I am both insulted and amused by my inclusion in the “vacuous political and pseudo-science class” and, regretfully, I have not participated in colloquiums sponsored by MENSA, a vacuous pseudo-science class if ever there was one. However, the scientific debate over global warming should not be trivialized and the gross misstatements printed need to be corrected. The assertion that there is no scientific consensus on the increasing CO2 content of the atmosphere and the warming of the earth’s atmosphere is simply, and emphatically, completely false.
