Good News: Lower Climate Sensitivity to CO2

Here's a recent article, albeit by someone AGW'ers will call a denier, that cites several peer-reviewed scientific articles examining and debunking the IPCC estimates of AGW:

Hmm, where to begin?
Let's start with the obvious. Even the author of the openly-biased website acknowledges nobody ought to draw conclusions from a snippet derived from a paper. For example, the fact that a particular author(s) in the link publishes a study doesn't mean, by any stretch of the imagination, that such a study is a definitive word on anything. To wit:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-15858603
and:
http://climate.yale.edu/publications/climate-sensitivity-constrained-co2-concentrations-over-past-420-million-years-0
So to state that anything has, in fact, been debunked here is sheer folly...
