From the sobering application of geological time, to issues with claims about the absorption characteristics of various atmospheric gases and the behavour of their molecules in relation to radiation retention, as well as widely assumptive deductions with regards to the interactions and interdependencies of atmospheric greenhouse gases and their effects on one another including the completely theoretical premise of positive feedback, to glaring lack of completeness of any and all atmospheric models relied upon by IPCC scientists studying the issue, the science, by necessity is so speculative and creative as to better resemble an elaborate artistic indulgence for entertainment (as boring as it is) than any objective and measured scientific endeavour. Coming from a professional background rooted in mathematic science one would be inclined to view these conclusions supposedly gleaned from the prevailing science as applied to AGW theory to be premature at best, dishonest at worst, and embarrassing at the very least.
I'm discounting my carbon credits to 10 cents on the dollar, they won't last long at that price.

Sure, they're worthless as tit on a boar, but how do you put a price on feeling good about yourself? Even John D. Rockefeller liked to give a dime to a child.

While I haven't studied GW as extensive as yourself, I've come to the same conclusions from just a few simple observations.

For one, just from watching the leader of the band, the Maestro Big Al Gore. First, he lives in an energy hog house, but that's cool, because he buys "green" energy. Must have one of them "smart meters" which separates the "green" electrons from the dirty ones.

Then he has marine bio diesel engines on his tub houseboat, which BTW is larger than my house. The last time I was at the marina, I didn't see any bio diesel pumps...but Al's ready once they get them installed.

Then he wins both an Oscar and a Nobel for his "documentary" on GW, while pushing for legislation which would require that carbon credits be purchased from folks like, well, Al Gore.

Somehow, I don't think saving the planet is his true agenda, at least on a personal level.

Another place where I glean my information is from the National Weather Service. Every day, they give the particulars for the weather. And seldom do we break any records for rainfall, snowfall, high or low temperatures, etc.

Just a couple of small observations. And I smell a scam.
