Big pile of festering horse manure and a character assasination of Dr. Tenbeth. Foster knows squat about the state of the science. Financial Post and the National Post have this tendacy to print these intentional misleading editorials on AGW. Shame.

It is the absence of the real world to follow the models that is the alleged “travesty.” I'd go further, its a travesty that alarmists aren't willing to consider that the theory built into their models might be wrong. At present, they've admitted (they meant to keep it secret - thank you climategate leaker) that the failure to predict the absence of global warming is a big problem. But instead of examining their premises, they're ginning up new model scenarios that say the missing heat "may" be hiding in the deep ocean (where we conveniently can't measure it). They don't explicitly say it IS hiding there. They say our models say it can be. The leap from 'may' or 'can' to 'is' is implicit - the headline writers do that for them.
