    Remember, once upon a time in the night garden it was common scientific fact that the earth was flat.

    So, your point was?

      Well it's snowing here, again, quite icy, much more than is normal for the time of year. If these models are that good they can be put forward as evidence I trust they show that CO2 has caused it to be cold and snow a lot. So if I slip over on the ice I can sue Exxon.

        Perhaps, a very long time ago, but Pythagoras worked out in about 550BC that the earth must be round.
        And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

          Myth. Though if it ever was true then it would no doubt have been your ancestors that believed it.

            Thanks for pointing that out. It's a relief, I was always worrying about where all that water went to.

              Right, yeah. The article is about the myth that olden days people thought the Earth was flat, which they didn't. (Except for Mailman's ancestors.)

                That statement reveals much about your lack of understanding of science, belief and rationality.
                It also shows what a complete cretin you are.
