Neither do I. But the overwhelming body of legitimate science that DOES work within said parameters speaks for itself - and we both recognize it [he, far much more than I because he's been studying it for what? ...two decades?]. That you don't recognize it, is YOUR problem, Shremp. As I mentioned, it says a lot about your vested ideological and emotionally based position. The approximately 20% remaining wingnut fringe has that same kind of mindset. > > Virtually every premise of global warming has been shattered. > LOL!

You haven't remotely backed up your outlandish claims against the overwhelming body of scientific evidence indicating man-made global warming, Shremp. Practically lacking in providing any widely-accepted-as-legitimate scientific evidence, and by continuing to insist you have, you essentially define YOURSELF as a fringe loon.
