Live from a white spot in a purple nation on a blue planet...

Well, another scientist has left the ranks of the "climate change" nuthouse.  Why was he there in the first place?  Money, fervor, and all the other trappings of a cult.

The evidence was not conclusive, but why wait until we were certain when it appeared we needed to act quickly? Soon government and the scientific community were working together and lots of science research jobs were created. We scientists had political support, the ear of government, big budgets, and we felt fairly important and useful (well, I did anyway). It was great. We were working to save the planet.

But since 1999 new evidence has seriously weakened the case that carbon emissions are the main cause of global warming, and by 2007 the evidence was pretty conclusive that carbon played only a minor role and was not the main cause of the recent global warming. As Lord Keynes famously said, "When the facts change, I change my mind. What do you do, sir?"

The funny part is yet to come.  He mentions this particularly fascinating item later on:

The greenhouse signature is missing.

What makes this so hysterical is that he's right.  Lord Christopher Monckton has been saying the same thing for years, yet people have called him crazy and stupid.  His findings on the lack of a global warming heat signature in the atmosphere are absolutely damning for the church of Gore.

I'm sorry, kids, but there is no Santa Claus, Easter Bunny, or global warming.  Thank you, David Evans, for coming clean.  It would be nice if the other "scientists" would be as honest as you are.  Money talks, I suppose, but it would be nice if honor had a louder voice in the scientific community, for a change.
