WASHINGTON – It should be glorious to be William Gray, professor emeritus. He's the guy who predicts the number of hurricanes for the coming tropical storm season. He works on a country road leading into the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains, in the atmospheric science department of Colorado State University. He's mentored dozens of scientists.
He's a towering figure in his profession and in person. He's loud. His laugh is gale force. He can be very charming.
He's also angry. He's outraged.
He recently had a shouting match with one of his former students. It went on for 45 minutes.
He was supposed to debate another scientist at a weather conference, but the organizer found him to be too obstreperous and disinvited him.
Much of his government funding has dried up. He has had to use his money, more than $100,000, to keep his research going. He feels intellectually abandoned. If none of his colleagues comes to his funeral, he said, that'll be evidence that he had the courage to say what they were afraid to admit.
Which is this: Global warming is a hoax.
"I am of the opinion that this is one of the greatest hoaxes ever perpetrated on the American people," he said.

Link doesn't work for some reason.
ANOTHER example of the LIBERALS' HYPOCRISY. If the FREE SPEECH doesnt fit their agenda then they work furiously to squelch it. Pathetic!
So much for intellectual freedom.

Dr. Gray, for one, has no governor on his rhetoric. At one point during our meeting in Colorado he blurts out, "Gore believed in global warming almost as much as Hitler believed there was something wrong with the Jews."

Great quote. It also applies to many more environmental extremists than Al gore.
So true.

"Dr. Gray believes in observations and direct measurements. Numerical models can't be trusted. Equation pushers with fancy computers aren't the equals of scientists who fly into hurricanes."
i though the 'scientific method' was precisely this.....they had to throw it out the door with evolution, so why should we be surprised concerning global warming?
Wha?
Doesn't matter. By then libs will have moved on to the next hysteria-inducing, junk science fad. Global warming will be out but the hysteria will endure.
guess i was missed my point....can we determind the 'truth' that global warming is leading us to disaster by the true scientific method or by bogus number crunching?
In 20 years, he likes to say, the world will have cooled, and everyone will know he was right all along.
Then we'll be spending billions on global cooling at the behest of Al GORE III
Bingo - all this modeling starts with an assumption of the outcome. To say that climate is a complex system does not adequately emphasize the extent of the complexity.
