"Here's the raw truth:
All the computer models are wrong. They have not only failed to predict the
future, they can't even predict that past.
That is, when you run their software with the data from, say, the 1970s or
1980s, and project what should happen in the 1990s or 2000s, they project
results that have absolutely nothing to do with the known climate data for
those decades.
In other words, the models don't work. The only way to make them "work" is
to take the known results and then fiddle with the software until it finally
produces them. That's not how honest science is done."
"Science isn't done by consensus. It's done by rigorous testing. When a
hypothesis -- or a computer model -- fails to correspond to the actual
real-world data, you throw it out."
"And Kerr quotes glaciologist Richard Alley of Penn State:
"The ... data are sufficiently convincing that [solar variability] is now
the leading hypothesis to explain the roughly 1,500-year oscillation of the
climate seen since the last ice age, including the Little Ice Age of the
17th century" (p.8)."
Asher tells us, on the other hand, that it is ALL caused by man. He cries
that there is NOW nothing that we can do about it and that the whole earth
will suffer from Bill C's back surgery and all of the energy that it took to
perform it.
Asher of course, is a true believer. He will see nothing but anthropogenic
global warming no matter what real science says.
