    G'day GC
    I wouldn't make such presumptions GC, except I would hope that you have maintained your scientific integrity as much as anyone can (being human)
    Many questions, that's what is needed, not blind dogma and humiliation for those who disagree.
    I'm not a scientist so I am not going to attempt a response to your questions. I read various scientific opinion and try to apply common sense for my dynamic (ish) opinions.
    Some questions that interest me in response to AGW and my current thinking
    Is the AGW argument "over" (no)

    Is there really a consensus (no)

    How many "scientists" signed off on the IPCC report (included many bureaucrats)

    How many "alterations" were made after they "signed" (lots)

    What temperatures and climate trends has research produced? (higher and much lower (bad) (long term not hundreds or thousands of years, talking real data)

    What have CO2 levels been? (waaaay higher than now)

    Is CO2 as bad as they say (I don't think so it's essential for plants)

    Is the artic ice really melting like the media state? (seems not, seems to have increased in the last year)

    what comes first rising temperature or rising CO2 (temperature)
    If temperature first how can C02 be the cause

    Many scientists also starting to speak out, seems they are finding some strength in numbers.
