[Rhodes22-list] Global Warming Scam

[Ronald Lipton]

Is this the same John Coleman who was the pompous weatherman in chicago 
in the
80's? You trust a television weatherman over the opinions of the VAST 
majority of
real scientists?   It is a scientific question but a statement like  "I 
have studied. I have
thought about it. I know I am correct. " What bullshit.  No scientist 
would make
a statement like that.   We know what the evidence tells us with some 
probability.
There is strong evidence that the globe is warming.  Models say that it 
is probably
due to co2 - but the models may be incomplete or inaccurate.

I never liked Coleman.
