"This email is addressed to some of the leading scientists actively involved in the study of the Global Warming (GW) issue.Here's the summary of "An Independent Analysis of Global Warming by Heinz Lycklama, PhD.
This issue has become of much interest to people who would be impacted by any resulting recommendations made by policy makers and politicians if/when enacted.
As an independent scientist I have become concerned by the apparent lack of scientific consensus on the extent and cause(s)of GW among those scientists who have diligently studied this issue - therefore my independent research and analysis of the science behind the GW issue."
Here's another one for you ...

Joanne Simpson, the world's first woman to receive a Ph.D. in meteorology, expressed relief upon her retirement last year that she was finally free to speak "frankly" of her nonbelief.
Dr. Kiminori Itoh, a Japanese environmental physical chemist who contributed to a U.N. climate report, dubs man-made warming "the worst scientific scandal in history."
Norway's Ivar Giaever, Nobel Prize winner for physics, decries ClimateFaith (TM) as the "new religion." I do believe, faithful readers, that I called that in 2006, and coined the term for it? How about a little credit, Ivan?
Bernie Madoff? Amature hour. Once the veil is lifted, and some actual science is applied, it is Al Gore who will go down as the biggest scam artist in history.
As someone who has been paid to do climate research (as a programmer), I can state for a fact that getting grants involves politics more than science. You get much more money if you can suggest you may be onto something big and very little is bigger than the death of humanity, especially when you can whip the masses into 'helping' to avoid the apocalypse.
ReplyDeleteTo those critics who claim that peer-review solves this problem I counter that it doesn't when your peers all have the same motivation as you.
Imagine two cases:
1. I say X and you get $1 for disproving it and now we have to find something new to study.
2. I say X and you get $1 for confirming it and now we both get $2 for further research.
Case #2 works 'in favor' of the community until it all blows up like Global Cooling did. It's the same lemming behavior as what you see on Wall Street. People are people.
Among the many reasons President Barack Obama and the Democratic majority are so intent on quickly jamming a cap-and-trade system through Congress is because the global warming tide is again shifting. It turns out Al Gore and the United Nations (with an assist from the media), did a little too vociferous a job smearing anyone who disagreed with them as "deniers." The backlash has brought the scientific debate roaring back to life in Australia, Europe, Japan and even, if less reported, the U.S.
