>At the time, it was presented as a "chilling conclusion" .... they led people to fear we would be in a new ice age soon.

That "chilling conclusion" was from a very small no. of papers.. There was certainly no conclusive concensus that the ice age was a certainty. The Clean Air Act helped reverse an extended cool period, probably AGW would've reversed it by now (even without the Clean Air Act). Your progeny can than the scientists for that for fewer of them are dying from respiratory ailments now.

Neocons want to dismantle the Clean Air Act and bring back the acid rain, particulates, Ozone, Mercury, Lead etc., etc. in bigger proportions before. This was on their agenda when they were planning outsourcing manufacturing to the BRIC nations.

You take great delight in distorting scientific predictions (which are boldly made), in a pee poor attempt to show how "stupid" the experts are. I guess this is your Stalinist anti-intellectual disposition.
