  Really?  Then I guess Michaels, Lindzen, Singer, etc. must be
dishonest in your view since they have admitted that there the globe
is
warming.

"Is there any common ground? Of all people, Michaels insists there
could
be. "When it comes to it, the modellers and the sceptics are not so
far
apart," he says. Indeed, if pressed, Michaels, Lindzen, Spencer and
other sceptics suggest a doubling of CO2 in the atmosphere would raise
average temperatures by between 1 and 1.5 'C. And 1.5 'C is the bottom
end of the modellers' range of predictions." - NEW SCIENTIST: 19 July

  Lets, let Nature do the talking...

"The idea of man-made climate change used to be a minority view. Now
new research into the history of climate science traces the story of
how the minority won over the majority." - Ehsan Masood - Nature

It certainly does appear that the globe is warming.  What concerns s
me is watching politicians sit there figuring out what they'll do
about emissions when emissions may be the thing affecting it
the very least. -- Alleycat
