You want to give me sources so I can understand global warming.

I offered you sources so you can understand not global warming but the rational opposition to the litany of global warming. You are missing the point. The issue is not just about the science.

What is absurd, is your saying that the 99% of the top atmospheric scientists are fools or liars and you know more than they do.

Sheesh! Again, it's not just about the science. Of course I could not hold my own with your son-in-law in a discussion about the science. But I'd love to talk with him about what should be done with regard to his conclusions about the science. I'm quite sure I could hold my own in that arena. From your comments, I'm not at all sure he could. He may be a professional atmospheric scientist but I was a professional system designer, a problem solver. Task specialization matters. I know how to address a problem, and it sure ain't with a knee jerk.

The scientific conclusions are only the starting point of the issue, the identification of the problem. I have no issue with the problem having been identified. Climate is changing. Duh! I have posted that several times now but you keep attacking me as a denier. I am not a denier. How could I make that more clear? It's what we do about it that is at issue. Atmospheric scientists haven't been trained to do that and have no more credibility on the subject that a gynecologist or a football coach. Come to think of it, a football coach might have more credibility.
