RE: Global Warming
Michael, here are some preliminary citations, from The New York Times. A simple search of the Archives turned up close to 300 articles on global warming. I was not going to pay $1.50 apiece to download them, but the citations are followed by the first several sentences of the article, so that you can tell what they are about, more or less. I read through about half the list, and picked out just the citations that clearly dealt specifically with the issues you mentioned. (Almost all the opening sentences contained the word "debate", but that is not specific enough). (Another short search, looking for S. Fred Singer, turned up several more.)
