That was funny Eric and is yet another example of why the climate fraudsters are not believed other than by gullible credulous people who want to belong to the dominant group aka Stockholm Syndrome victims.

Rob Honeycult basically called Scott Adams an ignorant sociopath. It probably shouldn't surprise you that Rob Honeycult's takedown was amusing rather than convincing.

But he did some of the sleight of hand arguing that the cultists always use. For example, in considering Scott Adams' comment about the poles, Honeycult burbled on about Antarctic sea ice, which was not what Scott meant. The point was the amount of ice ON the land, and accumulating. It takes a LONGGGG time for the glaciers to run from inland Antarctica to the sea where they melt and break off and drift away to be recycled back whence they came long before.

Blah blah blah boundary condition models blah blah blah physics based models. Ignoring Scott's point about picking the model that was successful. Reality shot out the bottom of the boundary condition envelopes so ooops a daisy. Financial models are also based on physics. Financial physics. Economists have mathematical laws, just the same as physicists do, and they make computer models out of those laws.

Both say "Let's assume a spherical cow" and then plug their spherical cow laws into their models.

Honeycult could just have written - yaaahhh booooo Scott's an ignorant sociopath. I read right through and he didn't write anything convincing of much.

He gave yet another example of what Scott Adams was arguing. No wonder the cultists are losing the debate. Reality certainly helps the Skeptics - a third of a century now since I began wondering whether Global Warming and the Greenhouse Effect might be a problem and whether we need to do sometihng about it.

So far, sea level rise at my local beach is about zero. And certainly zero compared with the tiny remnant of the tsunami I saw arrive from Japan several years ago. And much smaller than the little tsunami that surged around recently from local tectonic movement. Plant growth has dramatically improved and irrigation requirements are down. Air temperatures are on the cool side so a boost would be good for me, but we are heading for the 2020 Big Cool. No tropospheric hot spot.

BTW, the switcheroo was the heat not showing up in the troposphere but deep under the ocean - good trick to get from the troposphere to there without being noticed. And convenient that it can't be measured down deep. But like a troll under a bridge, we can be told in scary stories that it's there.
