“the scientific consensus on global warming” —Boris

Still repeating that canard are you? Lawrence Solomon (“The Deniers”) exploded that myth by having the head of the IPCC admit that the anonymous scientists who reviewed articles for the infamous report did NOT ratify their conclusions, let alone the policy prescriptions.

The fact is, many very reputable climatologists think the notion of AGW is pure bunk.

Then there’s this small matter of the earth’s temperature not having increased over the past ten years, and the “excuse” being that it’s only a temporary phenomenon — one the zealots couldn’t predict!

(which is, of course, why the hypothesis of AGW is not science — its predictions can’t be tested or falsified, but they can bre used to explain everything! A lot like Freud.)

And please tell me when in human history has science ever been built around a “consensus”.
Science would stop in its tracks if everyone just agreed with each other.

But I’m sure you didn’t mean to use a dishonest rhetorical tactic to bolster your case…
