Coyote Blog has a great point regarding one of the Climategate 2.0 emails
I normally object to the ways in which global warming alarmists portray skeptics. Â But I will accept this from Phil Jones
They [skeptics] mostly look at observation papers and ignore modelling ones, as they believe by default models are wrong!
I can’t count the number of times I’ve derided the silly “50-100 years out” notion when it comes to anthropogenic global warming. That time period comes simply from models (and wishful, unscientific thinking), yet, these same Warmist models never seem to be able to project what is going to happen in the short term. Furthermore, their “models” did not account for the current 10-15 year stagnation of global temperatures. It sure can’t account for having 2-4 years of cold, snowy winters. Or 1/3 of monitoring stations recording decreases in temperatures. Computers are only going to give out based on what is put in, and, if they tend to ignore things like the Sun, water vapor (the number 1 greenhouse gas), and, yes, real world data, it’s garbage in/garbage out. The models are designed to prop up a dying cult in order to keep the money train a rollin’.
Because models of a radically non-linear system (mumble “chaotic” here) are, by necessity, crap.
