Please define "scientist." I do not consider social "scientists", ie. political "scientists," sociologists, psychologists, etc. to be qualified to comment on issues regarding the hard sciences. Nor does a PhD in physics qualify one to perform open heart surgery. One has to consider the scientific pedigrees of those "scientists" signing onto the global warming postulate. -- Remove _'s from email address to talk to me.

Well, that is unwise of you. There are many issues "regarding th hard sciences" that the hard scientists would be least qualified to comment on. -- dorayme

Yet you believe that those in the "soft sciences" are qualified to comment on the "hard sciences"? ...particularly those that are not well understood? |
