Strawman. Sharmuta, that test can be easily replicated to show indisputable results. Please show me an easily-replicated test that can predict future climate with 100% certainty. And I’m not talking about statistical models — I’m talking about an actual experiment that can be verified as that’s the example you’ve used.

To use LVQ’s medical analogy, which is actually quite good: it has been shown that smoking is a major factor causing lung cancer. Now, not everyone who smokes will get lung cancer. (And some people who don’t smoke DO get lung cancer.) Maybe you are one of the lucky ones. A lot of people continue to smoke believing they are immune. But if I were your doctor, I would strongly recommend you quit. And if you knew how to play the odds, you would quit.

As much as I wish to continue the debate, the salt mines are calling and they are looking very very busy, so I doubt I will be able to post again.
