Top Climate Scientst Boos Gore's Nobel

"We'll look back on all of this in 10 or 15 years and realize how foolish it was," Dr Gray said of human-caused global warming. "The human impact on the atmosphere is simply too small to have a major effect on global temperatures. It bothers me that my fellow scientists are not speaking out against something they know is wrong," he said. "But they also know that they'd never get any grants if they spoke out. I don't care about grants."

We'll see.

Paul, this guy is a meteorologist, not a climatologist. Weather is to climate as journalism is to the historian's trade. Not that he's unqualified to say his opinion, just that he's not a climate scientist.

And who is Al Gore? This guy certainly understands the factors that affect the weather, and which side of this debate made it into a contest of credentials and scientific voting?

Meteorologists remain climate scientists. Surely the vote of scientists promoted by Gore and the other alarmists includes meteorologists.
