With respect: we don't. We have FReepers who put up graphs and who discuss the science. AGW on FR is not remotely a good example of the Delphi technique in action.

If you want examples of bad, deceitful debate technique on FR consider the following snippets that I often see used to shut down and diminish contrary opinion:

"Birthers"

"Yawn"

"Free Traitors"

This might be an appropriate thread for other FReepers to post their own examples of dishonest debate technique.
