"Old fogey"... interesting description by K the K. The old fogey no doubt has more brain in his little finger than K the K has in his whole body.
If we put Harold Lewis, Albert Einstein, Richard Feynman and Karl Popper up against Phil Jones, Keith Briffa, K the K and Mann of Mann Made Warming infamy, which group would look more like actual scientists? Most of the "old fogeys" are actually dead and although aging, I'd back the aged bloke and the dead on principles of science, rather than the Naughty Weekend with a Prostitute scientific principles of the unholy trinity of Briffa, Jones, Mann [even with Kant the Klutz thrown in].
