Off the 'gravy train' ("Meet David Evans," a new climate change apostate!)
Pittsburgh Tribune-Review ^ | June 1, 2011 | Masthead Editorial

It's most unsettling to the cluckers of climate change when one of their own leading adherents, who formerly toed the line, becomes skeptical and drop-kicks the "science."

Meet David Evans.

A scientist with six university degrees, Mr. Evans consulted for the Australian Greenhouse Office (today's Department of Climate Change) from 1999 to 2005. He studied carbon in plants, debris, forestry and agricultural products.

But while aboard the global-warming train, he found that the wheels got increasingly wobbly.

"The debate about global warming has reached ridiculous proportions and is full of micro-thin half-truths and misunderstandings," he says. "I am a scientist who was on the carbon gravy train, understands the evidence, was once an alarmist, but am now a skeptic."...

Whilst I am glad that he’s finally realized that climate “science” is anything but...I’m still rather surprised that virtually every physicist and engineer I know long ago questioned the data and mathematical methods utilized to build up the whole “warming” meme.

Oh, now that climate change is perhaps becoming as believable as an Obama speech, a new phoenix is rising from the ashes: cell phones cause cancer.

Global Climate Change was never about the Earth’s climate changing. It was about implementing social changes.

While it's not ionizing radiation, I believe it has enough energy to break hydrogen bonds, the bonds that keeps double stranded DNA in our genes aligned.
