re: Hey Mr. S....

Hi

Unfortunately, I've been too busy over the past several weeks to have followed up on this excellent thread, which I suppose is somewhat irresponsible of me, since I started it, but more urgent responsibilities must take priority.

Beyond that, when the insults, name-calling, and other ad hom tactics begin, I try to turn the other cheek, and while I probably will not respond, I do take notice.

Just for the record, I am no creationist. Spiritually, I consider myself an agnostic. I am keenly aware that our current scientific knowledge has many gaps, and I strongly suspect that current dogma may contain errors. I know that it contains enormous "fudge factors" such as dark matter and dark energy.

As for AGW, there are many who disagree. Smith's touted refutation of Gerlich and Tscheuschner takes 9 pages, most with several calculations. I haven't been able to wade through it all, but I will note that most truths can be expressed clearly and simply. We hear a lot about heat building up in greenhouses and closed-up cars out in the sun, but not much about what happens to all that heat once the sun sets.

Thanks for the smile.
