I wanted to use this cartoon, and this was the first appropriate thread that I came across.

So they are saying the weather predictions are actually accurate if we can predict 2099. Booya!!!

If you want to be taken seriously on this topic, you should first learn the difference between weather and climate. That would be a good start.

Not understanding the difference between climate and weather is a common mistake. This mistake is made by people on both sides of the fence. However, making that mistake is a sure sign that your opinion on climate change is worthless. That's the point I was trying to make.

supporting a hypothesis which is not backed by observed data is equally worthless. in addition, believing only on results from non validated computer models is more than useless, its idiotic.

It's a good thing we have you Jack. Clearly those thousands of climate scientist who trained and dedicated part of their lives to the study of climate are idiotic, useless and worthless. Thanks for saving us !

Jack97, serious question, do you even ski????

I don't think I've ever seen you post in actual ski related threads, just politically charged threads such as this one that tie into skiing.

lol....using that consensus argument again? i give creds to those scientist in charge of measuring and ensuring the quality of those data sets.

wrt to your hyperbole, they are not useless and worthless. its the ones who support who support the hypothesis AGW that are useless.... getting back to the topic, they are the reason we have another term.
