She is the one that uses physics theories indiscriminately -- for example applying Bose-Einstein statistics to cloud droplet formation. This was actually included in her textbook on clouds released this year.@whuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18297101284358849575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28837843.post-56063561457883782652014-10-11T00:46:26.948-07:002014-10-11T00:46:26.948-07:00The term for a non-ethical panderer who insists th...The term for a non-ethical panderer who insists that others must be ethical: "flexible," one of the more pernicious terms in "the economy precedes life" school of "thought."<br /><br />Any rebuttal yet submitted to Murderdoch's flexible fantasy sheet?<br /><br />John PumaJohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12479974040070719985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28837843.post-42826365292275074442014-10-10T10:39:19.483-07:002014-10-10T10:39:19.483-07:00Thanks David! (Almost) Spot on!
First off, let us...Thanks David! (Almost) Spot on!<br /><br />First off, let us just put Gavin's revised ECS range as this information is readily available (looks a bit awkward, if you blame others for not having used the most recent numbers ;-)). The upper ECS limit would be as high as 4.7 C (rather than 6.1 C).<br /><br />Funny to see how Nic would avoid any discussion on mainstream blogs (while feeling perfectly at home at vitriolic places like BH, where he can essentially write whatever he wants without being criticized), only to let Judith (I assume happily) do the trumpeting of his work. Perfect share of the workload. And how is it that the oh so oppressed minority can freely voice their opinion on almost every occasion. One thing is for sure, I can totally understand why Judith ended her blog post with the following remark:<br /><br /><i>"I am very pleased to have had the opportunity to write this op-ed, and I am hugely thankful to Nic Lewis and others (unnamed) who helped me improve this."</i><br /><br />How could I not be happy for her. And how couldn't we all thank Nic for his unselfish efforts to save the planet from utterly biased mainstream climate scientists (who happen to have learned at lot more about physics than him, but then, why such nitty-gritty ... physics, paaahhh!!!).KarSteNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16117301462523147860noreply@blogger.com
