While I appreciate the compliment, I am afraid I will have to disappoint you by pointing out that I am quite sure Einstein, Feynman and Popper, all three of whom I have read much of, would have agreed with Hansen and Mann, and in global warming.

And I feel landshark is one of the sharpest minds on this thread.

"Feynman, Einstein and Popper espoused. Compare Jones, Hansen and Mann Made Warming with those three and you'll see the difference. "

First 3 are dead.

Will Durant:

The persistent effort to subordinate fancy to reason is the dominate quality of the Greek mind.

Ergo: Greek Literature is modern, or rather contemporary, as we find it hard to understand Dante or Milton, but Euripides and Thucydides are kin to us mentally and belong to our age.

This is because, though myths may differ, reason remains the same, and the life of reason, makes brothers of its lovers, in all times and everywhere.
