Barendrecht does not bother me the least, I do not live n Barendrecht, just like Joerg does not live in Oregon. The idea of putting it under my house is something I do not like though. I did read today the the people in Barendrecht will oppose the plan, and I also did read the politician responsible saying that they will store it there anyway. I just wonder if that politician would accept to be beheaded if anything went wrong. Houses in Barendrecht will likely drop in price considerably. Why do you not move there?

The NOAAA web-site, which you snipped http://www.esrl.noaa.gov/gmd/aggi/ doesn't give a specific figure, but does give a graph - Figure 3 - of the measured CO2 forcing rising with CO2 concentration, showing it to have reached 1.7 Watts per square metre. The introduction at the top of the web-page makes it clear that the uncertainty on this figure is around 10%, which matches the Colorado numbers. Your claim was "The AGW contribution alleged from CO2 is, well, not even clear. A range of estimates from ~0.25 to 1 W/m^2 out of roughly 300W/m^2 has been offered." You can't substantiate this claim, or tell us where you got it, and in fact it seems to be flat out wrong. Do tell us again how much you know about climate modelling, and about the excellent advice you can get from someone directly involved in the subject - we need a good laugh. -- Bill Sloman, Nijmegen>

Get a life, guys. You'll never be good climatologists. If you work at it, you may aspire to being passable circuit designers. John
