It is more than a week since I posted "On Hiding the Decline and Rebuilding Trust part I (of LXXV)" in an effort to build bridges by addressing the single most important issue in climate science: the hockey stick graph on the 1999 WMO broschure cover. As all my readers can observe, one person was suspiciously absent from the ensuing discussion: Gavin Smith. It is very disappointing: Gavin's absence is definitely not helping to restore the public's trust in science, and it is in no way bringing us any closer to a reconciliation between alarmists and skeptics. It is rather more like a kick on the shin from a petulant child!
Of course Gavin didn't fare well at Climate Etc when he tried to defend the indefensible. And he surely knows that he will have an even harder time at my blog. He knows that no matter what he says we will not believe him. He knows that he will be shouted down and then FOIed down if he dares to show his face here! And he knows that we would advertise his utter defeat and humiliation on sites such as WUWT (and boost our hit count)! So it is not surprise that childish Gavin doesn't dare to discuss with us grown-ups!

Instead, Gavin prefers to hide at the Team's notorious blog, RealClimate, where critical comments are systematically censored and the authors of the comments can be traced and put on the secret UN black list; where the blog owners can edit comments at will and write fake comments with fake pseudonyms pretending to support them or pretending to be silly and clueless "skeptics"; and where a horde of fanatical trolls launch massive ad-hominem and personal attacks towards anybody daring to question any aspect of their climate pseudo-dogma. It is upsetting that Gavin and his accomplices are spending tax-payers' money to work on their ivory-tower blog, which by the way very few people ever read or comment. RealClimate is also rumored to receive financial support from George Soros, Maurice Strong, the Rome Club, the Bilderberg Group, the Vatican, the Freemasons, the Rosicrucians, third-world kleptocrats, the Russian Mafia, and Margaret Thatcher.
No wonder people rather visit uncensored real science blogs like this one, where we address the real questions! It is here that Joe Six-Pack and his friends come for accurate and reliable information about climate science, and for informed and constructive discussions and balanced and fair commentary. Indeed, Gavin's silence proves once more what an important player in the blogsciencophere "The Climate Scum" has become. We are now so big and well respected that the Team is scared witless! This is the final nail in the coffin of the global warming swindle!
Persquere solum pullum
You are so right, baron!
ReplyDeleteI don't trust RealClimate at all. They are so full of tricks"
ReplyDeleteGavin is a chicken little!
ReplyDeleteI used to believe in climate change, but then I learned about the hockey stick fraud. Now I know it is all a bag of lies!
ReplyDeleteYou nailed it. This is the best climate blog!
ReplyDeleteExcellent analysis as usual, baron!
ReplyDeleteMy experience was eerily similar to Bob Brown's. I too used to believe in it (CAGW). So much so that one day I was measuring my roof for solar panels but then my neighbour said that Gavin Smith was refusing to debate him on the internet because the hockey stick was a fraud. My neighbour is an engineer or doctor or some sort, I believe.
ReplyDeleteI came down off the ladder and I haven't looked back. I may start another climate science blog to help get my word out. And I will post here as much as I conceivably can.

Also, Gavin could handily find the time to answer our simple accusations if he spent a little less time playing poker!

The original posts you linked to made my head spin with all the claims and counter claims. Over 1400 comments for a single post? Come on! How can anybody follow all that? I had to find a short cut, to cut the "Gorgon Gnot", and so I searchinated for the insult. Warmist insults mean that their arguments are scientifically bankruptured! Then they hide in their own blog sites like turtles hiding in their shells.
ReplyDeleteObviously, these squalid freedom-hating, Monbiot-loving, Goreist meat puppets are denigrating good honest hard-working thoughtful skeptics with their accusations of fuzzy thinking and dishonesty. That's insulting! Cutting them apart verbally in a debate is too good for them. We should simply laugh at them! Ha Ha Ha!
I rest my case, your honor. God Save the Baron!
If global warming is real, then why is it cold in my fridge?
ReplyDeleteAnswer that warmofascist sceintists!

I'm afraid to say that it was obvious nobody from "the team" world turn up here Baron.
ReplyDeleteIt's quite clear that when they're not stream-of-consciousness writing groundless and absolute bilge for ICCCP reports, their only other "talent" is letting loose torrents of ad hominid invective and bile at honest researchers.
Just look at recent events where poor Professor Curie was harangued and stalked for her "facts" on sensitivity by Schmidt on her blog. A more insensitive display would be hard to imagine.
And given his total insensitivity to Judith's great bridge club idea, it's probably for the best that he hasn't turned up. You'd only at best have had some novel but disgusting epithets hurled at you, if RC website normality is anything to go by.
The fact that Smith doesn't come here and respond proves that he and the team know they wouldn't win in a debate with you or your readers, Baron!

Of course the über-fraud Gavin Schmidt doesn't want to respond. These "climate" "sceintists" have nothing to gain from an honest dialogue with sincere sceptics like yourself, Baron, as this will only expose the major loopholes in their "theoreis". That's why they prefer to ignore all alternative views and operate in a parallel blogosphere, totally disconnected from reality. But as I've argued before, we have also nothing to gain from an open debate with these fraudsters. No matter what evidence and logic we come up with, nothing will change their belief in "global" "warming" and they will hit back with vicious ad-homomen attacks. That's why it's better not to listen to people like Schmidt at all. We already know that they are wrong and we are right, so there is no reason to listen to their latest lies, lies and statistics.
