Many thanks for your very helpful comments. Essentially I agree on all counts, and indeed the "sceptics ask, scientists answer" web-page that you have set up is exactly the sort of thing I had in mind as a possible minimal response that we (Tyndall et al, and even maybe the Royal Society if it wants [...]

Eventually, sanity spreads
The latest release of 5,000 emails from the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit (CRU) reconfirms what the 2009’s “Climategate” files established: Global warming is more fiction than science.
(…)
Warmists dismiss the leaked emails or complain they have been taken out of context. Not so. Collectively, the emails provide evidence of various crimes against the [...]

I have just stumbled across the daftest and most nebulous article on climate change ever.
Comment is Free, of course.

AGW Redux
Louise Gray contines to spew her climate science ignorance in the face of the barely twitching corpse that is the AGW fraud. She does this by riding to David Attenborough’s defence.
That awful Lord Lawson of the Global Warming Policy Foundation has accused rabid warmist and Malthusian thoroughly decent bloke, Sir David, of over egging the [...]
How times change…
In 1997 the BBC telethon “Children in Need” released this charity single that went straight to #1 and stayed there for three weeks - the song was everywhere. My mother even bought the CD single.
Yup, Lou Reed’s song “Perfect Day”. These are the opening lyrics…
Just A Perfect Day,
Drink Sangria In The Park,
Try drinking sangria [...]
Quote of the day
The European Union faces financial collapse in the near future. It is a good thing that they have devoted the last decade or so to destroying the economy by taxing an essential trace atmospheric gas.
This is what happens when millions of people collectively stick their heads up a NASA scientist’s rear end.
Global warming fraud is [...]

it seems we got the balance between realism and hype about right.
Anyone care to comment on the appropriateness of a scientist writing this?

CCIZ quote of 1922
Gemeinnutz geht vor Eigennutz
(“The common good before self-interest”)
– Rudolf Jung, Der Nationale Sozialismus (1922). It became Hitler’s favoured slogan for his philosophy.
It’s a measure of the success of the Left in disowning National Socialism that it’s still something of a surprise to come across nuggets like this. It would fit right in at the Occupy [...]
Aarggh – Disaster
Global Warming causes smaller tits……
If WWII happened now…
…I think we’d hear about it like this.

Gary Speed MBE (1969-2011)
It is rare that I find the death of a famous person shocking but when I heard of Gary Speed’s death today I was shocked.
A fine player for many clubs (he holds the appearances record for an outfield player in the Premiership) and a great player for his national team (but can I be [...]
Jo Nova nails it
Pointman analyzes the ClimateGate whistleblower’s tactics and explains why he, she or they probably released those other 200,000 emails but kept them hidden behind the 4000-8000 character almost unbreakable password. He points out there are no emails released yet between key scientists and people in power, hence the worst, most damaging emails may be kept [...]
An Open Letter to Dr. Phil Jones of the UEA CRU
As savage an indictment as you are likely to see anywhere……
I must be dreaming…
“It’s a wonder I’m here at all, you know. My pussy got soakin’ wet. I had to dry it out in front of the fire before I left.”
This of course is from the truly puerile ’70s BBC sitcom “Are you being served?” Is it offensive? Well it’s bloody stupid and silly and the [...]
Truly going Galt
I will not, under any circumstance, consider reforming and re-opening Barnhardt Capital Management, or any other iteration of a brokerage business, until Barack Obama has been removed from office AND the government of the United States has been sufficiently reformed and repopulated so as to engender my total and complete confidence in the government, its [...]
