"Dr. Barnett's claim that his (the Scripps) model's good prediction of ocean temperature measurements has settled once and for all the "truth" that global warming is overwhelmingly man made, is not a view shared by other equally reputable and qualified specialists."
lrj then c&P'd a commentary by Benny Peiser, a social anthropologist. Just the sort of "equally reputable and qualified" specialist you would seek out to appraise marine physics. Benny didn't mention oceans in the c&p. And lrj's response?
"Wouldn't have a clue and am not particularly interested."
Such standards of logic might suffice for lrj, but it sure was a "pants down" experience for Prof Bellamy when he took the "expert" advice of a former architect turned nutter. Perhaps lrj could post a rebuttal by an equally reputable and qualified specialist. I shall look forward to it; after all, lrj did suggest more that one specialist, so he should have a choice of articles to post.
