Physicists, geophysicists, climatologists, meteorologists, oceanographers, and environmental scientists. Of that group you chose to look just at the climatologist and meterologist? Did you even look at the list and search any of them out?

And let me make sure I understand what you are claiming...That there are only 650 PhD's in climatology and meterology in the world?

You are insane, ingenuine, or both.

You're a lieberal alright.

It's been months but

Each state has a climatologist.
The American Meteorological Association (I believe that's the correct name) has a membership of 600.

Of course, I looked at the list. Some people identified themselves by profession and degree. Others didn't. I had no way of verifying anything without a great deal of research - which I hadn't the time or interest to do. I felt that if the petition had standing in the scientific community it would become part of the public dispute - mentioned in the mainstream press. It hasn't been - so far as I could discover - so I have reason to question its worth.

Your original claim was that if I couldn't refute the substance of the petition then it must be true and the IPCC wrong - a claim I find utterly pathetic. Do you still maintain that stance? Are you finished with name-dropping and name-calling? Can you argue a point or are you capable only of blowing smoke?
