we used to have to be very careful to remove water vapor from our samples

One of the points I see consistently mentioned in critiques of the "Computer Modeling" that is being done on "Global Warming" is that the studies don't give the changes in Cloud cover enough weight. "Increase in warming would lead to increase in cloud cover which would decrease warming" is the typical comment.

p.s. Regarding switching from a carbon to a hydrogen economy... water vapor (product of carbon and hydrogen combustion) is also a greenhouse gas.

Isn't water vapor by far the chief greenhouse gas? like 80% or 90%? I remember reading something to that effect.
