‘Debunked’ by the wise sages you place as beyond question no doubt. The fact is that video shows how Christy has manipulated data. There are no other ways about it, and if you place trust in that it makes me doubt all your credibility in model assessment. There are no two ways about it. Improper smoothing to minimise results and just showing an average of an ensemble of models is dodgy. It’s quite clear you don’t understand quite why this is erroneous. Showing just an average of climate models to compare with has never been shown to be proper use. Pinning your tail to this just makes me doubt your authority further from your proclamations and increase confidence in my disregard of them.

If you’re leaving me with archaic ‘controversies’ about clouds, then there’s not much more to do than raise an eyebrow. Of course clouds induce complexity, as I keep saying, no-one is arguing this is simple. However, we have evidence of how clouds feed into the recent climate trend, including as a feedback mechanism. Saying that cloud cover affects climate, when increased cloud cover is a feedback mechanism, does not negate anything about the anthropogenic nature of climate change. There have been many studies into this, but of course they’re all shills out for a supercomputer, unlike the great work of those whose work cannot be questioned or it makes you duplicitous. Nor does modelling clouds for weather purposes, I presume, mean anything when climate does not equal weather. If anyone thinks it does it just demonstrates ignorance and casts further doubt on any authority in which they proclaim.

Now, that really is it. I won’t bother reading any response. I have more important deadlines to meet.
