remain very concerned about the issue.

That's also why you could care less what someone's political beliefs are when selecting the "best answer".  It's not about politics or "sides", just the facts.  

It may frustrate the agenda-driven participants here to no end, but your account can't be hijacked by a sceptic, because you're more sceptical than they are!
