Walshy, Dyson himself has made perfectly clear that he is no sort of specialist in the subject: " I am not an expert, and that’s not going to change. I am not going to make myself an expert". http://e360.yale.edu/content/feature.msp?id=2151

Yes Andy off course I know that but he has an expertise in phyics and mathematics, and if he says the models aren't right well I'll listen to him, and if I was studying the climate I'd listen to his advice to get the computer model right ...................

You'll listen to him because you agree with him? And you won't listen to the other scientists and mathematicians who say he is wrong? So much for objectivity. And what advice has he ever given on 'getting the computer model right' anyway? You are grasping at straws.

He knows next to nothing about climatology. We might as well be listening to what chimps have to say on the subject.

No offense, but chimps probably understand more about science than the likes of you.

Dyson is irrelevant. He says he isn't an expert. He isn't. The overwhelming consensus amongst the relevant section of the scientific community is that anthropomorphic climate change is real, and will have widespread harmful effects. This is the simple fact here. The denialists are largely driven by greed, ignorance or just plain loopiness, and their opinions on the matter are thus also irrelevant. Scientific questions cannot be answered by propaganda, end of story.

AJW is a self admitted Marxist. His post mirrors his politics. Global Warming to him is a politicall issue.

Marxists hate capitalism, the military, the police etc. Are you an exception AJW?

Right... just like the "relevant section of the scientific community" from four decades ago was convinced that same thing about global cooling.

Well I'd probably have a better all round conversation with said chimp, and not have to listen to someone trying to insult me or my intelligence or another human beings for that matter. You're a very small souled individual mate ................
