...and how, pray tell, does your link counter what the German scientists say? There is NOTHING there to counter it...it doesn't even mention it. And I ask again: why aren't you eagerly embracing claims that global warming is bogus? Aren't you at all encouraged that the alarmism is wrong and millions aren't going to die? Why are you so unhappy, Rick, at ANY news that counters the claims of catastrophe for mankind? Because as far as I can tell, from a layman's perspective, the evidence for global warming/climate change is compelling, the vast majority of legitimate climatologists concur that the threat is real and dire, and those with whom you choose to align yourself are of the same mindset as those who denied that cigarettes cause cancer or those who are currently fighting health care reform. In other words, they don't give a damn what happens to people, individually or collectively, short-term or long, as long as it doesn't impact their bottom line. And they're always going to find a certain subset of the population, in which you are included, who is susceptible to their propaganda.
