No I didn't. I said that it's something like that from a 30,000 view. I even put being happy about a +/- 50% difference without a problem.
But if I put 1 energy into object x, at the simplest I'll get something about 1 temperature more if that object is in a vacuum, given enough time. Sure, it's never as simple as that, but that's all I was saying, plus/minus several dozen percent, from a bird's eye view. And greenhouse gases don't just trap incoming energy, but also serve to suppress black body radiation... and are 50% higher now than they were some centuries ago. So, point being, do I agree with you that black body radiation is the ultimate end to climate change? Absolutely. But I've just got to look over at Venus and the Sun to see how that dynamic plays out elsewhere and it's much hotter than 300 K.
