Hi I just popped back in and SI seems to have morphed strangely.

Yes everything you wrte about plate tectonics, biogeophysical cycles etc. is 100% correct and no big secret at all. For example see Danny Harvey's book: "Global Warming the Hard Science". The rates of these processes will change as CO2 in the atmosphere increases but not fast enough I think to make much difference to the scale of anthropogenic change. Changes in land based carbon fixation, methane release etc. seem like they will be more important.

I have been working on my new time series model of climate change. This latest one has a two layer ocean. Only since 2000-1 has the data been available to do time series modeling of the global ocean. The data is still very poor. But it makes a big difference to the results. Now my results look extremely similar to those out of global circulation models. Of course I only have six equations running on my Mac - it is much much less computationally intensive...
