1) Here we have...The supreme irony of all this is:<br /><br />1) Here we have potential good news but so many of the idjuts are stuck on saying it must still be bad news because ... "alarmists".<br /><br />2) It's based on MODELS. They then take that rather sudden and out-of-character trust in MODELS and implicitly extend it to all postulated climate tipping points.<br /><br />One guy said something along the lines of: See, we've been saying this for years!<br /><br />To which I replied: Well, since all models are always wrong, I'd hardly call that prescient.<br /><br />The response is <b>priceless</b>: There you go, making yourself look dumb again. Nobody said that all models are wrong. Just the GCMs.<br /><br />I wouldn't make this stuff up. I couldn't if I tried.<br />Brandon R.

Goi...Millicent - you are (unusually) optimistic :D<br /><br />Going by past experience, he'll brazen it out. Anthony rarely admits his numerous mistakes. He just repeats them. He only admits them when enough of his fans complain. His fan base keeps dropping in quality, so don't expect him to do anything but refer back to the article in the future - saying - "look see, Arctic sea ice is about to come back".Souhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08818999735123752034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313427464944392482.post-35159846512843069652015-04-29T20:27:40.133+10:002015-04-29T20:27:40.133+10:00I guess that, as he wrote this sorry stuff himself...I guess that, as he wrote this sorry stuff himself, poor Anthony cannot pretend he let this article get past him as an 'exercise for his readers to spot'. So will he brazen it out and rely on his remarkably unsceptical audience to ignore his stupidity? Or will he go the Heartland/McIntyre route and blame some unjustified confusion on the part of evil IPCC agents and issue a 'clarification'.Millicentnoreply@blogger.com
