Schneider was one of my Profs when I was in graduate school. Back then, he was preaching Global Cooling. I think that he discovered that there was a lot more money in Global Warming.

He was one of the first guru’s of climate models, NCAR had a brand new Cray that was his pride and joy. I contributed some really junk data to that model. Probably still there today.

Cretin. NCAR should have gone with the NEC supercomputers.

Cheers!
