It amuses me the great lengths people go to trying to downplay 70s global cooling. You're doing it yourself -- a few scientists, a few publications. If it really was only a few publications, and as trivial as you insist, then why does everyone remember it so well? And if it really was a crackpot minority getting undeserved media attention, where was the backlash from the alleged majority of scientists who didn't believe it? The majority these days are pretty quick to discredit anyone who questions global warming. It doesn't seem to me that there were many scientists back then labeling it a crusader's diversionary tactic.
