now for the attacks on the op, the source, and the writer.

Not really... its like the same article, over, and over, and over and over and over and over and over and over and over...

eventually when you guys get your heads out of the sand and realize that scientists are just fine, you'll move on to look for something else to wash, rinse, and repeat when nothing sticks.

like i said

We can register you in a VJ science class if you wish.

if i have any questions i can always ask my high school oceanography teacher

Aw man that was a FUN class.

It is cool giving advice to my science students as they are entering college.

How was Ann Arbor? Do anything fun, go anywhere interesting? It is a bit boring around here. You have to search high and low to find something to do around these parts!

I didn't get to go for logistical reasons- but I am almost sure the trip will be early January so I can incorporate the data into a talk I have later that month.

Oh and I also process data like any other scientist.

How such an inherently non-political topic has become so politicized never ceases to amaze me. The environment is important to everyone & regardless of whether one believes global warming is real do we really want to continue polluting the earth until we find the point of no return?

Personally I think part of the plan of those that obstruct reasonable science is to do so to make people nauseous of having to repeat clear, rational lines of evidence over and over again to an audience that is hell-bent on 'not getting it.'

Well in society you have the far left 20% and the far right 20% that refuse to accept anything that doesn't fit perfectly with their beliefs. On VJ it's 40% and 40%, leaving a mere 20% that are actually capable of seeing both sides of a given issue. As you know the global warming topic has traditionally been one of the more controversial issues on VJ with even more rhetoric & pig headed comments than usual.

Or science vs non-science, since putting it into context is what its all about.
