I don't know why I cannot get this across to you guys. 1) 97% of the top PHD atmospheric chemists who study this phenomenon say AGW is real and dangerous. That should be all you need to know. Anyone with little education in this field arguing with them is a fool. IN fact at 97% anyone who does not take them seriously is a fool.
2) The issues you keep bringing up elementary and have all been considered by these scientists and are actually very very simplistic. You don't seem to understand what they DO know and what you DO NOT know and there is no chance any of these scientists overlooked the stuff you are bringing up.
3) You deniers keep saying the scientists believe in AGW because they are being paid off (which is nuts by the way), yet when it is shown guys like Lindzen are actually being paid big money ($2,500 a day to talk their crap), then it doesn't matter.
There is no logic to your arguments, just rants.
<<Koan:
Who cares where his money comes from or whatever. This is the same trick the left plays over and over again. Demonize the opposition but never engage their arguments. Instead of being concerned about who funds a scientist, I would suggest that you ask yourself these questions.
1. The MWP is an historic fact that has never been questioned until Global Warming Theory emerged. Has anyone successfully answered the question of how the earth warmed in those pre-industrial times.
2. AGW theorists claim there will be a hot spot in the southern troposphere if the theory is correct. Where is the hot spot?
3. Can you name one AGW computer model that has acccurately explained what we are seeing?
4. Do you totally dismiss the obvious fraud evident in the Climate gate emails?
5. How do you account for the growing evidence that the earth is not warming and the ice caps are again growing?
I am not going to go on because you will probably answer with the DEm Talking points that there is a mythical consensus? This is all you can do, because you can't answer the questions. There appears to be no one on the global warming side that will debate the issue, because there is a consensus, according to them. The fact is Gore and his cronies know they can't defend their position.
By the way on the Climate Depot site there is a list of 1,000 scientists that disagree with AGW.
I will write your answer for you.
My son-in-law blah blah blah
153% of scientists agree with AGW
