before, pointed out by Kalroy, but I returned to it today, pointed out by Hud. It's amazing how much junk science we're inundated with every day. My favorite bit, per global warming:
This is one of the best articles I've ever read.

That was a great speech. You should check out junkscience.com. Has alot of feed for the fodder.

I just put up a post using that as a link. Junk science is accepted by far too many people.

This is one of the dumbest articles I've read in a long time. Predicting tomorrow's weather has little to do with predicting longterm climate change. Why don't you try looking up "weather" and "climate" in a dictionary, and note the difference before you endorse this drivel? But hey, a hack author of science fiction knows a lot more about the topic than people who actually, you know, study the subject as their life's work.

I'm basically an agnostic on global warming, and am concerned that science has become so politicized. It's practically reached the point where to have an informed opinion of global warming, one must personally study the equations of quantitative climatology and buy a supercomputer to run in your basement.
People make forecasts about things 100 years out all the time, though. For example: if you build a dam, you must calculate the maximum probable flooding which is likely to occur within the next century...

Crichton might be one of the best minds in our country.
His latest book, State of Fear, is actually based on that junk science speech.
Good for Crichton for standing up against the political correctness that has poisoned science and environmentalism.

If by "political correctness" you mean "best available evidence." Crichton is a NOVELIST, fool. Do you get your information on the tax code from John Updike?
