Still have no sensible comments, have you, bonmot?

Ignoring issues, and baselessly criticising people who tell the truth is about the best you can do. Your silence on the issues I covered, I suppose, means that you have satisfied yourself that you were talking nonsense

In case there is any doubt, the full account of the conduct of the Climategate miscreants in relation to the paper on which bonmot sought to rely, is here:

The amusing part is the emails in which they disclose their actions, which were later leaked to the internet.

Vaclav Klaus has not done too badly, with only 11% of the Czechs believing in AGW. Better than the US, where 47% are believers, and our country where 43% believe.

His government is not free of EU and UN involvement, which causes the stupidity you point out, but he does his best, and he has approached many world leaders to back his stance, against the AGW assertion, so far without success, which says something about the corruption of politics. We have no world leader, apart from Vaclav Klaus, who wants to be honest.

Unfortunately, clicking the embedded link at the very top of that document took me to the Science & Public Policy Institute.

As you know, I do not place much credence in the thoughts of this neo-conservative think-tank, given the raucous rhetoric of the coterie at the helm;

You know Leo, having had a good look at your comment history, here on Online Opinion and in a google search ("leo lane" + "climate") you keep singing the same old song.

No matter what others have shown or written, nothing will sway you from your mantra - it is always the same.

Fine, live whatever daily life you have in your bubble, in your blog posts.

Just don't expect me to take any of your assertions seriously - they're very tired and quite frankly, it's tiresome to respond to your monotonous monotone in so many different ways.

Thanks, bonmot, I believed I was consistent, and you have confirmed it. I just keep telling the truth about AGW, which, fortunately, more and more people now accept.

You are consistent in your own way bonmot. You avoid the issue, and come up with material that has long been refuted. You stick with the material which no longer has validity, in your attempt to prop up the tired, and soon to be dead, proposition of AGW.

As CO2 has increased, global warming has ceased, so you could at least acknowledge that the demonising of CO2 has no validity.

You could acknowledge that CO2 has only beneficial effects, and the alleged detriment was that it would bring about catastrophic global warming, based on projections by the IPCC.

The passing of time has proved that the IPCC projections have no validity.

When Ban Kimoon took a punt at the 2007 Bali hot air fest, and made predictions based on the 2003 projections of the IPCC, although they had already been demonstrated to be wrong, he really put his foot in it. The more time that goes by, the more wrong the IPCC are shown to be.

The total warming of the globe over the last 106 years is less than one degree, only 6 or 7 tenths of a degree. Catastrophic? Hardly. We are barely out of the Little Ice Age, so have to be grateful for that warming, small as it is. The benefits are so obvious.

Sorry if you do not want more of the same, bonmot, but it is important that no one be misled, and there is always that danger, when you contribute to the page.

Bonmot "nothing will sway you from your mantra".

Pot, kettle black.

It comes to this in the end:

1. The sky looks very, very big.

2. The atmosphere is actually very, very small.

3. Those who can't do the calcs hide behind pseudonyms and cast around for opinions that satisfy their prejudices.
