I’ve debated with Judith Curry since before she started her blog. She invited Steve McIntyre to participate in a university meeting with students to “bridge” the gap between the Skeptics represented by Steve McIntyre and the Alarmists among whom she included herself as a more neutral or lukewarm representative. Then she spoiled her self representation as a more neutral observer by going on the Weather Channel and adding much fuel to the fire against Skeptics with her adamant insistence hurricane frequency and intenstiy was being increased by Global Warming. I inadvertently saw the Weather Channel broadcast of her comments because I was eating breakfast at a hotel where they had the Weather Channel on at the time.
Make no mistake about it, Judith Curry is very much an Alarmist who is taking criticism from other Alarmists, because she has the temerity to question some of the more extreme or egregious misconduct of fellow Alarmists.
hmmm, ok thanks for the info.
