FRed Singer on the latest IPCC scare–nice word

Well I can’t add much to what is the usual thorough job by Fred Singer, so maybe i just get out of the way?

Well I could say it is very good that Thomas Lifson, the extraordinary editor and proprieter of American Thinker is very hospitable to contributions by Fred Singer.  Fred’s a prolific wizard, got a PhD at a place called Princeton when it had Einstein on the faculty, Happer and he are allies.  Fred was one of the science founders of the satellite system for making meteorological observations and measurements.  He is Emeritus Prof at U of VA and a vigorous and energetic man, flying all over and engaging in the debate and public education efforts.   

Amazing guy, and here is one of his more comprehensive and insightful essays on the state of the climate warming/change debate with an ample dab of discussion on why the IPCC is a project that is or will be on life support.  How they are or are not handling their modeling crisis.  Fred wrote a nice book on the importance of the sun and sunspot activity cycles.   But that’s just one example of what he has done.  Proof that life is an adventure and you can grab hold and get a good ride–Fred is still in the game and doing quite well, I do believe.

Let's talk predictions and forecasting on climate.

The graph released a couple of months ago by Roy Spencer our ally who is in charge of the satellite program on weather at Huntsville with John Christy, was a killer. The graph showed clearly the divergence of the IPCC modeler’s predictions from the actual. That’s called failing the forecast test–why are we not surprised? Spencer/Christy showed that there is no reason to consider the IPCC reliable on anything. They had the evidence. Continue reading Let's talk predictions and forecasting on climate.
