"the question of dangerous warming was a good one to raise back in the late 1980s" That false datum ties in nicely with the deniers favorite 'cooling forecast in the 1970s' meme. A common thread in denier posts is the cutoff which makes AGW look like a fairly recent theory so as to lend support to the idea that more study is needed. Fact: the idea that CO2 might cause global warming was being reported widely in newspapers as early as 1953 Carbon Dioxide "Blanket" Promotes Warmer Climate - Edmonton Journal, May 5, 1953
"That is not science, that's just desperately seeking bits of information to back up a theory." http://scienceblogs.com/deltoid/2010/10/bob_ward_thinks_that_bob_carte.php
"Like many deniers of man-made global warming, Prof Carter's views may say more about his politics than scientific evidence" http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/cif-green/2010/nov/30/climate-change-sceptic-bob-carter | |

Thanks cap'n. That son of a.... This horrific article is a good source to launch a Carter series. Except we used Crocks for Christy, so we'll need a different title. | |

oooh I like Carter Confusion. Makes him sound like a dolt, which he is, unless he's a dishonest prick (which is also entirely possible). 'Calamity' is good too. | |

Dana Carter is no dolt. He is a smooth operator who has been able to influence politicians, do road trips with a sceptical senator through rural Australia etc. Plimer might be a congenital contrarian and a buffoon but Carter knows what he is doing. How about Carter the Confuser?

Well I should say he makes dolt-ish arguments. True he's no dolt, but he knows his audience is. | |
