Come on, Peter: name them. If you've got such precise data - 97% no less - you must be able to tell us who they are. Individually. Each and every one of them.

Or are you just pulling figures out of your @rse?

And what about other scientists?

Oh, but you'll whine, they're not *climate* scientists, are they?

Yet, as Tim Flannery grudgingly admitted on Q&A, most climate scientists are 'climate scientists', are they? They have, as he admitted, come to climate science from other fields.

Also, climate science is highly inter-dependent with other sciences, so what other scientists have to say about it *does* matter.

Peter A said

"You keep saying the warming has not increased you are totally wrong and just cherry picking, the last 12 months hottest on record and this year could be the hottest, and it is a La Nina period and low solar activity.
Typical of denialists they twist the facts.
Just try reading http://www.skepticalscience.com/global-cooling.htm"

Peter - You should read the BBC interview with the notorious Phil Jones from the CRU who admits there has been no statistically significant warming since 1995.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8511670.stm

He also admits there has been cooling since 2002 though he claims it is not statistically significant.

This mob http://www.nesdis.noaa.gov/news_archives/record_temps_2010.html is involved in the "socialist/communist plot" - the whackos will destroy the "nuclear family", so we are told.

How long is a 'trend' ?

If memory serves me correctly, last year's northern winter was one of the coldest for decades. This current northern winter is the coldest on record in many places in Britain.

And it's not even winter there until tomorrow.

All of this only has relevance in relation to anthropogenic global warming, which has done its dash now, with a wake to be held in Cancun.

Alan Caruba reports on the hot air fest to be held in Cancun:

“A climate mafia has existed since the gathering in Kyoto, Japan, to establish the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. …
its real purpose was to create an entirely bogus system of emissions trading to be known as “the carbon market.”

The United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is a criminal enterprise set up as a mechanism to facilitate the sale of bogus “carbon credits” and to transfer billions from industrialized, developed nations to those that have failed to keep pace. This latter scheme is little more than extortion.

In 2007, the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded jointly to Al Gore and the IPCC for their efforts to further this fraud.”

In another column, celebrating Climategate day 20 November 2009, he says:

“It was the day that Cap-and-Trade legislation, the largest tax ever on energy use, was eviscerated as lacking any basis in science. The legislation proposed to establish a “carbon credits” trade that would have enriched the Chicago Climate Exchange created by investors that included Goldman Sachs. Following the "global warming" hoax revelations, the Exchange would close its doors within a year.”

AGiR, sorry for not getting back to you sooner, but, how could you make such an outrageous suggestion?

They were all wearing Koala or Kermit suits & carrying dog eared old copies of their "son of god", Chairman Mao's "Little Red book" covered in bright green contact. Just to protect the pearls of wisdom within, mind you, nothing to do with "hiding the truth" from anybody.

Have you seen these mate?

Throw in the "Frankfurt School's" influence & even "Right Wingers" like Senator Arbib, Kevin Rudd, etc, etc, etc, have been completely conned by the "Politically Correct Thought Police", tragic really.

Ben Chifley & B A Santamaria would be turning in their graves if they could see the full horror, of what the Red, green, getup, labour, socialist Alliance has degenerated into over the last few decades.
