re: #418 Obdicut

There are plenty of people better qualified than I to do that, Walter. I was merely explaining that peer-review, while absolutely vital to the scientific process, is not the only way that scientific information gets out there. But, again, if someone is unable to produce any peer-reviewed papers supporting their position, it is very unlikely that position has merit.

Freetoken, I think, did a good summation of this report in the context of the IPCC.

Then why would the IPCC use grey material (by their own admission) to head this certain report about Himalayan glacier melting? I guess they didn’t have any peer-reviewed material produced to back the claim up?
