What you say is true, warmer air can contain more water. The dew point graph. Thank you for reminding me of that point. But the converse is not true. Just because the air is warm it does not mean the air contains a lot of water. On a clear night, the "warmth" from the day is radiated away faster then on a cloudy night. It is a phenomena that is generally understood. Correctly as i see it. Or am I wrong on your point ?

"Global Warming" sure is a touchy subject, one has to be careful with the words. Here is the greenhouse effect in action. I gotta say the words "space heater" not "blankets" as that would be deemed "junk science" and my reputation as a climate scientist be ever tarnished !!! I will let the IR "downwelling" do the talking See the graph vs cloud cover here. e-education.psu.edu Isn't "Downwelling" a bit of a wimpy convection type of word?? It sounds to me like someone trying to piss in a swimming pool hoping nobody notices. Wouldn't a nice phrase like "Earthbound IR radiation" you know ... straight down at the speed of light, be more like whats happening? .
