Just a simple question - if out of 100 scientists contacted, only 19 had seen it, which type of folks do you suspect the 19 are? Gore fans or not Gore fans?

Our local weather man does not like Gore and just thought his first book was total bunk. However, he said that a good portion of this movie is based on fact. I was really surprised.

Science co-opted by political whim is doomed. I'd like to see a complete list of these so-called "top climate scientists", who they get their grant money from and who they gave political donantions to in the last five years.

Apparently the AP is getting even more lax in trying to come up with facts to support their case.
I would've expected something more like "All scientists that responded to the AP poll agreed the science was mostly accurate." And leave out the fact that only 19 of 100 responded, and that all of them had to have seen the movie for it to be counted as a response.

The headline should read
"Only 19% of Climate Scientists OK Gore's movie for accuracy."

This is pretty much how political "polls" seem to be conducted. The NYT probably calls people on their subscription list when doing their polls, which means they are all baised from the start.

Why isn't the headline "Only 20% of US Climate Scientists Believe Algor"?
And if the movie presents an optimistic view, are we making plans to evacuate the portions of the planet that will be underwater when all of the ice melts? Or merely trying to change the global economy?

"Excellent," said William Schlesinger, dean of the Nicholas School of Environment and Earth Sciences at Duke University. And this guy was a Kerry campaign contributor. I really trust his judgement.

Most scientists had not seen the movie, which is in limited release, or read the book. But those who have seen it had the same general impression: Gore conveyed the science correctly In other news, most scientists have not attended an "Institute for Creation Research" meeting. Those who have attended have the same general impression: Evolution is bunk.

Exactly. Nobody who is on one-side of a scientific issue would go see an obviously biased presentation by a political non-scientist which has already been factually discredited.
It's like asking one hundred people of all ages if they thought the new Pokemon cartoon was as good as "Citizen Kane", and announcing that one hundred percent (the three kids in the survey) of those who saw the cartoon believed it was even better.
