Trying to impress? Well.. I would add following: 1) Can you measure temperature with error less than 0.1C? 2) Do you know about how big is measurement uncertainty for your data? 3) Do you know that satellite temperature measurements are models, calibrated by ground temperature? 4) Do you know that most of temperature measurement is done in urban areas, biasing the measurement? 5) Do you know something about 'butterfly effect'? (great differences in state trajectories by some time, which reduces prediction horizont of your model, depending on measurement error) 6) Do you know that reality is more real than any model? I am quite sure most of IPCC climate scientists won't pass even 3 of these 6 points. :-(( -- Martin Tomasek "Those who sacrifice liberty for security deserve neither." --Benjamin Franklin _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
