Bjorn, when I wrote; "I'm not saying that man made climate change isn't happening." I was simply, for the sake of argument, establishing that if it were being caused by us the current data could not be used to defend the position any more.

I personally don't think that we have any, significant or otherwise, effect on the global weather patterns on this planet. It's a form of insanity to think otherwise.

we are in full agreement!

ell stated and I totally agree. I would add that data from either side should be viewed with extreme skepticism until there is an overwhelming breakthrough. Even then, policy tied to any break through should be minimal or non-existant until there is proof! I saw something this morning where a NOAA scientist stated that Global Warming is NOT a theory. Whatever lady.....

I agree with this also! but since 99% of the media is not taking it with skepticism and go for one side full bore, telling us how it is...I`m just trying to balance out the discussion (which by Al Gores account is over), to try to get a balanced view , balanced info....to do that I will push for the side the media isnt....
