1992 is the original date of publication of this paper??? I see. Well, I suppose I should have looked more closely at this refuted oldage before I pinged, but I had to put the Global Warming ping somewhere...
Link to Dr. Essenhigh's 2006 peer-reviewed paper expanding upon the 1992 paper. He sent it to me in response to an email I sent him.
From Dr. Essenhigh's email:
"On the matter of more, this is the Attachment, just published last year in another ACS journal, Energy and Fuels, that as a chemist you are probably familiar with. As you will see, this is more analytical, but it comes up with essentially the same result regarding the (radiative) dominance of water over CO2, and the conclusion that anthopogenic CO2 is unlikely to be possible to have significant impact on global warming. You will see one change between this and the original article which is setting the (average) water/CO2 absorption/emission properties to about 75-80% for water and 15-20% for CO2 compared with the (original) estimate of about 95%/5%. The change was taking into account the very much faster drop in water with altitude compared with CO2, but it still sets water as the dominant gas."
