I asked him if he also denied "gravity, DNA, germs, heliocentricity, electricity, radio waves" and he replied he "has degrees in all those subjects". The first one he lists isn't suitable for this board so I'll use an asterisk: "F*wit. Elec eng & plant science".<br /><br />The electrical engineering might be okay for electricity and radio waves, but I can't see how any of the three make him an expert in any of the other areas. Interesting too that he touts those three "degrees" to prove his expertise in climate science denial.Souhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08818999735123752034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313427464944392482.post-29080671431460738572019-10-13T06:26:40.071+11:002019-10-13T06:26:40.071+11:00Climate change deniers, Trumpists (and in the UK B...Climate change deniers, Trumpists (and in the UK Brexiters) are largely from the same demographics. If you keep up with the news you will have read about their sexism, racism, and a willingness to turn a blind eye to some truly stomach turning revelations about the people they support.Andy Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14975141756383175819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313427464944392482.post-92090914598426204222019-10-13T03:52:22.906+11:002019-10-13T03:52:22.906+11:00I did not know sexism was still this bad before I ...I did not know sexism was still this bad before I entered the climate branch of the US culture war.

Sometimes in the first sentence they rush to claim they have impressive scientific qualifications.

One just happened to be several weeks ago. He has such a wonderful way of making the science come to life with clarity and persuasion. He just exudes confidence and credibility based on his personal scientific work and experiences in the arctic. He is so genuine that it would be difficult to reject his conveyance of the science. Deniers' heads would just explode if they were to listen to one of his lectures.CCHolleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313427464944392482.post-5179622553636234852019-10-12T03:34:07.896+11:002019-10-12T03:34:07.896+11:00What baffles me is that they will waste years of t...What baffles me is that they will waste years of their lives reading nonsense on their silly denier blogs, while practising collective amnesia on all their old phoney scandals that have come and gone.Andy Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14975141756383175819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2313427464944392482.post-72967642101121434652019-10-12T00:55:06.674+11:002019-10-12T00:55:06.674+11:00So true.
