I haven't read much on this debate in a while folks.

Quote:
A surreal scientific blunder last week raised a huge question mark about the temperature records that underpin the worldwide alarm over global warming. On Monday, Nasa's Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS), which is run by Al Gore's chief scientific ally, Dr James Hansen, and is one of four bodies responsible for monitoring global temperatures, announced that last month was the hottest October on record.

Possibly because no major results have been announced recently, possibly because the weight of evidence means that the debate isn't much of a debate any more, or possibly because Christopher Brooker is a charlatan.

Well I for one don't mind the record-breaking temps in CoS these days--it's normally supposed to be in the 40's. Been in the 60/70's lately.
74F tomorrow--perfect for crawling around on the top of an RV roof applying sealant. Nice view of the Front Range up there too Smile

If I have to bet on a dog in the fight, I'll bet on the consensus of every meteorological society in the world that says GW is real and odds are it's largely man made versus a guy writing for one newspaper in the UK.

To wit, the Korea Times gives a lot of health advise but I'll still trust my medical doctor.
