Neil,

Every time a thorough response is given to any question you have posed, you ignore it, switch gears and go on the offensive by asking more questions. In other words, you constantly change the subject to try to win points by shifting the debate elsewhere to accommodate your talking points taken from canned websites. Apparently that is what activists do to try to attract an audience.

Your latest material is culled from a newly spawned website run by John Cook. Here is his own descriptive bio, quoted from that same site:

Quote:
About the author
Skeptical Science is maintained by John Cook, the Climate Communication Fellow for the Global Change Institute at the University of Queensland. He studied physics at the University of Queensland, Australia. After graduating, he majored in solar physics in his post-grad honours year. He is not a climate scientist. Consequently, the science presented on Skeptical Science is not his own but taken directly from the peer reviewed scientific literature. To those seeking to refute the science presented, one needs to address the peer reviewed papers where the science comes from (links to the full papers are provided whenever possible).

There is no funding to maintain Skeptical Science other than Paypal donations - it's run at personal expense. John Cook has no affiliations with any organisations or political groups. Skeptical Science is strictly a labour of love. The design was created by John's talented web designer wife.
By his own admission Mr. Cook states he is NOT a climate scientist. He says he is a "Climate Communication Fellow" (whatever that means?) His activity is obviously that of an activist zealot. Despite the title of the site being "Skeptical Science", the admitted, more surreptitious name of the site is The Consensus Project. Genuine science is concerned with objective research. Propaganda masquerading as science is obsessed with consensus building. Supposed "truth" determined by consensus is no longer science (nor truth, nor provable fact), but entirely that of political dominance - dictated by consensus, AKA a polite term for majority rule.

Here's your chance to try to lampoon the commentary of an actual climate scientist (rather than rely upon quoting a "Climate Communication Fellow" as your guru du jour):
