You people really do believe the most idiotic things.

So now its an opinion.. fine, lets go with that..

Opinion: a view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge:

So your view or judgment is formed on global warming, not necessarily based upon fact or knowledge.. Well if you admit you have no knowledge on the subject, then why do you keep commenting on it?

I made no such statement to agree with you. Coleman isnt here for me to question how he came to the conclusion he came to, I questioned how you are so dam sure he made no attempt to research his position, especially you just stated your stating an opinion, not based upon a dam thing, and thus you are doing nothing but wasting everyones time..

I stated a data point. Any implications are entirely on your side.

Thanks for that post, I was wondering if he was going to figure that one out.

And, no AGW promoter has ever provided any data to prove their AGW theory, either.

But, funny how you didn't use that standard just a few posts back. In fact, you quite obviously implied that just being 'scientist' was enough to make someone credible - and from the tenor of your posts - pretty much "infallible".

Actually their statements are related to the research they conduct, quite the difference.
In reality, I watched a slightly longer than 30 minute video of Mr Coleman, where it becomes obvious he HAS quite extensively studied the genesis of the theory of AGW, and why the "science" isn't science and never will be.

So that gives Coleman a pass to question him about how he came to his opinion that he expects people to accept as a fact? Maybe you should start questioning Coleman rather than giving him a pass.

An irrelevant data point at that because neither climate, nor the recording of climate began when "written" language began..
