<<And by the way, a Phd is much more about perseverance than brilliance. I have worked with mediocre Phd's and brilliant people with no degree.

I never said it was about brilliance, those are your words. I don't even think that way.

It is about knowledge which is what one gets when they try to understand things. People learn all sorts of stuff and we usually go to the peope who know things like plumbers and doctors.

Atmospheric scientists are the same thing. They study the subject, most don't, and so we should listen to them.

Now doesn't that make sense?
