I do like it, I like it a lot - it perfectly represents the manipulative nature of the situation.
"...both scientific consensus and political will have come a long way." -- VP Al Gore, Kyoto Climate Change Conference 1997
> What does the "that" refer to?
The false dichotomy you seem so interested in pursuing. The ratio of cooling to warming papers doesn't mean anything when neither deliver accurate models.

I wonder if you are so obtuse that you believe that to be an accurate estimate of my position, or even a clever dig. It just makes you look desperate to avoid the fact that science plays little role in what has become an ad-campaign/power-grab.
- eesmith 6y agoIt appears that when you wrote: > Ah, global cooling - the conveniently forgotten scientific consensus you said it thinking it is essentially meaningless. Obviously everything that you and I have written can be viewed through the same lens of manipulation. There is therefore no point in continuing. I'll leave with a pointer to Asimov, who was writing about global warming since at least the early 1970 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6tSYRY90PA&feature=youtu.be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6tSYRY90PA&feature=youtu.be .
