Jim Hansen's opinion

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Given how much skeptics love Jim Hansen,
I thought I'd post a link to his article
up on RealClimate.org

Hansen's opinion: http://www.realclimate.org/index.php/archives/2009/12/jim-hansens-opinion/
Thanks for posting this. I am surprised I haven't read any moronic responses along the lines of "it's only an opinion article so it, of course, means nothing! Or, global warming is a good thing and people will prosper and grow more food! (Er, ah, I've lost track of the number of studies and links to them that clearly show how many are currently dying and are projected to die from the effects of GW, ie far more than the non-existent ice age global cooling nonsense that some of the fools in this forum have tried to advance).
Oh, I almost forgot, look at the source: RealClimate.org. Oh please, how could those guys have even a modicum of credibility? They all ought to be on Haldol, IV push, in order to jolt them out of their psychotic states and back into reality!

New Scientist: Oops, glaciers won’t melt by 2035

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Dave Snope said:

The New Scientist swallowed its pride and has come clean about the hysterical claim they made in their magazine in 1999, that the Himalayan glaciers would be gone by the year 2035. It turns out it was just “speculation” by a glaciologist at the time. But the big deal is that this speculation became an IPCC “finding.”

And some of them may be growing in size, but it's a temporary respite:

Senate report on climategate- sneak peak

Posted By Rod Kaufman

You didn't even have to mention his name and sure enough, there he is. And what he's stating in his blog is the same poop he's always said except he and a few of his fellow conservative colleagues have added a few words here and there. Same BS on the so called, "Climate Gate"...
