The names of over 30,000 American scientists that reject the theory of anthropogenic global warming are to be revealed on Monday at the National Press Club in Washington, DC.

Somehow it seems a metaphysical certitude media will completely ignore this event.

As announced Thursday by PR Newswire via StreetInsider.com:

Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine (OISM)

Who: Dr. Arthur Robinson of the OISM

What: release of names in OISM "Petition Project"

When: 10 AM, Monday May 19

Where: Holeman Lounge at the National Press Club, 529 14th St., NW, Washington, DC

Why: the Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine (OISM) will announce that more than 31,000 scientists have signed a petition rejecting claims of human-caused global warming. The purpose of OISM's Petition Project is to demonstrate that the claim of "settled science" and an overwhelming "consensus" in favor of the hypothesis of human-caused global warming and consequent climate damage is wrong. No such consensus or settled science exists. As indicated by the petition text and signatory list, a very large number of American scientists reject this hypothesis.

It is evident that 31,072 Americans with university degrees in science - including 9,021 PhDs, are not "a few." Moreover, from the clear and strong petition statement that they have signed, it is evident that these 31,072 American scientists are not "skeptics."

Folks should recall that this petition was first circulated in 1999 garnering more than 19,000 signatures. The alarmists discounted its significance because there were some duplicate names, and some of the signatories apparently weren't scientists -- or so the story goes.

With over 31,000 now on the list, all with degrees in science, and 9,000 PhDs, what might this do to the nonsensical premise of their being a consensus concerning this issue?

Stay tuned.

Does this mean my “Global warming ate my homework” excuse no longer holds up?

“Yes, I wonder what the worlds leading climatological scientist, Dr. Albert Gore will say about this.”

I don’t bother about 31,075 dentists opinion on that issue.

Here’s an interesting lecture by an MIT graduate and professional meteorologist who worked in the Air Force and Army for over 20 years and picked up a ThM from DTS.

Oregon? Isn’t that where BHO said yesterday we need to get rid of SUV’s and eat less so the rest of the world looks more favorable toward us? Check it out. I can’t post links to this but, the MSM obviously can’t either.

These scientists should not go to a certain park around Washington, D.C.

But Gorebull warming is accepted science! They have CONSENSUS!

These heretics will not long survive once the Carbon Inquisition gets hold of them.

This is terrible. I have a tiny, tiny, little garden and thought I was saving the plant from global warming with my tiny garden. If I’m not, guess I will have to dig it up - there’s nothing left to live for now. I need to turn on all my lights and make air conditoner come on so I will feel better. No human made global warming? Say it isn’t true. I am destrought.

The MSM already has a story line, and have no interest in exposing themselves as the incompetent boobs that they really are.

They will ignore it, bury it, and downplay it as if they were politicians handling a scandal--which is pretty close to what they are.
