Of course they model the past accurately – they have tens of thousands of empirically derived constants based on past behaviour.
No they do not. Educate yourself about this before shooting your mouth of.

Poptech (15:42:20) :
We cannot have 11 different sums of all climate knowledge.
Of course we can. What I know is different from what you know. and people disagree as what is knowledge and what is supposition.

Poptech (15:46:59) :
Can a computer be programmed to get whatever results you want?
No.

Poptech (15:52:38) :
You actually believe you can run experiments on computers.
Absolutely, it is done all the time.]]>

etc.

And then do

foreach($countries as $index => $country_data) {
echo “{$country_data['country_name']} ({$country_data['country_code']})”;
}

and then in processing do..

$country = $countries[$formData['countryCode']];
$country_code = $country['country_code'];

A little simpler than redoing it 3 times.
