Anthropogenic global warming or AGW. Means caused by man. AGW sceptics (me) doubt man’s influence is profound enough to alter the climate.
anthropogenic (nthr-p-jnk)
Caused or influenced by humans. Anthropogenic carbon dioxide is that portion of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere that is produced directly by human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels, rather than by such processes as respiration and decay.

I agree that AGW is total BS, just one thing... it has to get AWFULLY cold before adding layers of clothing stops working, but once you’re naked, that’s it, there ain’t nothing else to take off....
Oh sure, look at the bright side... ;’)
Burt is a must to have on
No problem speaking to people he is not a shriking violet...
Anyway, all quiet on the global Warming front for now ... the HealthCare Takeover being the main battle now ... but keep your powder dry ... and hopefully Rutan can fire when the AGW battle resumes.
His Bonaifides are the fact he is a scientist and Al Gore wouldn't have the b@!!$ to debate him.
Go here for his files:

It just dawned on where Burt will get the Exposure he needs....
He needs to get asked to due a "Wall St. Journal Editorial"...
TD, good work on Rutan’s Oshkosh talk on AGW. The PDF is great but it’s 6+MBs...I would agree that BR is a terrific spokesman for rationality in the Climate area...hope to hear more from him about Technology/AGW and Space Flight.
