Well that contrasts with the "they are scientists therefore they are right" argument which is refreshing.
I used to be a signed up member of SkS and I did follow their commentary. One morning I did follow their source links and then did a little googling and, I no longer trust everything they tap. I recommend it, seriously.
These are the guys who came up with the recent "moon landing" paper and the new improved "97 %" paper which has been pulled apart all over the place.
They don't do science, much.
That the Guardianhas decided they are a "media partner" is another reason I no longer read that paper, and as a lifelong middle class leftie I should be in their (the Guardian that is) demographic that is a loss to them.
No wonder they are going out of business...
