>> The worlds climate scientists are not defined by those people who believe AGW, but rather as the most highly skilled atmospheric scientists i.e. ones with PHDs in atmospheric chemistry that teach at the worlds great universities.

LMAO. That's it? Atmospheric chemists? What about all these degree programs in "climate science"? What about physics, chemistry, and paleontology? Dendrochronology? Nothing?

WTF about statistics, arguably among the most important items on the interdisciplinary list? After all, climate science has created entirely new statistical methods (discarding important established principles, like Pearson's r2 (dot-moment) correlation in favor of made-up statistics that actually show correlation lol)? The crux of the problem is measurement and you just ignore that altogether?

Some of the most competent analysis in the field has been performed by econometricians, who tend to understand the relevant statistical methods really well.

No, it is not just the domain of atmospheric chemists. That's ridiculous.

But those who question the claims are not part of the cohort because those in the cohort effectively marginalize such people. So, for example, Judith Curry is now persona non grata, as are others like one of the great living physicists, Freeman Dysan, as are many others.

There is no room for dissent. Which is the way idiots think.
