The best part of this story is that he is/was a professor from the second most liberal school in America...

"It's like there is an elephant charging in and you worry about the fact that there is a fly sitting on its head. It's just a total misplacement of emphasis,"

Great analysis!

The release in February of the latest report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) put the likelihood that human beings are the cause of global warming at 90 percent.

When a bureaucrat says there is a 90% chance of something, he is saying that he has absolutely no clue. It is a maybe/maybe not statement. The 10% is just a place-holder, so when the maybe not happens, be bureaucrat has a way out.

Does anybody seriously think this 90% figure was arrived at through any rigorous scientific process?

Nah, the best part of this article was the fact that the only people they could find for a rebuttal were an ASSISTANT professor of atmospheric and oceanic studies and an ASSOCIATE scientist (read grad students). Plus, when’s the last time you read a pro-global warming article where they included an opposing opinion?
