“Don’t forget every five per cent increase in my legal offense fund is equivalent to a 41 per cent increase in Fahrenheit.”

Sheer genius.

Peer Review is also a weapon used to defend evolution against all dissent. Modern science isn’t science. Sure, some of it is correct, but a lot of it is politics. And not just the Global Warming stuff.

Another parallel to string theory. Peer review broke down there too.

I clicked the link thinking it was “womanizing”.

The public has been led to believe that “peer review” is somehow a magical test of the “truth”. In fact, there are thousands of “peer reviewed” journals — many catering to a small cabal of like-minded individuals, who review each others’ articles. It’s highly incestuous, and no guarantee of quality research, let alone of “truth”.

If you add 4C to it, that's a little over 7F. So, instead of that massive "over 25%" increase from 14.5C to 18.5C, you have an increase from 58F to 65F - or about 12 per cent...years ago Dr. Edward Wegman pretty much destroyed Mann's "Hockey Stick" scam by exposing how he had misused statistics to hide some of the actual temperature data which should have been included - in front of a congressional hearing, no less - and in so doing highlighted how inept the warmists in general are when analyzing their studies statistically - it appears their incompetence in the area hasn't improved at all......

Steyn ping.

Just in case you're not familiar with the basic science (and I really am now beginning to wonder), the current global average surface temp. is c.14.5C. Add 4C to that in half a century and you have increased the average surface temp by over 25%.

Speechless. OTOH, there's nothing more amusing than being condescended to by a complete moron. BTT

I share Steyn’s frustration in being a Climate Denier. Being marched by fascists into a totalitarian future is frustrating.

"Climategate" wasn't only about the science - "Hide the decline" et al. It was also about the general thuggishness with which Mann and his gang treated anyone who disagreed with them, however mildly: The science is settled. Got it? Nice little peer-review journal you got here. Shame if anything were to happen to it.

There's a reason over 90% of criminals are democrats...
