Some Dare Call it Consensus – OR – Would You Like Another Piece of Fudge?

They call this a consensus?

This article contains a link to the DENIERS series of articles detailing big names in science with high skepticism of MMGW.

Warming is real — and has benefits — The Deniers Part II
The hurricane expert who stood up to UN junk science — The Deniers Part III
Polar scientists on thin ice — The Deniers Part IV
The original denier: into the cold — The Deniers Part V
The sun moves climate change — The Deniers Part VI
Will the sun cool us? — The Deniers Part VII
The limits of predictability — The Deniers Part VIII
Look to Mars for the truth on global warming — The Deniers Part IX
Limited role for C02 — the Deniers Part X
End the chill — The Deniers Part XI
Clouded research — The Deniers Part XII
Allegre’s second thoughts — The Deniers XIII
The heat’s in the sun — The Deniers XIV
Unsettled Science — The Deniers XV
Bitten by the IPCC — The Deniers XVI
Little ice age is still within us — The Deniers XVII
Fighting climate ‘fluff’ — The Deniers XVIII
Science, not politics — The Deniers XIX 

Fighting climate ‘fluff’ – the next to last title in the list of links above is an arty about Freeman Dyson.  This fellow was a sidekick of Richard Feynman. This ain’t no slacker.    Anyone who can reconcile Feynman and and Julius Schwingers versions of quantum electrodynamics is a skilled operator.  But then look at who believes in MMGW: Scientific scalawags who want funding, politicians who want to tax us more and luddites that want us to live in the societal equivalent of 1850. I guess it does not matter how talented Dyson is, they won’t let reality stand in the way of their religion.

In Dyson’s own words:

Today’s official mythology involves global warming, in a societal mobilization of another kind. The allure of the conventional wisdom has not changed. “Here I am opposing the holy brotherhood of twilight model experts and the crowd of deluded citizens that believe the numbers predicted by their models.” A heretic he remains, and, as history has shown, much more often right than not.

My god I wish I had a sprinkling of the talent this guy has.  You see, I’ve read some science history, I know.
