    An email exchange with Dr Richard Lindzen:

    Good day Sir,

    I am writing to ask a simple question: Were you, or any other well known skeptic, invited to take part in that infamous poll which stated that "Of those surveyed, 97% agreed about AGW"?

    Skepticalscience.org quotes this but it is still a mystery to me just who put out the questionnaire and who was asked to respond. Opaque, to say the least. I believe that to qualify, a scientist needed to have 20 papers published on the topic and you certainly meet that minimum requirement.

    How was this survey organized, were you invited to respond"?

    The response:

    No I wasn't, but that hardly matters. The question dealt only with such matters as 1) is there a greenhouse effect, 2) is CO2 a greenhouse gas, and 3) has the temperature increased over the past 150 years. None of these implies any basis for alarm, and I could readily agree with them. These surveys are largely misleading shell games.

    It should be noted that Dick Lindzen is emminently qualified and should have been polled if the poll were to be anything other than PR exercise.

    Please point out what question I posed?

    There are two legitimate responses: Discuss whether Dr Lindzen is correct or not or none.

    Nitpicking web addresses is neither.
