This Week's Quote: "In religion and politics, people's beliefs and convictions are in almost every case gotten at second-hand, and without examination, from authorities who have not themselves examined the questions at issue, but have taken them at second-hand from other non-examiners, whose opinions about them were not worth a brass farthing." —Mark Twain

It's always hard to know for sure where the most alarmist climate change predictions come from. The predictions found in the science litterature are all about the end of the century, and yet, the most alarmist people will claim that they read said litterature. Really puzzling. It also, I think, muddies the water, as the legitimate comments about the present climate data will end up being systematically ignored by the deniers because of those stupid alarmist comments, thus creating a much thicker barrier to go through when attempting to convince people with actual scientific data.
