No one is compelled to prdicate scientific belief on other peoples poltics.<br /><br />THE CLIMATE WARShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02578106673226403151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313427464944392482.post-35012118619529338332013-03-12T00:18:00.439+11:002013-03-12T00:18:00.439+11:00Booker is a real nutter:

I've just scanned the comments and...Yes, Nick. I've just scanned the comments and they confirm the conclusion that it's the bottom-dwelling 8% that Watts feeds off. Given the calibre of comments, I doubt Tony will sway too many even from the "Doubtful" category, let alone the "Cautious".<br /><br />Looks as if Tony has now given up on 'converting' anyone who has any critical thinking ability and a disposition to check facts. He's now following the Monckton formula and aligning himself with the rabid conspiracy nutters. <br /><br />(See the Shollenberger thread for an example - they are all tied up in knots arguing over which conspiracy theory they adhere to. Completely bonkers!).

Cites Lawrence Solomon as a "respected environmental journalist"...they're in denial about absolutely everything. Fancy Watts having to resort to reproducing his dribblings.<br /><br />You've given them a far more lavish send-off than any of them deserve,Sou.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09537772941984056434noreply@blogger.com
