COMMENT OF THE DAY:
Any time an AGW groupie talks about the "science is settled" or "consensus" it is good to remind them that science is not driven by consensus, it is driven by the 1 skeptic who can prove something, then have others following his procedures arrive at the same results. If science were ever truly "settled" we would still be living on a flat earth at the center of the universe, matter would be up of 4 elements (fire, water, earth, air), and the cutting edge of medicine would involve the use of leeches. After all, all 3 are examples of scientific consensi (consenses?) of their day. Politics, not science, is driven by consensus.
