You missed the point about reflexivity and Popper on science. And ooops, the theory hit a bit of a glitch here and there: <The theory says CO2 going up will cause temperatures to go up. > A decade [actually more like 15 years] of stable temperatures. Ooops, our children won't know about snow [but on the other hand, maybe they will - by the blizzard full].

And some say size doesn't matter, and in fact isn't: <it's the realm of physics, a world so small you can't see the electrons revolving around the nucleus of a carbon atom absorb heat with just the naked eye, yet so large some say God can be defined by its combined laws. > Size is all how you look at it, or measure it, or time it. Ooops, going around in self-referential reflexivity circles again.
