You missed the whole point of.........

:rotfl: I missed no point at all. I proved all your err information false or selectively edited to put a spin on it. You want to ignore that, thats your call.

man-made apocalyptic "global warming" madness

Hallucinating too. I don't think anyone here has made any apocalyptic statements.

Gore's film is an inaccurate piece of work.

Read my comments immediately before your comment. The one where the judge gave his finding. Or you can just ignore that too.

:rotfl::rotfl:Actually you did no such thing. You posted OPINION only. Which can be proven err by providing other sources which puts your pieces or opinions in question. You totally miss the point. Like I said, there is no consensus by science that man-made "global warming" hysterics are warranted. And you didn't read the proper link. The link was regarding a meteorologist who thinks Al Gore is full of bunk. But you can continue to ignore those things as well.

It's a rare court ruling like this, that almost restores my faith in our justice system.

Wait wait, there's a consensus all of a sudden?

Got it. Ignore what you don't want to see. Can't argue with that.

The only consensus I see is that Gore's movie is bunk. It's also funny to see someone take Gore's use of the word "consensus", and turn it around back at him. That's just priceless.

Perfectly describes you. You still refuse to see professional meterologists who disagree with Gore. Continue to ignore those things, and maybe you can soothe yourself.

Gore gets a cold shoulder
Steve Lyttle
October 14, 2007

One of the world's foremost meteorologists has called the theory that helped Al Gore share the Nobel Peace Prize "ridiculous" and the product of "people who don't understand how the atmosphere works".

Dr William Gray, a pioneer in the science of seasonal hurricane forecasts, told a packed lecture hall at the University of North Carolina that humans were not responsible for the warming of the earth.

His comments came on the same day that the Nobel committee honoured Mr Gore for his work in support of the link between humans and global warming.

"We're brainwashing our children," said Dr Gray, 78, a long-time professor at Colorado State University. "They're going to the Gore movie [An Inconvenient Truth] and being fed all this. It's ridiculous."

At his first appearance since the award was announced in Oslo, Mr Gore said: "We have to quickly find a way to change the world's consciousness about exactly what we're facing."

Mr Gore shared the Nobel prize with the United Nations climate panel for their work in helping to galvanise international action against global warming.

But Dr Gray, whose annual forecasts of the number of tropical storms and hurricanes are widely publicised, said a natural cycle of ocean water temperatures - related to the amount of salt in ocean water - was responsible for the global warming that he acknowledges has taken place.

However, he said, that same cycle meant a period of cooling would begin soon and last for several years.

"We'll look back on all of this in 10 or 15 years and realise how foolish it was," Dr Gray said.

During his speech to a crowd of about 300 that included meteorology students and a host of professional meteorologists, Dr Gray also said those who had linked global warming to the increased number of hurricanes in recent years were in error.

He cited statistics showing there were 101 hurricanes from 1900 to 1949, in a period of cooler global temperatures, compared to 83 from 1957 to 2006 when the earth warmed.

"The human impact on the atmosphere is simply too small to have a major effect on global temperatures," Dr Gray said.

He said his beliefs had made him an outsider in popular science.

"It bothers me that my fellow scientists are not speaking out against something they know is wrong," he said. "But they also know that they'd never get any grants if they spoke out. I don't care about grants."

I can make red text too. In fact I can even do green.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_M._Gray
Bill Gray is [often] excoriated in public, rightfully in my opinion, because he's essentially accused the entire scientific community of fraud ... and for no other reason that I can figure out other than he didn't get the funding he feels he deserves. As a scientist, he knows that the type of conspiracy theories he's suggesting simply cannot actually occur. This has led to a real loss of respect within the community for him

Gray's work has been the subject of significant criticisms.[8] The Real Climate website published a critique of the key points in one of Gray's papers.[7] They argue that Gray's work is fundamentally wrong because most of his pronouncements on climate change and its causes are based on 'fundamental misconceptions on the physics of climate'.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_Climate
The creation of RealClimate was noticed by both the prestigious academic journals Science and Nature.[2][3]
In 2005, the editors of Scientific American recognized RealClimate with a Science and Technology Web Award, writing:[4]
A refreshing antidote to the political and economic slants that commonly color and distort news coverage of topics like the greenhouse effect, air quality, natural disasters and global warming, Real Climate is a focused, objective blog written by scientists for a brainy community that likes its climate commentary served hot. Always precise and timely, the site's resident meteorologists, geoscientists and oceanographers sound off on all news climatological, from tropical glacial retreat to "doubts about the advent of spring."
In 2006, Nature compiled a list of the 50 most popular blogs written by scientists, as measured by Technorati. RealClimate was number 3 on that list.

Another RealClimate reader, woot!

As regards Gray, there are always dissenting vioces. One man does not a consensus break.

I hereby apologise to the English language.
