On Gavin Schmidt and Debating

He doesn't do it anymore. Ever since that fateful night when Richard Lindzen and Michael Crichton wiped the floor with him and that lady from the Union of Concerned (as in concerned that their research money will eventually evaporate) Scientists, the dude won't even go on camera with a skeptic anymore. Yeah, this whole global warming (er, I mean, climate change) debate is over alright.

Back when I dealt with NASA a few times in the 80-90s, I was impressed with the caliber of their
scientists. Sorry to hear that Dr. Schmidt is a poor debater.
Could be POV: the fundies think
the same of Richard Dawkins.

And 2 of those scientists are Roy Spencer and John Christy, creators of the satellite temperature readings and winners of the NASA award for outstanding achievement. Skeptics.
